More like Xbox version of CNN/MSNBC.

I'd say so.  And considering MS hasn't said a anything about BF in the US, I'd assume that means the PS4 won BF there, too.  I hope it also means that next year we won't get constant threads from Infoscout and whoever the other site was, because they are NOT reliable.  Nov is not going to be as close as some thought.  I think Sony is going to wipe out any gains MS made these last few months in a matter of weeks.

@ OP

Nice.  And I just have to laugh at these people who think the PS4 is not going to hit 100M.  Really?  Since the PS1, there hasn't been a single market leader who hasn't crossed 100M.  Even though the Wii dropped off significantly and had to crawl its way there, it still passed 100M.  The PS4 is going to have MUCH better legs than the Wii.  We haven't even gotten to a $199 price tag, which will happen next year.  Either as a permenant drop, or just for the holidays.  Either way, it's going to boost sales incredibly.  And then on top of that, we're going to have the PS4 Pro at $349, with maybe a $299 BF bundle, which will be a huge boost.  And PS VR will be ~$299, as well, which will help a little. 

Take that AND all the great games coming out next year, and I'm sure that 2017 is looking to be the PS4's peak year.  That means that if the PS4 ships 55M+ by the end of this year, and it will, by the end of next year it will most likely be at 75M+.  With the PS5 most likely hitting in 2019, the PS4 has plenty of time to sell that remaining 25M to hit 100M.  Hell, I think it's going to end up ~125M when all is said and done, helped in its final years with a $149 price tag.

All of those media outlets are crap, honestly.

OT: Really good numbers for the PS4. Should be able to finish 2016 slightly up YOY.

They did, but it was only "XBO sales and Live engagement were 'strong' ". That was it.

XB1 sold i 4.4ml  during Nov and Cec last year. So you're assuming if VGC XB1 will sell 2.2m? AT least it will be 28ml, and it could possibly hit 29 or 30m if the Slin gives it a big enough boost. I think PS4 will be 55 or 56m which is really good.

Oh, that's right.  If I remember correctly, that was a much weaker statement than they gave last year.

Couldn't help but smile at that. 

Wow, that's insane.

It's night and day.

BF 2015: XBO sales were up 22% over BF 2014. Bunch of Live records were broken

BF 2014: Major Nelson was clearly very happy with the XBO's performance and proudly posted pictures of XBOs going off the shelves on his Twitter. In general, Microsoft was happy with the console's performance all November long.

Yet Sony didn't say they were the best selling console on BF. Don't you think they would point that out if true?

Isn't this the 3rd upgrade of the console?

so we think it is going to do 50 mil from now in 3 years?
