Xbone Sold 140k while PS3 sold 160k+

The Xbox One outsold the Xbox 360 two-to-one in the UK when you compare both console's launch periods.

The Xbox 360 launches in the UK in 2005 - nearly eight years ago.

Sales of the Xbox One, which launched on Friday 22nd November, amounted to 80 per cent of all home consoles sold this week.

10 of the 16 Xbox One launch titles debuted in the UK's top 40 chart, which counts physical sales only - exactly the same number of titles that appeared in the top 40 of the week of the Xbox 360's launch.

With a 328 per cent increase in sales, FIFA 14 returns to number one after a seven week absence. The lead format is the Xbox One version, which Chart-Track notes is the best-selling Xbox One game. But this is down to it being included in the Xbox One Day 1 edition, so it's a slightly misleading chart this week.

The PlayStation 4 version of FIFA 14 charts, despite the console not going on sale in the UK until this Friday, 29th November.

Call of Duty: Ghosts drops to second place after two weeks at the top. The PS4 and Xbox One versions bother released ahead of their consoles.

Battlefield 4 is in number three, boosted by the release of the Xbox One version. Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is similarly boosted into fourth place, with both the PS4 and Xbox One versions out this week.

Xbox One exclusive Forza 5 debuts at number five, but, like FIFA 14, benefited from being bundled in with some Xbox One consoles. Lego Marvel Super Heroes is sixth. Dead Rising 3 is in at seven. 3DS game The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds debuts at nine. The third biggest Xbox One exclusive is Ryse: Son of Rome, which enters the chart in tenth place.

THis is why you cows get made fun of.

The XB1 outsold the 360 at launch. Then, you go and talk about the PS3? The PS3 lost in the UK.

This has to be the dumbest thread I have read this morning.

Wait, so you're claiming XboxDone while the X1outsold the previous xbox 2 to 1? I know PS4 outsold it, but from numbers, there is a greater clamor for their new console.

Must be frustrating to Microsoft that all those PR dollars were wasted on failed tactics and reassurance. It's a good launch for them worldwide but it really looks small compared to what Sony did with only 2 countries. It's looking like Sony has this gen locked

That's still very good when you remember that price tag and that more people are waiting for the PS4 to launch. In fact it's about to overtake the WiiU in the UK already. So lets turn our derision there, to the true failure.

Oh come on... people on here stopped caring about the Wii U ages ago. The true battle is MS/Sony and MS are failing badly... lets not turn our attention away.... lets focus on MS's failure :)

It's the 3rd biggest UK launch after PSP & PS3 unless I'm mistaken. No failure to be seen here. Now outside of USA/UK, yeah it's going to get its clock utterly cleaned.

@Pokemon266: The fact that you used a hash tag makes you a huge hipster douchebag. Both the PS4 and Xbox One have been huge successes at launch, shut your fanboy ass up.

How does this prove anything? No ones stops to think that MS produced more consoles than Sony? *SMH*

@RedentSC: that's ok then, i went in HMV, Game, Tesco and Smyths, all gone. AFAIK they had stopped taking pre-orders, not to worry i cancelled my pre-orders months ago and haven't really kept up to be fair.

i did get to try a PS4 in smyths though, the controller wasn't charged enough and there were no games, but i really dislike the DS4, no way am i getting a PS4, can't go back to that crappy controller.

lol..

Funny how the complete industry say the complete opposite about the controller,only a small group of fanboys actually flame the DS4,is great and feels great.

@StormyJoe said:

Ummm... The XB1 is SOLD OUT. You can't do any better than SOLD OUT.

Cows = dumb.

Yeah that sold out is like the one in US apparently sold out in some stores not in all.

Both consoles look shoddy at the moment. I know there is the whole "buyers excitement" to getting it on release, but they just look like overpriced upgrades that aren't deserving of their pricetags.

That's pretty sad.

I'm in London and all my local stores have day 1 editions available. This thing has flopped in the UK.

XB1 launch sales have doubled the 360 launch sales.

but according to cows, the PS3 was going to sell more in one day than the xbox 360 had in a year, so didn't work out too well did it? PS3 finished in last place.

every xb1 unit in the UK seems to have been sold anyway, not sure how selling every unit they could make is a bad thing. but ok.

PS3 has outsold the 360 by 1 million so far.

I said earlier that my local GAME still has 2 XBox Ones.

Amendment to that, asked the manager this time and he said sold out of XBOs with a waiting line till Christmas. So obviously there's quite a lot of demand.

Apparently the guy I asked previously thought a couple that were put aside for pre orders were counted as stock.

And yet again proving my point that cows are stupid.
