The gap is widening. X1 #3 PS4 #9 on hourly

Be very interesting to see January sales.


I'm not sure what would be most interesting, sales if the price isn't raised, or sales if the price is raised. It'll be interesting at least, that's for sure!

If they drop the price of the PS4 to ~$350, 2015 will probably break all previous console sale records. There's not reason to expect PS4+X1 WW sales to drop under an average of ~3.5-4 million/month. There's also that WiiU thing that I bought for my girlfriend; they're still selling those.

29/12/14 update:

#1 - $350 AC: Unity X1 bundle

#18 - PS4

#90 - PS4 Destiny bundle

No major updates, just Destiny down a spot.

Op updated



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Welfare on 31 December 2014

Halo 5 CE is above PS4 for the week of the 29th. Lol

And it looks like the XB1 stays #1 for the whole month.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Really is it ?

Impressive would be it doing that on it own, not needing a temp price cut free games and gift cards.

But ill take it as some have a different take on what awesome and accomplishment.

Sony dont need as they are still selling very well at that price especially in europe and rest of the world they have monopoly except US and UK they have Xbone being cometitive but with less price and free games. Also MS said this price is temporary so many people wanted to buy this as they cant get it same price after holidays so these sales are trick and wont continue in 2015 even though they keep 350$ price because there is no exclusives worth to buy in first half for new buyers other than for 3rd party games and already released games. 



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

If they don't need to then why did they? Also, try to stay on topic.
