Xbox 360 nearing two million sold in UK
UK sales monitor Chart-Track says that by next week the Xbox 360, is likely to have sold two million units in the UK since launching in December of 2005. GI.biz reports the recent price drop boosted sales for the console, with Chart-Track noting another boost over the Easter weekend. This was followed by a drop with the launch of the PS3's Gran Turismo 5: Prologue bundle.
According to Dorian Bloch, director of Chart-Track, Sony still has a way to go before overtaking Microsoft's console in the UK. Now, before the fanboys panic and call Panoramix for some potion, the PS3 hit the million unit sold mark this February (despite its high cost) after being available for a little under a year -- it took 60 weeks for the Xbox 360 to hit the same milestone.
