It's 6.17 million shipped.

I agree somewhat about there being diversity, but this emanates primarily from 2nd/3rd party studios.
But, Ken Lobb should not be comparing their output with Sony. It's laughable considering the lions share of SCE IP are developed internally - quite the opposite of Microsoft.
It's easy to claim diversity when blank cheques are being thrown around at external developers.
I'm talking about Microsoft Games Studios output - not 2nd/3rd party.
Anyone with even a morsel of intelligence (excluding diehard Xbox fanboys with rose-tinted glasses) should be insulted by how rapid the turnaround was once sales of Xbox One started tanking.
Are you not insulted that things only changed once their poisonous vision of what the gaming industry should be backfired and was thrown back at them?
This just proves that if Xbox ...

It seems strangely peculiar how every statement that comes out of Microsoft lately is geared toward the 'core'' gamer.
Where was this sentiment when they were ramming TV, TV, Entertainment, Kinect, disastrous restrictions, and a general attitude of contempt for the ''core'' gamer?
Seems very disingenuous, and borderline insulting.
And to counter Ken Lobb's argument, compare 2010-2013 with Sony and Microsoft - w...

I've never wrote N4G sucks. I love this site - the amount of times I've almost cried from laughter reading the comments from ''supporters'' of each console is numbering quite high.
It's just that the proliferation of rumors has gone out of hand lately - I've been visiting N4G for a long time now, and I don't recall ever seeing so many rumors fly up and around the site - but is N4G, so you have to take it at...
@wardestroyr I understand it's N4G - everyone loves rumors. That's why they reach the most degrees on the site.
Your a good writer, and seem very adept at hunting out possible stories, but why don't you start writing features on top of reporting the rumors.
I've got no agenda with Dualshockers. I'm a regular visitor. Just dismayed at the amount of rumors floating about lately.
I don't have a problem with Dualshockers. I'm a fan, actually. Well, I was.
I'm wondering what has happened to this site because the majority of it's ''content'' now is rumors, speculation, what ifs, and stories based around twitter messages from Thuway, Mort, and others.
And can I ask, why do you take such a personal interest in what sites I frequent?
That's kind of unsettling, and insane - do you know the...
Dualshockers, go and report about news - you know, actual confirmed news.
The output from this site has been almost nothing but rumors and speculation from neogaf.
It's such a tabloid of a website.
I can actually tell where the articles are from just by reading the headline.
Oh Dualshockers, the equivalent to the sun newspaper in the gaming industry.
Sensationalist headlines and clickbait articles.
Stunningly beautiful.
Sony, please acquire Ready at Dawn!
Unbelievable.
The power of PS4 at play. :D
This post highlights why taking magic mushrooms is not advisable.
Keep fighting the good fight.
If his job title means being disingenuous at every given opportunity, then he should get a promotion.
Fair play to Microsoft for turning things around for Xbox One, but I can't help but feel this statement about being the fastest selling console for November comes across as a little desperate.
At least it shows console gaming is healthy and has a bright future ahead, contrary to what elements of the media would like you to believe.
Oh Larry.
Reaching dangerous levels of spin right there.
Does anybody genuinely believe that Microsoft is going to cut the price of the Xbox One to $399 before it launches?
There is a minuscule chance of that happening.
The Xbox One will sell out at launch irrespective of price - so what would cutting the price accomplish. Better PR?
Everybody should look to 2014 for a price cut - Microsoft will assess the damage to the Xbox brand in early 2014 when both consoles actually start competing with each ...
If anything, we need to go harder on the XBone.
For the sake of consumers everywhere, this console needs to be wiped from existence.
And, the worse part is I was actually a fan of Xbox - this is the most disastrous PR I have ever witnessed.
Hopefully Disney will start to make use of all the properties they acquired with Lucasarts.
Use the power of the cloud to regain 1st place.
No, but seriously, to even attempt to gain marketshare from PS4, Xbox One must:
- Drop Kinect.
- Drop Price.
- Stellar E3.
- Strengthen 1st Party.
- New IP.
- Fire Major Nelson, Penello, Medhi
- Fire PR agency for Xbox
