Who said it mattered? Is it odd to be intrigued about sales figures?

I thought the One outselling the 360 in pre-orders would be a good thing

Trying to explain the differences in both consoles to a buddy of mine that doesn't know much about the tech side and just likes to play madden and call of duty casually.

Would it be fair to say Xbox One is more geared towards the online multiplayer experience and non gaming entertainment, while the PS4 is geared towards the more hardcore gamer?

This is true but they kind of fall in a different category, IMO Competitive gamers and hardcore gamers are two completely different things

So anyone know how many 360s people had preordered before its release?


360 sold 350k in its first week globally. NA made up the vast majority of those numbers (and Japan the rest). 360 had a staggered launch for EU (where it did 230k FW a few weeks later).

Again, when and where did I say or even insinuate that tONE outselling the 360 was a bad thing?

Do you read every post in such negative connotation?

Oh, and I just added Ryse to my preorder.

Still wish one of Titanfall/Halo/Destiny were a launch title, but what can you do.

Just using my context clues, most people don't say they are "worried" in a positive way

But I see you edited your post, makes more sense now

I don't think that is accurate at all. That is what Sony wants you to think.

are you now making things up? I never stated I was worried about XBone sales. I stated "who said I was worried" after you asked why I was worrying about it. Only edited to make it more clear as you don't seem to comprehend my posts and/or assume I'm a PS4FanBoi.

With Microsoft saying tOne had outsold any other XB console, it got me worried

This was the theme for the last part of last gen.

Although I don't think they are there yet, they are trying to break that mold.

Xbox One is trying to break that mold? I think there is a larger market for casual online gamers than there is for hardcore gamers. The only downfall to that is most casual gamers got to their hardcore gamer friends for advice on which console is better.

Trying to break the mold of entertainment as the only focus. They are clearly trying to do that with the announcement of some exclusive games.

Or based on bad MS PR.

I just watched the newest battle video for RYSE.

My body is ready. This game is amazing.

Are we planning on setting up a thread (or including it in this one) with a list of peoples gammer tags? I usually just fly solo when I play Halo and COD but I'll be getting BF4 and then Halo, Titanfall, Desitny when they release and would like to start running with a solid crew who play with at least some teamwork.


I'll be getting all of those games and would be down to form a posse. I'm sure the thread will come. Won't do me much good now because I don't have a 360.

Anyone ever attend a midnight release at Best Buy? I have my X1 and BF4 preordered over there, and just got an email saying they will be having a midnight release.

Is it worth going to? Do they give out prizes or anything like GameStop?
