daRealRush This is expected, the Xbox One is faster, and better than the 360, so why wouldn't it be selling better than the Xbox 360?


Well i would think that the main reason is that gaming is much more popular than it was back when the 360 was released. There are also many more potential consumers out there to purchase the product


yes i just wish the pc community was bigger than it is.

I like Xbox One the best. Xbox 360 used to be the most popular until the XB1 was released.

Dorkus Well the xbox one is newer and a ton of people already have the xbox 360 so it would be obvious that the one should be getting more sales.


Exactly what I was thinking lol. At first I thought the article was comparing at launches, but this just makes sense logically haha
