Whom do we petition to make this thread immune to the necrobump ban?

Seems like NPD for January made me get quite close to wining the x1 won't pass ps4 before march end.

Any mod that said the thread is factual and the subject is current.

Slow your roll: the PS4 is only at #8 on Amazon, and the X1 is all the way up to...#16...

This must mean X1 will outsell ps4 by 300k in February and another 300k in march for x1 to barely pass ps4.

Only logical conclusion.

It's becoming harder and harder to detect sarcasm now.
Next post from TheDrill: "NPD is not necessarily more accurate then VGChartz."

So what you are saying here is when the PS4 outsells the XB1, even by slim margins, those numbers don't count at all.  If the XB1 outsells the PS4, even if by slim margins, it will count?


No, what I am saying is that the X1 outsold the PS4 by significant numbers.

This week the PS4 outsold the X1 by what, 2k? that is not sigificant at all.

At this rate the PS4 needs years to close the hap the X1 widened.

WTF are you talking about, the PS4 still has the lead in the US, it's just widening it again after letting the XB1 do some catch up for two months... add to this that the PS4 has a pretty solid software lineup this year, and it will still have the better version of the multi-platform titles.

Unless MS offers serious deals like they did in Nov/Dec 2014 (330$ console + 50$ or 70$ in store rebate + 2 or 3 games in some places) which made the actual console like 80$ in the best cases it will not outsell the PS4 again... this is assuming Sony doesn't cut the PS4's price at 300$ at some point during the year.
