The PlayStation 4 has outsold the Xbox One every month this year except for April. That has helped Sony’s hardware build a substantial lead over Microsoft.

You just got owned son

Hahahahahahah Tiger.......................wrong..........................again. Guess you need to update you thread where MS uses the this months win as ammo at E3.

EPIC FAIL.

So uh..........................whats up...................................wheres the "Xbox won May NPD" topic?

The PS4 got outsold last month by Xbone by a measly measly 13/15K, right?

Poor OP

Correct.

@TigerSuperman You gonna do it like last month? Or are you gonna make up an excuse?

To keep things on a level and unbiased heading, if it turns out the PlayStation 4 outsold the Xbox One by a comparable margin would you actually still refer to it as "measly" or would you go full cow?

If it's less I'll eat crow for sure. Always a good sport in NPD events.

Would you admit, after all of our conversations, that the XBone is not making ground on the PS4 even in the US?

Survey says no. But, damn, that one month of riding high was cashed in proper by you Lems. The comeback was so real, what happen?

Please can a mod update the title to indicate Tiger got it wrong?

My prediction is the Sony downward spiral begins in June and perpetuates onward into January.

Well, at least you're sporting about it. Let's have fun with this!

Did TC edit his other thread taking out his prediction that Xbox would win NPD again? And then make this one to bury the other one?

Essentially.

@_Matt_: Oh, you mean this?

I'm sure @TigerSuperman won't mind some crow :)

You mean starting August right? June is a big month for the PS4.

No, June, I'm pretty confident that E3 is going to be huge for Microsoft, especially considering the fact that they have big games coming THIS year.

Batman is not causing my view to waver, it's a multiplat with an extremely limited run of Limited Edition consoles.

Mwahahahahaha Tigersuperman owned again!!!

I thought Xbone was supposed to win May. There's no hope in June with the Batman bundle lol. Nobody wants the XPoSBone you'll just have to get used to that fact as long as the gen continues. You'll occasionally have Xbone surpass PS4 for a few months if there's a big release like Halo or a fire sale but out of that the Xbone stands no chance.

gaf thread is live click this

Notes:

-PS4 was the leader in software sales for the month.

Hardware:

PS4: Best selling console.

Xbox One: Up 81% over May 2014.

is he even going to come back into this thread?

Game announcements =/= hot bundle for a releasing game. And seeing as Batman will release late this month, they may take a good chunk of August.

The big news here is that with 3 days on the market, Splatoon charted at number 5!

If one of the games I heard about isn't multiplat, you are in for a world of hurt.

XB1 139k

Up 81% YOY May 2014 was 77k

It's just a prediction, nothing more, I own all of these systems anyways so I win no matter what happens.

So they almost made double what they had last year.Bravo

Cows, what happened to Bloodborne?

XBO MoM drop was 26%

YoY rise is 81%

Weekly average

April: 187k / 4 weeks = 46,750

May: 139k / 4 weeks = 34,750

@GoldenElementXL: It already sold 1 million+ bro. That's a loooot more than what Splatoon and Bayo 2 together will amass :P

Also, why do you have Naughty Drake as your sig? >.>

@TigerSuperman

Now make sure you tell that to your 48 alternate accounts please.

It's going to be interesting to see what this all pans out to.

damn...minecraft and GTAV beat splatoon.... not the news wiiu fans were hoping for.

i can deal with MKX and witcher outselling it though.

Ha! Wrong again.

That is pretty impressive

Confirmed as having alts, ban.

To be fair it was only out for a few days.

No it's not. We don't know what number 5 is, example MLB charted again. Look at the numbers for last month software wise, this month is slower. How mcuh do you think Minecraft sold?

Why would I use gaf instead of the source they are getting the number from?

I know may is usually a slow month, but I'd imagine a massive release like Witcher 3 (already sold 4 million copies WW) would push HW sales a bit on both sides. Kinda disappointing that they both dropped (I'm assuming the PS4 also dropped versus April, yes).

gaf gets NPDs leaked to them by Cream and Sugar. The info I've posted are from people doing maths with obvious facts. Get a grip.

Wait wait,it was 3 days, new IPS are front laoded, the majority of it's sales for say, the next couple weeks are those 3 days. The charts were having the game fall byt he 3rd day.

This would leave room to wiggle if we don't also add the fact it's on the Wii U.

@nyadc LOL guys nuts.

so you think it will show up in June NPD? the hype is still going pretty decently.
