“Over 1 million PlayStation 4’s were sold in the first 24 hours after the game console went on sale early Friday, Sony said.”

“The game system is Sony’s first in seven years and includes new social features, streaming video apps and a touch pad on the controller.” Sony says it expects to sell 5 million PlayStation 4’s by the end of March and analysts expect demand will outpace the supply through Christmas. Apparently Sony want to resuscitation their consumer electronics department with the help of PS4. However, for Microsoft’s Xbox One, which will go on sale on 22nd November, the current outstanding sales data of Sony is going to be the opening shot for their competition.
