Millions killed...in Xbox One games.


Microsoft has announced that Xbox One has already sold 1 million units around the world.

“We are humbled and grateful for the excitement of Xbox fans around the world,” said Xbox's Yusuf Mehdi. “Seeing thousands of excited fans lined up to get their Xbox One and their love for gaming was truly a special moment for everyone on the Xbox team. We are working hard to create more Xbox One consoles and look forward to fulfilling holiday gift wishes this season.”

These sales exceeded Xbox 360's launch, setting a new record for Microsoft's Xbox branch. Last week, Sony revealed that its PS4 had sold similarly -- 1 million in 24 hours.

In the last 24 hours, players have driven 3.6 million miles in Forza Motorsport 5, killed 60 million zombies in Dead Rising 3, pulled off 7.1 million combos in Killer Instinct, and slaughtered 8.5 million Ryse: Son of Rome enemies.

    You do realize that XB1's sales are worldwide and the PS4's sales are just in the US. They don't even release in Europe until the 29th and not in Japan til February. So no, the XB has not sold anywhere near as well as the PS4.

    LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

    I had to quote for emphasis

    I'm so surprised at Sony, they really turned it up over there, looks like mgmt is doing all of the right things. If worldwide sales are included Sony would prolly do something like 2 million if they had a global release. Don't sleep on Japan....

    And the only reason I'm getting an XB1 is just for Killer Instinct..... I'll be taking yall souls soon thank you very much...

    Lonious I hope you coppin KI as well fam, I know you got game - especially in Tekken, I'm gonna need a punching bag some good competition.

    You're a funny guy, but nah I'm not getting a XB1. I'm not even getting a PS4 for a few months. I probably would cop one if it had a good fighting game, but it doesn't so I'll wait til after I'm finished with Dark Souls 2 and Lords of Shadow 2 on the PS3.

    Worst initial publicity of any Xbox ever and it still became the fastest selling one yet.
