PS4 outsold Xbox one for more than 25 months in a row, Xbox has 4 months and everyone's saying they're making a comeback xD. PS4 is at 53.6 million units sold, Xbox is at 26 million. PS4 is outselling X1 be more than 2:1

I was going to buy a PS4 pro, on black Friday… No I didn't get on for black Friday, cause they didn't have any in stores… I went to best buy, target, and game stop! I finally go one 2 weeks later, a sony purchase.. I did buy the new Xbox tho, to wait in line for an hour to get in, and another hour to leave the store.. they had 5 hundred Xboxes, and no pros.. what shit is that..

Unless this starts happening to multiple consoles the pictures should be treated with a great deal of skepticism. Also this. Has anyone confirmed what components reside near where it melted?!?

I really don't think over heating from the inside would cause something like that….

Logically the Xbox would have to outsell the ps4 at some point…. Once almost everyone who wants a ps4 has one the sales are gonna start going down. The ps4 has reached record breaking sales… So… Xbox isn't beating the ps4 in sales its just catching up.

The Xbox One outselling the PS4 isn't surprising. Remember when the PS3 Slim launched in 2009? It was the first time that the PS3 was actually beating the 360 in sales. People have had a PS4 for three years. The Xbox One S is out, it's been touted as being 4K-enabled (4K is the new buzz word, y'know), and it's not got three years of games to play. If the Xbox One had started the generation ahead, the PS4 would've eventually gotten to the point where it overtook it.
And yes, 35 degrees celsius is unbelievably cool. My GTX 1080 (overclocked) IDLES at 35 degrees.

You have to have an IQ below 30 to believe that the PS4 Pro in the image actually melted on its own. I have a PS4 Pro and sure it gets pretty hot sometimes but even after fucking 4 hours of gameplay it doesn't fucking start melting.

it does look like someone took a lighter to it

People need to learn about what the fuck Lithium Polymer batteries are. I'm tired of people making jokes about Samsung, I'm tired of news corporations freaking the fuck out because hoverboards are catching on fire. We just need to make Lithium Polymer batteries common knowledge to everyone so we can stop this stupidity when the next piece of shitty hardware catches on fire and gets banned from every airline imaginable.

Yah, a lighter did burn it, there's a fan in the exact burned spot. I had no idea that cooling fans were designed to melt PLASTIC.

The PS4 pro is going to be a fail and if the Project Scorpio only brings more power then is going to fail too, consoles that are only based in power dont sell as well as their competitors they need to have a balance between inovation and enough power to run 3rd party games, look at the fifth generation the N64 and saturn lost against the PS1 when both had more power, Then we have the Sixth generation with the Gamecube and Xbox having more power than the PS2 and still the PS2 broke records in sales. 7th generation the Wii sold more than Xbox 360 and PS3 and both were more way more powerful, and if you look at handhelds is the same Gameboy vs. Sega game gear or DS vs. PSP also 3DS vs. PS VITA. just because a console is more powerful than the other it doesnt mean that is better. a good console needs to have a balance.

LOL perfect game for a good rant F.E.A.R i had to go back to my old console that had the game and i was like thats not F.E.A.R is it and then BAM chick in white robes and the hospital gave it away lol… and honestly i've had my PS4 pro on for a day and a half cause i wanted to push it to its limit without stopping so i gamed on Titanfall 2 Rainbow six siege and Dragon ball Xenoverse 2 during this time it never over heated it was a bit warm but had no melting like this shown in the video so honestly, i am thinking a Dumbass had a candle next to it or a lighter or even a portable blow torch next to it but yea i think these kid wanted people to "not buy" a PS4 Pro just because they're favorite console likely Xbox is losing the gaming race, when we all know "consoles always lose it to PC and thats a fact" but i am a multi platform gamer ranging from hand helds to consoles even PC but i spend most of my time split between PS4 and PC due to the fact that i grew up around both and has games that interest me.
And Rich no you are not the problem that some gamers today are "stupid" just morons that think just because one console looked like ^ the above or something that they didn't like they think that they are informed enough to say that all consoles will burn or melt or over heat or blue light of death etc W/e these people think they are knowledgeable about.
unlike you rich you mention your sources these people do not and we have people so gullable that they falter to that Level of stupidity thus more and more "gamers" are going that path
another prime example we got this console/PC war non sense i think their was a few people that i remember that Rags makes fun of because they talk shit about pc and other things and he states valid points throughout his vids but also nit picks at em which i find funny even i am like him in most cases.
so in hind sight to those of you who are gullabe don't believe what you see on youtube when making purchases unless the back their statements with their own facts and proof of these facts unless your going to people like RTUSA some one like him that states valuble facts and information that is who you should trust and if you feel like you can't trust that person do your research thats why the internet is their and why theirs more than one website and you'll find sources that you want etc to back what you want to play basically take everything you hear/read with a Grain of salt till you fact proof it Via sources. <3
