Lulz, FIFA always sells in the 1-2m range FW in the UK. I think the PS4 version can outsell the rest with some luck! PS4>360>X1>PS3 is what I expect in the UK

Yep PS4 version should easily be on top but X1 version will beat 360 (judging by amazon). It'll be interesting to see which console tops the week as XB1 fifa bundle is doing well but it seems PS4 should still win because of the equally priced bundle (which is doing slightly better on amazon) and better momentum anyway

Having said that it seems the 360 version could be close to the X1 version actually

I asked at a local gamestop last night about the destiny release and it seemed that it was about even for xone and ps4 which is more or less what I was expecting especially in my area

[Xevross]

Bump. Perhaps we should track XB1 here instead. The bundles are doing really well in America thanks to the price cut (currently #9 and #12 in the hourly rankings). However outside of US they're doing very little, it seems UK will be as one sided as mainland Europe was last gen while US will be a fight. For now it seems XB1 is going to win the race for November NPD

Hmm we should set up our own tracking service like we talked about.

By comparison, the AC Unity bundle is #271 in UK hourly while COD is #108. Highest XBO is #82 (SO bundle) while PS4 is #15 (fifa and MC bundle which is soaring up the charts) and #47 (standard sku). That fifa minecraft bundle is doing amazingly in the UK. XB1 really isn't doing great unfortunately.

CoD will do better in UK than US.

CoD will do better in UK than US.

Yeah, its doing ok in the 2014 charts while in the US it hasn't even appeared. PS4 will be its top console in the UK and PS4 is going to be a monster this holiday. XB1 will be able to compete a little bit if similar deals to the $50 off are made in the UK as well.

PS4 sales are already rising (as shown by chart track oftware and amazon charts) while XB1 is dong nothing

XB1 is really dominating US amazon. Sony can't get too complacent here, they need to make a counter move. If I was them I'd bring the GTAV, LBP3 and Far Cry 4 bundles to the US and match the X1's $50 price cut for black friday week

[ethomaz]

It was only a week for now because the CoD and AC preorder with price cut... we need to wait the next weeks.

Yeah Sony needs to counter Microsoft. Doesn't even have to be a good counter, but just something to let consumers know their plans. Right now I feel people are waiting on price drop news.

It is fun that after the CoD launch today the PS4 SKU started to go up in Amazon's hourly.
