No word yet for US is really a stupid move from Sony.Unleash the Kraken, Sony.
White PS4 bundle with GTA V at $399 = Master Chief & Cortana sobbing.

Oh you...
John, you post in the NPDs every month and keep a close eye on NPDs, so why did you get this wrong so badly? Plus beside all that, US Destiny numbers vs WW console shipment numbers?
Destiny selling a lot more on Xbox One.
Despite the double digit millions Sony invested in the title.
Just throwing that stat out there for fun.
while I would enjoy another Sony month in November I don't think they have enough to get over the price drop and MCC.
GTAV might be a wild card though.
They are closer in sales than Xbox One and PS4.The harsher part is that the sentence keeps grouping the Wii U and XBone.
People say that, but is there any real reason to think a generation is hurt by dominance? Last generation was the only close one really. It wasn't notably better to me, in fact, it was the worst.I don't think super domination is good for our industry right now. Microsoft is doing a lot of good things with Xbox and want them to be successful as the PS4.
Damn...
what the heck does Destiny have to do with this current thread and hardware sales?
lol
DAT THIRST amirite? No Gamez! thats why it is selling better /s

Console hardware sales don't always tell the full story for the industry as a whole.
Just talking about US for now
GTA V Bundle needs to happen, or else I am pretty sure X1 has November.
Knew it was 2:1. I expect the gap to really widen come Christmas.
I'm calling 2.5:1 by March 2015 with 3:1 (maybe even 3.5:1) by this time next year.

GTA5 might not be a wildcard. There doesn't look like there will be a bundle in the U.S.
So Sony in America don't really have anything to counter.....unless they announce something.

MS should just nuke the Xbone. They can't be making any cash, and I doubt the Xbone business model has a contingency plan for eaking out profit as a middling second or third place finisher. Gaming console market is never going to be bigger than 100mm units over any hardware's lifetime. Significant money but not for MS. They should just walk away and leave this one to the Japanese. They don't have the talent or the will to win.
Probably because we know the ratio is roughly the same for sold-through numbers as well. Both companies have plenty of systems sitting on store shelves now.
Don't know which region, but I remember seeing this:

It's "selling" more because the free copies are counted.
I don't think super domination is good for our industry right now. Microsoft is doing a lot of good things with Xbox and want them to be successful as the PS4.
I don't think most people really care about first parties. Maybe they like Halo and Uncharted, maybe they know they're made by the people that make the console, but for the most part, I don't think people distinguish between first and third party releases in any meaningful way.I don't really care for sales but it is surprising that Sony still are going so strong considering how disappointing and miserable the console has been IMO in 2014 from a first party perspective. Good for them either way. Since 2015 is so epic with loads of releases I expect the PS4 to continue selling well.

It's easy to miss as the giant german USK sticker is missing.EU (PEGI rating in the corner)
I think the idea behind the article was that you are as conservative as possible for the PS4 and as generous as possible for the Xbox One and then still show that there is a sizable difference.Ars admitting that "we were extremely generous to the xbox one".
I never thought id see the day.
No its not.Destiny selling a lot more on Xbox One.

Except for the fact that the Xbox One has consistently been the same price as or cheaper than the PS4 through price cuts and bundles for the last six months or longer.Or, more plausibly, they're still just paying attention to price.
But, if you are talking about console sales, the last generation was not remotely close.People say that, but is there any real reason to think a generation is hurt by dominance? Last generation was the only close one really. It wasn't notably better to me, in fact, it was the worst.
