Microsoft is having a great time rolling around on top of its piles and piles of money after announcing surprisingly successful Black Friday sales performances. The 360 outsold the PlayStation 3 at a 3-to-1 ratio and increased its overall sales 25% over last year's numbers. Also the 360 maintains the highest "game attach rate" of any console at 8:1, meaning each system gets an average of 8 games purchased for it. Best-selling titles included
Gears of War 2,
Fable II and
Lips.
“We entered into the Black Friday sales period with cautious optimism, knowing that dollar for dollar, Xbox 360 offers more social entertainment value than any other console on the market,” said Don Mattrick, senior vice president of the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft. “Record Black Friday sales in the U.S., coupled with our existing global install base of 25 million and an online community of more than 14 million Xbox LIVE members, have laid the groundwork for continued global sales momentum in 2009.”
