The PS4 outsold the Xbox One in the U.S. in August

Newsbrief: The PlayStation 4 outsold the Xbox One in August in the U.S., according to Sony, making this the eighth month it has done so since the consoles launched late last year. Microsoft said that it sold nearly double the number of Xbox One consoles in August in the U.S. as it did in July, but this wasn't enough to match the success that the PS4 is currently experiencing. While Sony recently said that the PS4 has sold 10 million hardware units worldwide, Microsoft has not lately announced any shipped or sold numbers for its Xbox One console, which is widely perceived as lagging behind the PS4.
