these idiots in the UK are stupid in their evaluation. the ps4 will outsell the xbox one big time. all my friends are getting the ps4, not the big clunky xbox one. the games on the ps4 are quality games from japan.

some nerd at a retail store thinks the xbox will outsell ps4... just because him and his nerd friends are gonna be standing in line 3 days before it launchs, dont mean the whole world is gonna.. I guess he hasnt been keeping up on the net. I wont buy the xbox one, most of my friends have already pre ordered the ps4 and have no plans on buying an xbox one.
and who really cares what the UK thinks anyways

On a related note... Marsh is clueless and doesn't know or understand anything about the videogame world

Interesting you should make these comments because here in the UK it's impossible to order a day one release of Xbox one and difficult to pre order one before Xmas, so someone's buying them. If you don't live here how can you comment on the markets here?

exactly! a dumb store that hasnt done research is buying the xbox one in the UK thinking it'll sell. and u cant preorder it in the UK either. but u can preorder the ps4 in the US. most poeple in the US are preordering the ps4. wat does this tell u? that the ps4 will outsell the xbox one.. its a no brainer. everyone can see this.

You obviously didn't understand. You can't pre-order because they're already sold out. Seeing as John Lewis is one of our better stores and is doing well in these hard times I would think they know what they're talking about, unless you know something about the British markets that the experts don't!
1nsan3 it seems the American government cares what the UK says which is why they didn't start shooting up Syria

ok i know who u are.. u work for that store and trying too hard to ensure ur investment of xbox one sells. obvuiously ur no expert in console sales. nice try troll..
btw, the UK market is small compared to the eurozone, US, china, etc. england is a little, trivial economy that cant defend itself anymore without help from the US.

Back on topic.
It's impossible to pre-order a ps4 as well, at least in america. Some online retailers still have ps4 on pre-order because there is a larger bulk of day one consoles for the ps4. There are also many more pre-order bundles. So of course you'd still be able to get a ps4.
That being said, with more bulk avail means more sales.
