Forums - Gaming - So people don't think the XB1 will beat PS4 in the US.

I think that the xbone will probably win the US because that seems to be only market MS is interested in and they're willing to do big price cuts, bundles and a lot of promotional stuff there. Now, if the playstation vue becomes the next netflix then the xbone has no chance in hell.

PS4 has yet to give us as many AAA exclusives and price drops and its still putting up a fight; I believe it can hold the fickle NA market

Indeed lol



Taking a year long ban with life control avatar against an user with such low count and that would probably leave the site if lost is silly beyond measure.

lol uncharted, the order, and bloodborne. along with the fact that ps4 is winning with a higher price.


Pretty sure those games are nowhere near as popular as Halo and Gears in the US.

Hard to say with Uncharted vs Gears. I reckon with the fact that Gears:J tanked quite badly for a Gears game there is a very good chance Uncharted 4 will outsell Gears 5(?) in the USA.

Halo has no peer. But then, in the USA Halo sells mostly to hard core Halo fans from the Xbox days (Halo 2 NA total sales = 86.5% of Halo 3 NA total sales. Xbox NA sales = 32.7% of Xb 360 NA sales. This means while there was huge gen on gen growth for Xbox hardware, there was very little gen on gen growth for Halo. The vast majority of gen on gen growth for Halo came from outside NA.) So that only really guarantees an Xb one install base of about 16 million. For NA, I think people put too much stock in what Halo will do for Xb one. If Halo is going to do anything significant for Xb one it will be to get a lot of people outside of NA to buy Xb one. Short term I think Halo will have the bigger effect, but when considering the whole of the generation I don't think it will have the effect some people think. The lack of significant expansion of Halo in the 7th gen in the USA is essentially why most 360 owners beyond the core 16 million who bought Xbox are a swing market and Xb one needs something other than Halo (and Gears I'd wager) to get them to stick with Xbox. If most of the 360 buyers outside that core 16 million were former PS and PS2 owners it pretty much means they are fairly well disposed to going back to PS.

You also should remember that Sony has two franchises which sell similar to Gears, Uncharted and God Of War. Also we can't say for sure how big the fanbase of Gran Turismo is in the US, so I guess overall MS doesn't have much of a lead.

Have you watched any sports anime recently?^^



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I'll take that bet!



Have you seen the 2015 line-up for PS4? It might be one of the best years in history for a console. I could be wrong but I don't see a system seller on Xbox One until Halo in November.



Lets see PSX crushed all, PS2 crushed all, PS3 crushed 360, PS4 crushed all. TAKE THAT BET! lol
