The Inquirer: ''John Lewis has published its top ten list of expected big selling gifts for the coming holiday season, but it does not include the Sony Playstation 4 (PS4) games console.
John Lewis' top ten list does make room for the Microsoft Xbox One games console, but does not list its Japanese rival.''
"The Barcelona-based (Spain) indie games publisher JanduSoft and indie games developer Juan-Mod, are today very glad and proud to announce that their 3D arcade action-platformer "Teared", is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

Probably because they're charging more than the standard price for the PS4
It makes sense for John Lewis to do this. John Lewis has a certain demographic (due to what it sells and how much it sells for). The Xbox One has always been advertised as the living room machine (not necessarily a hardcore/dedicated console. We all know they both do multimedia and hardcore gaming but they are being advertised differently). Compare that with the high price and John Lewis demographic it makes sense to have it high on the list. Also the 360 sold more in the UK.
I don't agree with their reasoning but I can still see it
In other news, Lovable will buy PS4 for Christmas. Yay.
