Sony’s PlayStation 4 and Microsoft’s Xbox One were announced a few months apart, but it’s the latter that’s been generating the lion’s share of headlines, although not always for the best of reasons. Even so, pre-orders for both consoles seem to be doing pretty well by all accounts.

For Sony, PS4 pre-orders are going so well that the company has reportedly directed major retailers in the UK to stop accepting them. As The Telegraph reports, the instruction was given in order to avoid stock shortages, particularly in the lead-up to the all-important holiday season, when the two consoles will go head-to-head in the battle for Christmas sales.
