"You're counting your chickens a tad too early"

Give it a rest.

And the 'magic SDK update' will make the Xbox One's junk graphics hardware put out PS4 level graphics.

And Microsoft is 'gonna bring it' at E3.

And just wait until Halo.

Microsoft got dumped in last place with the Xbox 360 despite:

1. Rushing their console out the door a year/year and half early ...

"If the PS4 reaches that number it will solidify its position as the leader for the rest of this console generation."

With the PS4 already double the Xbox One's installed base it already has.

Nintendo is obviously having major trouble getting any traction with the Wii U. A drop down to 200 dollars would make the Wii U a nice second console to gamer's PS4 this gen. But it is hard to imagine any scenario where the Wii U magically starts outsel...

Don't care.

Insomniac hasn't put out a great game in years. Their last big game Fuse wasn't just a letdown it was outright garbage.

The 'meh' reaction to Sunset Overdrive makes it clear why Sony dumped them as a 2nd party developer.

The PS3 outsold the Xbox 360 every single year on the market while being 200 dollars more expensive.

Even the PS3's very first year it sold 10.5 million consoles while the Xbox 360 only sold 8.5 million.

So, no, this isn't like last gen in any possible way.

The PS4 is already over double the Xbox One's worldwide installed base:

PS4: 8.5 million
Xbox One: ~4 million

Yes, vgchartz doesn't 'track' anything.

It is just some kid who is a massive Xbox fan who makes up fake sales numbers from his mom's house and uploads them to his lame little fakes sales website.

He was permabanned from neogaf years ago for trying to pass off massively inflated fake Xbox 360 sales numbers.

vgchartz is to console sales as MisterXMedia is to console graphics hardware.

The Xbox One is crashing and burning. A one month bump is not going to save the Xbox One. Or make it competitive with the PS4.

Now that Microsoft has dumped the Kinect garbage the Xbox One is now left with what was already the smallest first party lineup being reduced even further due to Microsoft will have to dump their Kinect focused first party projects.

Combine that with the massive graphical power advantage the PS4 has over the Xbox One and the massive t...

LOL!

Microsoft ripped off Sony's Spyro the Dragon's Sill Point system and just renamed it

"You've unlocked a achievement"

LOL at linking to fake vgchartz numbers...

PS3 first year sales: 10.5 million
Xbox 360 first year sales: 8.5 million

The irony of someone trying use fake vgchartz numbers for the Xbox 360 is hilarious.

The hardcore Xbox fan who started the fake sales site did so for trying to use Microsoft's 'ship' numbers to retailers in an attempt to pretend they had 'sold' 10 million Xbox 360s in its first year on neogaf.

"you are over 3 million consoles behind"

More like 4 million behind Sony.

The PS4 is about 8.2 million now. It's been 5 weeks since Sony announced they were over 7 million and the PS4 has been selling roughly 230-240k/week in 2014.

The Xbox One is somewhere in the 3.8 to 3.9 million range from known official US and European sales data.

Thursday's NPD is suppose to be horrendous for the Xbox One and is most l...

Typical garbage coming from the fanboys at IGN.

The PS3 outsold the Xbox 360 by over 2 million units in its very first year on the market while being 200 dollars more expensive.

The Xbox One is getting absolutely destroyed by the PS4 in worldwide sales. The PS4 is already over 8 million while the Xbox One is around 3.8 to 3.9 million.

Sony's first price cut was thanks to the bleeding edge and incredibly expensive Blu-Ray diodes dropping i...

How can you be this delusional?

The PS3 outsold the Xbox 360 in its very first year by over 2 million consoles while being 200 dollars more expensive. And it has continued to outsell the Xbox 360 even single year on the market.

4390d ago 8 agree1 disagreeView comment

Impressive indeed.

The PS4 is easily over 8 million now - probably closer to 8.2 million right now.

It's been 5 weeks since Sony announced the official over 7 million sold figure and the PS4 has been selling somewhere in the 230-240k/week worldwide in 2014.

That is on pace for some 16-17 million PS4s in the first year.

It has nothing to do with 'growing a pair'.

Almost every single console gamer I know who doesn't already have a Wii U wants one but aren't will to spend 300 dollars on one just to play their favorite Nintendo franchises. Those games aren't going anywhere and will be just as good when the system drops down to 200 dollars.

A 200 dollar Wii U with the now fleshed out core Nintendo franchises would be flying off the shelves by both Nintendo fa...

The Xbox 360 didn't just have a high failure rate.

Microsoft knew the Xbox 360 hardware was defective in design. Yet they rushed their defective hardware out the door in a shameless attempt at inflating their installed base numbers before Nintendo and Sony launched their new consoles.

Xbox 360 review units were dying like mad at gaming press offices.

Xbox 360 demo units were dying like mad in stores kiosks.

Xbox 360s were...

uptownsoul: "I'm sorry to nit-pick"

Absolutely minor when the entire 'article' is based off a fake sales site's made up sales numbers.

The PS4 is selling well above the Wii at the same point in time. And the Xbox One sales have significantly fallen below the Xbox 360's sales at the same point in time.

4394d ago 17 agree12 disagreeView comment

76,000 units a month for all of Europe. That is a rate of less than a million a year.

It isn't selling just fine. After the initial launch sales the XB1 is now selling significantly worse than the Xbox 360 was at the same point in time.

"Actually consoles are selling more year on year and month on month."

That simply isn't true.

The Xbox One is selling at a significantly worse
rate than the Xbox 360 at the six month mark.
