Microsoft have told industry side MCV that the Xbox 360 has now topped its predecessor’s installed base around the globe.
VP of interactive entertainment business for EMEA Chris Lewis told MCV:
“We’ve already surpassed the installed base of the original Xbox – which is a really significant milestone. We’ve been blown away by the appetite of people to consumer digital entertainment experiences." he also added “We’re at a price point that is uniquely placed – not least of which because we’re in somewhat of a challenging economic time. Ever since we dropped the price seven weeks ago, we’ve outstripped PS3 on a weekly run rate in all the territories we care about in EMEA – specifically the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Russia.”
