Imagine if they had kept the original DRM policy in place .

Selling millions in software and hardware= selling poorly

I hope none of y'all take serious investment advise from that site

they are selling poorly..2-1 ratio from ps4 that is a bad ratio.....

companies do not need to offer promotions to movie products so early in the game, its not a good look when you are slipping away to a half margin and when you can readily find an xbox and not a ps4...

How much they sell relative to another product only matters for online arguments. As long as they are hitting their own sales goals, which they are, then the rest of it doesn't really matter. Sure they'd like to sell more, but in no way is it selling "poorly"

And your 2:1 ratio was for only one month and it was only a total of about 120k more units. Not very much considering they are expected to sale at least 50+mil lifetime and that Xbox sold more software during that same period.


Furthermore ps4 has had some discounts and promotions as well, I guess they are failing too

Y'all need to quit falling for the fanboy flamebate and learn to think about things a little further

Its about being a fanboy...I have box microsoft and sony products...I am also in the field or marketing and when you are losing market share if you dont respond quick revenue is bound to slip off. Developers at this point are also preferring the sony hardware, sales dont lie like I said. The future does not look good compared to the competition at this rate within the first 4 months of release, sales should not begin to slide so much compared to a head to head competitor...You seem like the fan boy here on this argument.

If you are talking about market share and sales then xbox is doing more than fine. In the same month of the 2:1 number your quoting Xbox accounted for 50% of ALL software sales. Not a failure or struggling in any stretch of the imagination. And developers are releasing games on both consoles just as they have always, don't know where you got the idea that they aren't.

And I never called you a fanboy, just said that you are taking fanboy info at face value, without thinking about it yourself. 2:1 means absolutely nothing without context.

This is how nikkas react when a fresh shipment of PS4's come in

Ah, so MS is happy that retailers can't move their product. Got it. Thx for the clarification.

4 million Xbox ones in consumer homes, say the Xbox is selling just fine

No, they aren't.

No, it didn't.

This one is true.

without thinking about it yourself. 2:1 means absolutely nothing without context.

It means you're losing.
