MS already said the Xbox One continues to outpace the 360.
You kids need to try harder. You crack us up.

There's a guy that works for Microsoft named Aaron Greenberg. He did an interview and said that there were 28 million Xbox 360s sold by the end of 2008. These words came out of something called a human mouth. He said it, kvally! You can't deny it.

"Plus the fact we ended the year at 28 million Xbox 360s driven by tremendous global success, our top priority market this last holiday and for 2008 was Europe. That was where we significantly overinvested. We had two price drops there. We did launch level marketing, and we had our largest marketing campaign in the history of the company. I can tell you I spent a couple weeks in Europe, and you couldn’t watch 5 minutes of TV without seeing 3 Xbox ads. You couldn’t open the newspaper... it was everywhere. And it paid off." <-- This is Aaron Greenberg, kvally!

And the numbers make sense. It can't be much lower than that in 2008/2009, because they'd never be able to sell enough to hit their final 86 million global number. Do the math, kvally! This is supposed to be your own favorite company in the world, kvally!!
Xbox One won't even sell 43 million LTD at this pace. Your "Xbox One is outpacing Xbox 360" mantra is either from an outdated MS statement which has long since expired, or you're using NPD numbers, which don't work when talking about the global and lifetime numbers! Just say, "I was wrong," kvally!!!
