If xbox one beats the ps4 for September, the explosion will be MUCH bigger.
It would be most interesting if they tied lol

Thread should be up at 6:30pm EST. The actual numbers? Those leaks come hours later.

I wonder if Forbes will post a retraction if Pachter ends up being wrong.
Thanks, I thought it was usually about 11pm UK time.
We usually get the order of console sales pretty quick via press release, if not the actual numbers.
If Sony puts out a "__ months at number one" press release it will be over fast.
They'll probably delete the article and say that upon reflection it didn't meet their journalistic standards.

Oh yea, but everyone wants the numbers or a close estimate of them lol. Thats where the gloating comes in from

Don't agree with the abuse Pachter is getting on Twitter, it wouldn't be the first time he has been wrong. I don't get the hysteria at all.
It is a bit early but going by how confident GAF is that he is wrong a little prep work doesn't hurt.
Makes me think that Keighley was simply following this story and is amused by it all and is wondering if Pachter is going to be around regardless of how right or wrong he was.

I thought it was a running joke but seeing people actually use it as a selling point......
Keighley doesn't tease Pachter much but whatever. I'm not exactly invested in this at all. Just think it would be funny. One thing is for sure, I'm expecting a huge number of consoles and games sold.
Well there /is/ better network stability.
Unless for some stupid reason that's not a selling point.
If Sony releases that GTAV PS4 Black/White bundle in the US it will be an intense battle.
Someone should edit that picture with Pachter's face and Xbox beats PlayStation on the paper.
It should be kaz's face to make the reference correct with the headline saying Microsoft beats Sony not Pachter. Again only if pacher is wrong
Why is always the junior that start shit in these threads? Given how long it takes to become accepted in the GAF forums, you'd they would know better after lurking here in the several weeks before their accounts were activated...
Jesus Christ and this thread are a fart in the air compared to what it's coming later today

If the rumor is true, I'm surprised MS hasn't released theirs by now. Surely they already have the information?

If the Xbox one outsold PS4 in September, I will let you all pay me $5.
If the PS4 outsold Xbox one, I will still let you all pay me $5.

I never said that it was a system seller. All I said was that I thought they deserved some more sales because of amount of work they're putting in to improve the consumer experience. This is going to be my last post about this in this thread since it's kind of off topic.
Well done, like really well done.

Yea, especially Larry. He would be like the first one to tweet Xbox1 was the best selling console of September.

YES!
Wow. Ready for the battle now.
Good job.
But, now I want Xbone to outsell PS4 so that we can have Phil holding up this picture.

He could still tweet something like "Xbox One was the best selling current gen Xbox console for September." It's not unheard of

What? Any console sold in America counts towards a sale.

Wouldn't be very becoming of them to shout it out earlier than the usual press releases.

It never ceases to amaze me how we can get in a tizzy about sales. It sure is fun though.

NPD was a much bigger deal years ago when the actual numbers would get posted. But because of GAF's massive influence, NPD and its clients got all butthurt and shut down the fun.
NPD Day on GAF is a shadow of its former self.

How are the boxes stocked though? If right side up then Xbox definitely won. If upside dow, then it indicates ps4 won.
