Sadly both are undertracked
PS4 is kicking butt and PS4 should sell 50 to 60+ million more than XBox One this generation. XBox One has to settle for a long distant second place and hold off the Wii U.
I hope X1 can catch up with the Gap.
Then maybe surpass it for a while.
Historically consoles tend to snowball, because of the crowd effects, where friends try to get the same console their friends have, so there is very little chance the gap will shrink unless sony screws up very bad.
