Xbox Series outsold PS5 in UK in January

https://www.ign.com/articles/xbox-series-x-and-s-were-the-uks-best-selling-consoles-in-january

Sony needs to get their part shortage issues figured out fast or I bet this becomes a trend in other countries too.

75% of those Xbox Series owners are desperate Sony fans that said f it and bought an inferior system. Now they're stuck with it. If you're searching for a ps5, don't lose hope and don't be like them.

Always great to see a strong console market. 👍

This says nothing about the demand for the consoles. It’s all about getting them manufactured.

TCHBO. :P

Everybody knows that UK and Japan don't count.

Roblox is very popular here in the UK and Xbox is the only console you can play it on. Might have something to do with it.

It's more about supply than demand. Not saying that there is no delay, because there is definitely strong demand for Series X, but there are less Ps5s available.

I see the cows are already coming out to attempt to control the damage. Xbox outselling PlayStation in any market? This hasn't happened since the 7th generation. What ever will they do?

The bovine brigade can't even borrow a break these dayzz. lol

Good stuff. :P

Good for MS.

been a bad month or so for sony fannyboys who live by scores and sales.

HAH

As a UK resident I have been unable to buy a PS5 even though I want to. It is the problem with availability than demand.

Of course another problem is that a number of PS5s were stolen in transit so any new stock UK retailers receive will go to replacing the stolen ones.

@jcafcwbb:

you tried hotstock app mate

@bluestars: No - I'll wait for Amazon. I only use a few companies for my online purchases - the ones that I trust.

Makes sense...

By Lems logic of at least they're selling out, I see nothing for you guys to brag about here. This place is all about agitation, no genuine conversations to be had because of all the trolls.

Why isn't Xbox sharing its Q4 results if they're doing so well?

Now sales matter to the Xbox fannies. 😂🤣

@jcafcwbb:

yea they got amazon alerts mate...its a iphone app..nowt dodgy also have smyths,very,argos,currys and so on...they notify you when stock is available...you gotta be quick tho lol

That's...that's not what he said.

@Pedro: Hey you're a lem so i guess they matter to you to now, its time you came out of the lem closet 🤣🤣🤣

Lets be serious for a second, this news has been out there for about a week, we both know this and someone finally posted it, lems don't care for the most part, well this lem doesn't anyway.

Its nice to see this thrown in cows faces though.

Its all about the XBL revenue remember?

It's obvious that MS just had more restocks available Sony is king in the UK.

It'll probably outsell it a few more times until Sony can get it it together on the manufacturing front

Lmao, yes Pedro, come out of the closet already. Even IPDaily is calling you out on it.

Poo cows. lol :P

Don't you know? It's Sales Wars not System Wars.

Awe you angry because I am calling out your faction. 😂

I guess my bait can even sucker seasoned folks like yourself. Now you are damage controlling the new focus on sales from your faction buddies after years of downplaying it. 🤣 Don't worry, sales wouldn't matter when PS5 and Switch takes the lead again. 😎

This is just hilarious. While I want to see both systems selling well, the taste of cows getting slapped like this after a whole generation of touting PS4 sales is so sweet.

Some reports seem to show Xbox gaining on PlayStation in sales, going from being 2 million behind to 1 million. If this trend continues, I'm going to laugh REALLY hard when the cows start blabbing about how "it's games that matter" like they did when they lost the graphics war.

And while all of that is going down, I'm going to be enjoying both systems :).

Maybe because PS5's have sold out and gamers had no choice but to get a Series X for there next gen gaming needs. We all know this wouldn't have been the case if there were enough PS5's.............FACT!

PlayStation has to deliver more boxes to more countries so it's not entirely surprising.

The UK is one of the only a few places Xbox has ever done well against PlayStation.
