It's Ps4 Vs Xbox One time again and Sony is still the king as the Playstation 4 is the best-selling next-gen console worldwide this 2014! Beating the sales of the Xbox One, 2-to-1!

It was reported last month that the PS4 sold 4.3 million consoles as the New Year began compared to the 3 million of Xbox One and now it looks like the gap has widened.

The new January 2014 data from the NPD Group has revealed that the PlayStation 4 is still the top selling console of the first quarter of 2014 and it has outsold the Xbox One 2-to-1 in America.

Aside from PS4 outselling Xbox one 2-to-1 in the United States, the PS4 is also the top selling console in Australia overtaking the PS3 last January 2014.

In a recent post by the official Playstation blog, Sony Computer Entertainment America Marketing Vice President John Koller revealed the PS4 outselling the Xbox One.

"The response has been fantastic. In the US, PS4 was #1 in sales for next-gen consoles in January, nearly doubling the nearest next-gen competitor. And PS4 remains the cumulative leader here based on today's report from the NPD Group."

John Koller even emphasized that in the US, Sony has sold all the PS4's they have in stock.

"Since we launched on November 15th, we've sold every PS4 available in the US. It's clear that PS4 is seeing strong appeal all over the world, and we'll continue doing our best to provide additional inventory in all of the 53 countries where PS4 is available. We've got supply refreshing throughout the channel regularly, so I encourage everyone to check in with their local retailers regularly."

The official Facebook page even posted a status saying thanks to the PS4 fans for making the best-selling next-gen console worldwide

Aside from sales, the PS4 vs Xbox One debate when it comes to game performance is still a Sony win as multiplatform games such as "Tomb Raider" definitive edition, Battlefield 4 and Assassins Creed IV play much better, getting consistent 60 fps on the PS4 vs Xbox One and they have better graphics on the PS4 as well playing at much higher resolutions.

"It's clear gamers are choosing PlayStation as the best place to play, with PS4 software sales ranking No. 1 in January, highlighted by strong sales of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, which sold twice as many units on PS4 than any other platform," Sony spokesperson Guy Longworth said.

It has also been reported that the PS4 is the better media player vs the Xbox One.
