I don't think that will happen.

tormentos

no one knows. that's why its best to not judge a console until 2-3 years down the line. maybe even after the first year. but 6 months before is ridiculous

 

Sales of consoles influence developers and 3rd parties why do you think so many games did not make it to the xbox,and how ms all of a sudden got 3rd party support,whilke nintendo horrible sales had keep developers at a distance.

 

The PS4 will outsell the xbox one this holiday how badly who knows and that will weight in on developers and 3rd parties,oh and i did not even bring sony own games into the picture..

sony didnt show their own games at e3 and come on man, everybody knows that these consoles will be neck and neck this gen again

Polls are putting PS4 massively a head of Xbox One, yet the pre-orders are showing Xbox One is still selling even with all the negative press. Ignoring the morons that will simply say we are idiots for doing so, Microsoft have set out there plans and people are still buying because they like the games and the benefits/opportunities it gives. Microsoft its simple stick to your guns, include a game or two the $499 price and use the digital store to sell games for less than you can get on PS4 and you will have a big success initially. Follow this up with an offline mode like steam has and I think you might just win this next gen war everyone is shouting about. tdkmillsy
It's because internet poll is worldwide pre-orders are local to the US and at the end number will reflect more like internet polls

Cows don't care about sales. Just like they don't care about Bungie, shooters, indie games, or arcade scores.

Wrong. We only dont care about those things when we dont have them. :twisted:

I don't think you can tell that at all, people who voluntarily take part in online polls do not necessarily reflect the purchasing public at large.

Micro Shiz had a year headstart, priced way lower for years, and PS3 was difficult to develop for and they still couldn't win this gen.

So how could they have a chance to beat Sony when Sony does everything right?!

Sony beat themselves with PS3. They are the only ones who can beat them.

Possibly in the U.S. they could be neck and neck, but Sony has the rest of the world wrapped up.

highly unlikely. if microsoft was to go all out u.s. on the x1 and got a 80% of the 120million gamers, they could win this gen with this country alone. honestly, i dnt care who wins what. at the end of the day, im about me, not the company. all i care about is content

Yeah right they are neck and neck now,even that the PS3 launch at $600 and a year latter,now the price advantage is on Sony side and apparently even on US the xbox one will be outsold.

 

So no they will not be neck and neck this gen.

lmao they have been neck and neck since the last quarter of the last gen over 8 yrs ago. the 360 made up tremendous ground and continues to sell well and its no reason to think it wont happen again. and the ps brand will never outsell the xbox brand in the states and vice versa in japan. stop being a fanboy and look at things like normal gamers do

Disappointing they're only beating them by 50%. 

Masenkoe

It has only just begun. Besides that Americans totally dig their Microsoft consoles. Everywhere else though? Won't sell nearly as well.

I am American and can't stand their shyte or company... only use windows because I have to.... The reason American's like them so much is most are brainwashed sheeple who are fooled by marketing by what they see on the TV and don't use their heads. They started this way as kids and never learned how to think for themselves.. and see others buying so "it must be good". Or they are not informed. Many Amercians probably also think COD is a xbox exclusive. I couldn't belive some of the comments after their e3 with idiots bragging that Metal Gear, Witcher 3, battlefied 4 and Cod were Xbox exclusives..... My god are people dumb!!! It's not just America though, when MS put Killzone shadowfall screenshot on their Windows Netherlands site, there were people commenting there that Killzone had gone xbox only "take that sony fanboys" is what a few were saying..... lmao.... morons..lol.

It's good that people are going for a console that is designed to play games.

Cyberdot
All the consoles play games. The PS4 and Xbox One both play movies, tv and music as well. Shrug.. I don't see the issue there. The problems aren't games. The problem is price and policies that Microsoft is using for the Xbox One.

Can't forget about the days of Teh Cell.

just thinking about it again makes me feel all warm and fluffy inside.

Teh Cell! Supercomputer!

LOL!!! It was a supercomputer for about a month. It really didn't make much of a difference. Ended up costing Sony over $12 billion is loses.

It's a fail because every cow here thinks the Xbox One won't sell ANY consoles. lol!! 3:2 is actually impressive considering all the negative stories and posts that have been going on for over a month now. I was expecting 10:1 for the PS4. It's no where near that.

Playstation will outsell Xbox in the US. Xbox had on decent generation where Nintendo won the US marketshare overall and you think they control something. :lol:

lmao they have been neck and neck since the last quarter of the last gen over 8 yrs ago. the 360 made up tremendous ground and continues to sell well and its no reason to think it wont happen again. and the ps brand will never outsell the xbox brand in the states and vice versa in japan. stop being a fanboy and look at things like normal gamers do

lmao it's funny u said that. every console that has ever won any gen of gaming won the battle in the u.s. go ahead and look it up, i'll wait. besides that tho. so if sony or ms win, do u receive some type of compensation? im curious about why it matters who sells what? the wii sold over 100mil and still can get any kind of love from 3rd party devs.

Not surprising, Sony's outsold them since they've entered the industry, in the long run. With them launching simultaneously, I would expect Sony's more popular platform to sell better.

Starting every your post with "lmao" doesnt make it more valid. Just sayin.

 

Also we dont know if they will be neck and neck at all, how can you act like its granted? History teaches us that even well established brands can fail in this industry. What you think about Xbox brand people like you thought about Atari brand 20 years ago.

All we know is PS4 is currently outselling Xbone in terms of pre orders even in USA (and 3:2 is quite a big difference) which even I didnt expect. And its granted that the gap is bigger in the rest of the world.
