Actually, TWRoO, you can't use the European aligned launches to compare X360 to Xbox sales for a good picture.
The Xbox didn't launch during Christmas like the Xbox 360 did. I believe it launched 2-3 months later in the calendar year (March 14th). Because of this, ioi's hardware comparison charts show that the Xbox has a 300k unit lead because that 300k includes a 4 month headstart on the holiday months.
Try the full aligned charts, it clearly shows the X360 with a commanding 11.8m to 9.5m lead, which pits the November 2001 launch of the Xbox versus the November 2005 launch of the Xbox 360.
Of course, part of this lead is due to the fact that the Japanese Xbox launched in Febuary (11th) of 2002, and the AUS/EU launch was, as said, March 14th, therefore the X360 had already launched in it's primary territories by December 11th (last major territory: Japan), giving the Xbox 360 a 2 month advantage in Japan, and a 4 month advantage in Europe in terms of the overall picture. Nevertheless, the numbers are murky using the aligned monthly launches of the EU numbers.
Japan-wise, the Xbox 360 has about 50,000 more units to go before the entire LTD of the Xbox is gone. It already passed algined launch numbers mid-this-year. And the X360 has totally blown past it, so it's been doing well there too.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
