Xbox taking back that throne baby!

Folks, you need to stop this. The only reason the XB1 won last month is because of pre-orders, and the only reason they won the month before (by 10k) is because they were selling the old stock off at $50 - $100 off with 2/3/4 games and a $50 gift voucher. Nobody is saying that they can't turn it around (in the US) but right now there's nothing at all to suggest Sony isn't still in the driving seat. It just makes you look silly in the long run. This isn't downplaying anything before anyone says anything, this is just common sense.

Give it time and see. Who knows what will happen in the coming months. Perhaps MS will eventually be able to turn things around but right now it's back to normal with the PS4 outselling the XB1, and the PS4 will take November for exactly the same reason the XB1 took August.

Comment was intended as satire. PS4 is obviously this gen's winner. It has the games. The sales. The install base. The popularity. I myself however don't care about any of that and play games on all platforms. Whether it's PlayStation, Xbox or Nintendo, as long as the games are good, I'll play them.

Looks like Cream is MIA too. Thus NPD has successfully quelled all the leakers.
