Xbox One is expected to outsell PlayStation 4 this holiday season

4.8
Xbox One is expected to outsell PlayStation 4 this holiday season, at least according to UK chain John Lewis’ head tech buyer Jonathan Marsh.

Speaking with Trusted Reviews, Marsh said Xbox One has the edge due to its game line-up and Xbox Live service.

“We are expecting more interest in the Xbox One,” Marsh said. “We are stocking both the PS4 and the Xbox One but if we were to back one, we are thinking that Xbox One will appeal a bit more to our customers in terms of the experience it creates.”

Marsh said he feel the console will appeal more to the chain’s consumer base, and is also basing his opinion on what the firm has “experienced in the past” with Microsoft consoles.

MoneyFlow Yeah, they will out sell by about 5 consoles. New gen consoles are going to blow. Thats my opinion everyone...JUST AN OPINION...


That's not an opinion, that's just your poor observation of misinformed information.

Potion Not really a surprise considering how many people own Xbox 360s compared to PS3


Actually the PS3 outsold the 360, 360 is better imo though


That's how it used to be, as of right now 360 has more sales(FTW!!)


It's funny how you mention that yet Wii still holds over 360 and PS3 in unit numbers sold. That said though, the 360 did outsell the PS3 but barely (less than a mil units).
OT: Kids will ask for the console they couldn't get during November. Parents will acknowledge that and buy the console of choice for their child. Parents will see the xbox as a multi-functioning box with little interest in investigating the uproars of backlash it's received the past half year. Anyone that does a little research will figure to not trust a company that originally promotes an all seeing and scanning camera while partnering with the NSA.


%100 Agree with you :D sfushfiushfiusf
