The PlayStation 3 sold 87 million units, compared to the Xbox 360’s 84 million. When speaking about numbers in such a high quantity, 3 million is still a lot, but nothing to boast about being the ‘best console’ when it comes down to it.
We don’t have a fair comparison for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One currently, as Microsoft hasn’t released solid numbers since 2013. As of December 2013, the Xbox One had sold 3 million copies.
