In other news, the grass is green, the sky is blue, and EA sucks for Battlefront II.

I have failed you. I can only give you one thumb up. I'm sorry. You deserve so much more.

EA sucks for much more than that, but that's besides the point. You sir, win the internet.

Cool, would be cool to have a close race between the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, still a bit too early to say anything though. Hope the numbers continue

Ok, and those numbers are?...

If it was double or triple, I would think they would say so. Makes me think that "much bigger" means 125,000 to 150,000 units sold in NA.

But that would be revealing numbers which is what we all would like to know.

Well why give out UK and JPN numbers and not NA? Just makes it look like they did horrible in NA, which is where they should have been the strongest. Sure, saying over double or triple UK sales would give you a better idea, but would that be worse than people assuming you didn't, at the very least, double UK sales? If this is the case by chance, XB shouldn't have used numbers at all.

Even if so, which is likely even, it would hardly be something to brag about after 1.5 years of hype.

Still no numbers :-(. PR works best with numbers, Microsoft. It creates nice big titles you know.

Don't think anybody expected something different. I can easily see 300k-400k in US.

Xbox 360 also beat Wii in the US. It's their bread and butter territory.
