ohhh nice amazon numbers too. my stock in them is beginning to deliver as expected.

If you're talking about Amazon shares that you own, you might be interested that they are testpiloting a direct-to-Audi-trunk delivery service in Germany. With the drone pilot program going on in Canada, Amazon is going to make the whole world America fat lol.

I think he's trolling you, because the X1 is doing well, just not PS4 well. Given the similarity of the console demographics, I think it's wisest to see them as taking sales from one another. In essence, the true measure of this generation's success will be PS4/X1 v. WiiU, and the combined PS4/X1 sales numbers are massive.

He isn't trolling me, I didn't even say something in this thread before, I'm just amused by people who open a new account to say something they don't have the balls for to say with their normal account. 

True: you just happened to be the last one to cross his bridge lol.

I have a relatively loose range for Xbone and X360 LTDs in my chart that I'll post after all 3 have posted their shipments.

Xbone - 10.9 to 13.8M
X360 - 84.3 to 86.7M

Xbone is probably on the high end of that spectrum (~13M) and X360 on the low end (~85M). Let me know if something looks off though

I'm a Sony fan and I know PS4 is "destroying" X1 in sales even more than in shipping, but that don't negate that MS is doing a lot better than I expected, even more considering the problems at release... Yes it's down YoY in USA by 7% even with an entry price 150 less... but the console seems viable and profitable, that is what matters if you want to play their exclusives (which I don't plan to do at the moment, but I want the console to be there when I decide to buy it).

Decent numbers, hopefully summer will see significant growth YOY, that is where the X1 dropped to terrible sales that triggered the $349 price drop. Q1 last year was solid.

Witcher 3+Batman+Elderscrolls online and for the moment Dead Island 2. If the price drop didn't do much, hopefully those games will.

You know something I don't know? When was L4D announced?

Xbox 360 shipped 0,5 million in the same quarter; so still doing better than xbox one. The consoles were around the same price (399/299$).

The cloud is coming.

AMZ and MS are surfing this wave.

Let´s see how long it last.

And the poor XOne?

Well at the worst case scenario it´s still selling 2x its predecessor in a quarter without any major game released.

The home console market has stalled, none of the big techs seem interested in compeat in this arena. MS has a small milk cow with online services.

He meant State of Decay (I hope).
