Return of the king.
Sweeeet gif. Glad to see PS4 is doing well so far.
Return of the king.
I must have missed something obvious.
I know this is wrong and I shouldn't really quote it but ******** at them moment "State" 7.4 million units sold with 127 thousand across the world for this month.
So if 127000 is the standard for 1 year 127*12 = 15.24 million*2 = 30.48 if it keeps up this standard which is very unlikely adding in the rest of this year
= 10.16 million so 47 million at the end of 2016 if the sales trends continue which is rather unlikely. Phones are needed, Computers are, etc.
So you can guess where this so called site gets is source from www.********.com which is stated is unreliable and complete bullshit it has to sell 127 thousand every month for an add-on for the TV which is completely unnecessary.
Think he is referring to the messiah Phil Spencer. Which is pretty funny, he should be on the Xbox One chalkboard.

51M is a tall order. I think the brightest projection for LTD by end of this year is 15M. They'd need to increase the average sale rate since launch to hit 51M by end of 2016.
Not saying it won't happen, but never forget:
Nice, excellent quality gif.Return of the king.

Predictions at the start of a generation generally end up inaccurate. The PS4 is off to a brilliant start, but this industry has proven more than once to be unpredictable.
Aren't U.S. sales rather close for PS4/Xbone currently? The major gap in sales is attributed to all the other countries. If Xbone is keeping pace in the U.S. with a price and power disadvantage, then I guess the logic is that with price parity, brand preference will help Xbone surpass PS4.I really don't understand why they predict xb1 to take over in the us once kinect is unbundled, they seemingly don't expect ps4 sales to slow at all judging by the 51 million, they also expect the kinect to be unbundled in 2015 and looking at current sales the gap between ps4 and xb1 will surely be wider by then if kinect stays bundled, which would give us a 2015 situation of ps4 and xb1 price parity but xb1 would be less powerful and have a smaller install base meaning people moving to next gen would likely have more friends on ps4 than xb1.
Some of their predictions kind of go against each other.

So what you saying is, they need to repeat what they did with PS2, even though right now PS4 is selling faster?

It's pretty well understood that value in the form of bundled content is not as effective as a lower total price. I don't think it's clear how the market will react when/if Xbone reaches price parity with PS4 or even undercuts it. At least in the U.S.. PlayStation has the obviously stronger brand WW.I think ps4 is leading about 3 mil to 2.5m or something, but the xb1 has just had a strong period with titanfall and price drops, sales will drop as April to September seem to be stronger sony months so it's expected the gap will widen. The xb1 was only $50 more than ps4 during march but had kinect and titanfall included at that price in most stores. I think 50$ for kinect and titanfall is a pretty good value proposition.

I can't underestimate consumer ignorance/apathy, and I can see people who just prefer those listed games over what Playstation has not being performance conscious enough to care that it's the notably weaker system, or possibly even blowing off the value of Plus over Gold.
Still, it's why I can't imagine the XB1 actually overtaking the PS4. PS3 became much more aggressive and actually price matched well enough as I recall, yet it still lagged outside of a GTAV bundle. Everything you said give the PS4 the edge when you figure ignorant consumers are likely roughly half and half at best, and I do believe once momentum gets going the leading console can keep the lead by inertia alone. Sony has to REALLY screw up (or Microsoft pulling off something unbelievable) to change things now, just removing Kinect and going for price parity shouldn't lead to the XB1 getting ahead, and like said I'd find it kind of irritating if that's all it took, not system selling exclusives or anything.
