I'm not sure what's more ridiculous, Flynn's "I can't sell my PS4 above cost" and Baghdad Bob style anecdotes, or Neo's "Sony is restricting supply because they want to wait until the hardware turns them a profit".
RIP Mario, you didn't deserve to get outsold by Knack.

So in a month Xbox is going to close a 150k to 250k sales lead due to PS4 supply issues? Okay.
I'm not discounting the role of supply shortages, but that doesn't sound very likely.

well the issue is both systems sold out so it's good news for gamers MS Sony did not beat each other here. both sold all their stock and both may have sold even more if they had more stock. this whole one has to beat the other is dumb debate BS.
The good thing is now you got enough next-gen consoles out there to make next-gen games successful. This whole who sold more won't mean s*** till we get to a point where anyone can pick up a One and PS4 without an issue then you can talk about numbers. Till then both systems will just sell out their number so it means nothing just means whoever makes more will sell more.
Xbox One only won Black Friday sales because it was the only console that wasn't sold out at launch.
HA I was going to make that joke.
According to cvg Sony shifted 250 000 Ps4 in 48 hrs in uk. Xbox One sold 150 000 in 48 hrs the week prior. MS have obviously shifted a lot more units in that week so there will be less than a hundred thousand difference.
It's also worth noting that there are many people who have preoredered both consoles that still have yet to be offered one because of lack of stock. My sisterspreoredered an X1 from Game for my nephew and they have told her not to expect one before Christmas.
I wish we had a member working for Sony posting here. That way Flynn would have someone he can argue the whole "The company I work for is so much better than yours" BS back and forth with.
Boy that would be entertaining. Like watching Ronald McDonald fighting the Burger King guy everyday.

I was thinking that whole him working for MS was proven to be BS? I mean damn when the f*** does he work he posts on here 24/7.
Why the hell would someone pretend to work for Microsoft? You guys and your conspiracy theories mate.... does it matter? f*** sakes.
Point being is who gives a s*** mate? It doesnt stop my world from turning one way or the other. Im in control of that. My job is to make sure that I'm not a fraud which I'm not worried about one bit.
Regardless if Flynn works for Microsoft or not tis not a big deal... In other news....
Currently waiting for NPD numbers to see how well both consoles have done thusfar.
1 mil in NA only > 1 mil in NA + 10 other countries. If PS4 sold 1 mil in NA at launch, Xbox likely sold ~500k in NA, 150k in UK, and the rest spread across the other launch countries.
PS4 NA + 20 countries will dwarf 1 mil in global sales. Most metrics indicate 2:1 interest in PS4 and the sales numbers reflect that.

It's possible, assuming Sony is either stockpiling for future launches or spread thin across more countries. I still think globally they have more supply and demand, but it's hard to tell until a couple months from now or more official figures.
nobody is saying that they care or that they give a sh*t.
It would simply be "ENTERTAINING" with a soda and a pop corn bag on the side.
The x360 has very consistently sold a million plus consoles on black Friday every black Friday for the past 8 years. The PS4 won't ever close their now million console gap in north america. It is lost to you
Who gives a s***?
You do because you constantly ask that question. People who truly don't "give a sh*t" wouldn't waste their time asking such a pointless question over and over.
