139k PS4 consoles were sold in the UK between 22nd and 28th November, UK shops told MCV (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/over-300-000-consoles-sold-during-black-friday-week-in-the-uk/0159898).
134k Xbox Ones were sold over the same timeframe - a narrow loss for Microsoft's machine.
Altogether, 300k consoles were shifted in total - a figure which leaves around 42k spare for Wii U, handhelds and older consoles.
Black Friday shows no signs of going anywhere - news which may or may not fill you with happiness, depending on how much the whole thing appeals.
More consoles were sold over the Black Friday weekend this year (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-12-02-black-friday-week-sales) than over the same seven days in 2014.
Game sales soared by 60 per cent week on week, while retailers raked in 32 per cent more money.
Buy PlayStation 4 from Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BF6D63Q)

The PlayStation 4 is "THE" console to get behind, just as the PS3 was during the X-Box360/PS3 console war. I have yet to purchase a PS4, as I'm waiting for one game in particular that won't see light of day until at least December 2017.

Amazon are actually selling refurbished PS4 units directly from SONY themselves, at a mere £199.99 which comes with the same warranty as a new one and is technically steal... Well until December 7th anyway.
