Actually was kind of expected ,if you follow the "Amazon rule". XBO was outselling PS4 on Amazon for most of last month.

Wow XB1 beat ps4 without new software. Uh oh, the tide is starting to turn in the US

XB1>ps4 for the month of April thats all that matters in terms of this thread.

Except your opening thread was about the tide turning. And Xb one winning this month alone, with the factors cited by people who responded means your original post is premature at best. You are welcome to change your perspective, but you should acknowledge that your turning tide comment is possibly a little hasty.

Apologies for longer than usual quote tree, but the original post in this tree is important for context.

Cool, but 187K?... This just sounds like an all around terrible month for sales, at least in the US.

You should have listened to me back at the start of April.
