That's Versus when he was a small cute kid.



It looks pretty close right now on Amazon.

Well, if Amazon is anything to go by, which it should be now that the GeOW4 bundle is back, looks like PS4 is going to win BF. Well, if Sony shipped enough, anyway.

When the Pro was winning it was all about the Slim not doing well, now the Slim is doing well and the Pro isn't, we can start talking about how the Pro is failing. That's the stupidity of breaking the PS4 family up like that.

Lol, completely agree. It's ok, though, reality always has a way of bitch slapping you if you ignore it for too long.

Not close at all, Just Dance has officially won this gen

Jason, how do you come to that conclusion? 'On Amazon' it looks like a obvious win for the PS4 so I'd be interested in hearing your thinking. ALL month the PS4 has lead by at least TWO PS4 SKUs (sometimes as many as FOUR) and we had nearly TWO days when the XB1 lead (TWO 'days'). At the moment the PS4 is at #06 (up) and the XB1 is at #36 (down)

I see absolutely nothing to suggest things are 'close' on Amazon.



 

The PS5 Exists.

if you ignore anything that is not just the current rank, lol
but who cares about context these days on the internet...

Amazon is a good indicator based on trends. Often rankings on Amazon would follow to other retailers. It was never used to predict actual sales. It's used to see the popular console for the month and therefore winner. Amazon is a very large retailer, it's not oblivious to think buying trends would be the same at most other retailers. Which they have been ( for example---- http://www.gamestop.com/browse/consoles?nav=28-xu0,13ffff2412-4f )

These past couple months have brought out the Amazon doubters in droves and it's frankly getting annoying. 3 years of a perfect track record and now Amazon is not indicative of the market when obviously there are pretty good reasons why it's been off. The tracking of only one console at that.



Formerly ilovegirls69  :(

Amazon never had a perfect track to begin with.

However it was more acurated when there wasnt a half a duzen or more bundles.
