Sin_ModzZz did MS or SONY release their numbers for total consoles sold? because i think its really close.


According to retailers, ps4 is stomping.


Nope, they're within 10k sales of each other, aka, pretty much exactly the same. That number could be swayed within an hour.

They have released and that is false. As the news report said, they are neck and neck with ps4 slightly in the lead.

Cokes The demand is just so high. And that is just off Amazon, not other places.


We all expected demand to be high but this is pretty insane. I was more expecting somewhere around 200 systems per minute
