I see Xbox winning black Friday

BTW MS would have no clue what Sony sold until the NPD gives an estimate. NPD numbers are nothing but close estimates anyways.

I'm sure MS had a strong BF. I don't see the issue with this statement.



Aren't the Xbox bundles cheaper and offer more games?





They either lost or it was too close to call. As many of us keep saying, Pro preorders mean a PS4 win for Nov. Sony will claw back what they've lost in the last 4 months in the US while stretching the lead WW significantly again.



 

The PS5 Exists.

I heard that it's on price parity with PS4, and only one game bundled in. Anyone who can confirm?

In the UK the retailer Game has price parity. 

 

The PS4s comes with Fifa and Uncharted 4. the X1S comes with Fifa and Minecraft. I would have thought the X1 would have been cheaper.

In the US the prices were the same and the Xbox came with one game, and that game depended on the bundle. The PS4 came with the UC4 bundle and rachet & clank plus TLOUR.



is this pre damage control?

It was Sony this year that went for the cheap bundles as the original Black Friday prices that went live in the UK at 8PM Thursday across Amazon, GAME had the PS4 slim cheaper at £199 for Uncharted + Fifa 17 whilst the cheapest Xbox One S bundle was at £229 giving the PS4 slim a £30 cheaper bundle and then sometime late Friday afternoon/evening MS priced matched them to £199 with a Minecraft + Forza Horizon 3 bundle.



They know they crushed it and they are playing it cool. A real class act.

Probably smashed Europe too
