Xbox 360 Tops Christmas Sales
The figures are for the US but still
provide an interesting insight into how the year-old, 360 console is holding
its ground against the new Nintendo Wii and 
Sony Playstation 3 consoles. In a
report featured on CNBC, Xbox 360 sales hit 2 million units between the start
of November and Christmas day.
Nintendo’s Wii did amazingly well
though with 1.8 million units sold, considering it didn’t launch until the
latter half of November. Sony managed to ship 750,000 PS3s, a figure that
reflects some of the embarrassing production problems Sony had.
With Sony planning its Spring PS3
assault for the UK and Europe, it will be interesting to see if the Xbox 360 can
continue to spoil the party.
