I am talking about at least 3 months of course, until november.
But if sony doesn't price cut the ps4 I wouldn't be surprised if it last forever


Wait, you think the XBO will take October?

No he is talking about for the next three months, you know, until November. 3 Months from now, in November. Like right now is november so for 3 more months until November. Why doesnt anyone understand. The same as how it is now only 2 million behind 3 months ago if you count now and then subtract 6 months, you know, in november or at least until 3 months from now in Smarch.

 

It is really quite simple.

Sony shipped 13.5M as of end of September.

MS shipped "almost" 10M as of not so long ago.

Gap is 2M. Yeah lol keep telling yourself that and it may become true.


Even at 2 millions it's 80 % close of PS4 sales basiccle, 20 % gap.

I've been saying this for years that X1 is extremely close to PS4  in the US but I was laughed at and my threads got locked, now it's the end of year, and as my prediction prediction from now on the X1 will start outselling the PS4 and then catch up with it globally in the US.

I thought you would have learned your lesson by now, apparently not.
Fully expect most of the users in this thread to tease/make fun of you come january.

Xbox 360 has dominated USA  last generation, and people forget that even with all the bad reputation, the higher price cut X1 didn't sell significantly less than the PS4 in here.

In the USA, as of today the Xbox one only sold  approximatively only 11 % less than PS4 did

And for the last few weeks X1 sold on par or even slightly more than the PS4.

Considering all the bad reputation surrounding X1, related to its DRM, the higher price, it still managed to hold its own in the US pretty solidly, and even sold more software overall than the PS4.

Now that the price cut has been announced, as well as Halo and the ability to run IE and netflix without paying for gold, I expect it to sell a lot more.

A considerable advantage is that all these announcement, especailly the price cut will convince a lot of xbox 360 owners to upgrade, and considering how well xbox 360 sold in USA, there are many of them.

The current difference between PS4 and X1 in the US is  322004 units.

That means that if xbox starts selling 10k more than it does currently,  (only a 20 % increase in sales) or about 60k, it needs only  32 weeks, or 8 months to catch up. Considering that it will sell a lot during Christmas, It will have more units sold in the US by January 2015, and start outselling it from there.

After that it will slowly grow and eventually sell more long than the PS4. (in the US)

 

EDIT: Many people consider that I claimed that it will outsell the PS4 globally, I only meant in the USA, I apologize for any formulations that lead to further confussion.

Check the frontpage, X1 outsold PS4 by more than double in the US and it will continue like this from now on as I have predicted.

Microsoft introduced their black friday sales early, and dropped the price of the console considerably until the end of the holiday period, that is combined with heavy bundling and two major exclusives launching for the system, if you think that pace s going to continue or remain unmatched, you're in for a bumpy ride this gen.

Why do you do this to yourself? You know MS released a price cut and several bundles with free games for that to happen, you know most people predicted a huge sales spike after hearing about these desperate move by MS,  you know gap in US sales won't mainting being like this after Sony applies similar holiday deals.

It will be maintained for a few weeks, the sales increases especially during holidays where X1 can sell 1 or 2 millions means it will outsell completely the PS4 in the US.

Don't worry there's more to come we won't stop laughing! I mean come on microsoft announce that they are "nearing" 10 million shipped and you assumed that they have sold 10 million units through to consumers, and you also assume ps4 is overrtracked by over half a million?

Oh right cause the PS4 will completely stop selling to a halt this holiday.
