360 sales up 43% in UK!

[sully1311]

Week-on-week sales increase as a result of price drop and bank-holiday weekend.

GfK ChartTrack has told MCV that the Xbox 360 saw a week-on-week sales increase of 43 per cent in the UK. The sales boost is thanks to a combination of the £30 price reduction on the Elite and a UK bank holiday weekend.

ChartTrack also added that the UK should not expect a serious and consistent upturn in weekly hardware sales until October.

While the Xbox 360 enjoyed a late summer surge, sales of Sony's PS3 fell 20 per cent ahead of today's launch of the new PS3 Slim - a large sales boost is expected as a result of the launch.
