Forums - Sales - MSs XB1 Is Starting To Slowly Take Over The World... And Theres Nothing Sony Can Do About It!

 

Will the XB1 start a sales global domination next year

lol 211 36.38%
 
yeah 98 16.90%
 
maybe 34 5.86%
 
no 235 40.52%
 
Total:578

It's mainly the price, people though, well, the games don't tun a well as on the PS4.. but hey it's much cheaper too... so let's go...

Now if it keeps goig like this, MS may sell almost as much consoles as Sony on a global level (USA is not the world) this is mainly happening because Japan does not seem to be bying consoles anymore, not a lot anyway which is sad because they made the modern gaming industry. Japan used to sell more consoles than EU!

They don't count digital downloads at vgchartz, You already know this.  So 390K plus how many Xbox bundles? So somewhere around 600,000. Which is really good for a new game, in that genre, with the install base in 4 weeks.

But the game was already bundled from the beggining and still only sold 390K (VGC counts bundles as far as I know), I'm talking the first 4 weeks and it UNDERPERFORMED thats why I said "on their own", sure MS throw more money around and cut the price for BF (not sure if they also included a another free game). Where are you getting 600K in the first 4 weeks? you mean 50% of sales were digital? thats impossible

Wolfenteins did 390K the first week on PS4 and thats with no digital sales included too.

They at least shipped 200,000 Sunset bundles. What they only shipped 10 of them right?


So VGC numbers for the first 4 weeks are wrong? they also do not include bundles for some reason?



This seems improbable :p If the combined effect of major bundles, promotions, the MCC and a significant price cut weren't enough to pull the X1 even close to inning a month WW, it's unlikely it will ever manage to do it consistently enough to close the current (and growing) gap.

This also doesn't account for the fact that Sony still have their price-cut card at hand. The X1's aforementioned inability to win WW was against a console with almost the same entry price it launch with. It Sony were to cut it by $50 the X1 would have an even hard time.

On a side note, cherry picking is a poor platform to build an argument. Why mentions titles like QB, Halo and Gears, but downplay Sony's offerings (1886, Uncharted 4, Bloodborne, God of War etc) as "a couple of indie games and gained console exclusiveness to some fighting game". Doing thing like that gives the impression you're trying to push an agenda. Not saying you are, but that's what it implies. Seeing as it's not something i can remember seeing you do before, i'm inclined to believe this is a joke thread :p



Clickbait.



I'm now filled with determination.

Considering "LOL" was what I did before I even saw there was a poll, it was absolutely appropriate that was an option!!

Edit* 

Appropriate in regards to my own personal opinion. Not meaning to come off as a hater. The One has owned the US the month of November.. if the price drop sticks (after Jan 1st) I'm sure it will continue. Although I believe it will most likely run side by side with the PS4 in the US, and obviously 2nd WW. IMO. 



Aww BHR I know you're trying to get this thread in so that you can look like you made the right prediciton in the end, but it's not going to happen. xb1 is STILL 700k behind in USA already, and every week loses 150k in RoW

EDIT: Damnit. it was a joke thread.

No, the game is a digital download, no they don't include it..



Is this a joke thread or something?

They had to almost literally set money on fire to win the month, and it's an unsustainable business model. What happens when the price goes back up and Sony has their inevitable price drop?

They're thin on exclusives, and when they do score a third party exclusive, it's a relative flop like SO or Tomb Raider vs Bloodborne and Street Fighter.

I want to know who made the most profit in the past month.
