Some Wonderful Xbox 360 Stats
Xbox 360 Fanboy has stats galore from Microsoft about the success of the Xbox 360. There are a ton of them, but here are my favorites:
- More than 11.6 million Xbox 360 consoles have sold in the 37 countries where it is available.
- NPD data: Since PS3/Wii launched in November, consumers have spent $2.4 billion on Xbox 360 consoles, games and accessories at retail; almost as much as both combined.
- Since November more than 18 million games sold, more than the Wii and PS3 combined, according to NPD.
- 5.9 games sold per Xbox 360 owner.
- Since November, 65 percent of all next-generation third-party console games sold were Xbox 360 games.
- NPD data: Since November, Xbox 360 3rd party titles have cracked the top ten best selling games list 16 times. Over the same period, not a single third party title for the Wii or the PS3 made the top ten overall list.
- To date, Xbox 360 owners have unlocked more than 466 million Achievements. All of those unlocked Achievements have created a total combined Gamerscore of more than 11 billion. Average Gamerscore is just 23.6 for gamers who have unlocked at least one Achievement.
