0 million Xbox 360

After a good year in 2008, the XBox 360 has exceeded sales of the Xbox in November, a milestone was reached for the console to Microsoft: 30 million Xbox 360 were sold worldwide. The sales mix is unique, with a success centered on the West: 17 million units in the U.S., 12 million in Europe and just over one million in Japan.

This success comes online, with 20 million active users of XBox Live, even if Microsoft did not specify what proportion of Gold accounts (and paying for online play). The online service Microsoft has gained popularity with the release of the updated interface in November 2008, with among other a doubling of the number of downloads and 70% of game sales and more.

The year 2009 promises to be as good omens: the Xbox 360 sales increased by 28% vis-à-vis the same period in 2008.
