Having seemingly spent his lunch break on the happy juice, Microsoft’s product director Aaron Greenberg has taken time out to praise Sony for its impressive performance in the March US video games market.

NPD numbers showed that throughout the period more PS3 software was sold than that of any other console. The hardware itself also, for the first time, claimed four entries in the US monthly Top Ten chart.

As well as this, PS3’s 314k unit sales represented its eighth straight month of year-on-year sales gains.

Speaking of the NPD’s on Twitter, Greenberg stated:

“Another strong month, solid number two on hardware sales and growing again year-on-year. Kudos to [SCEA’s senior director of corporate communications] Patrick Seybold for some strong software sales.”

This positive news makes for a nice change in the ongoing console wars. Props to you Aaron Greenberg.

+1 Aaron Greenberg

I'm sure he'll open his mouth before the end of the week to make up for this common sense statement lol, makes a nice change.

You just forgot to mention the Wii Greeny, apart of that, 5 stars.

He's probably saying this with a smug smile on his face because Square-Enix's new western announcement is a FF7 Remake exclusive to the Xbox 360 or FFVXIII multiplatform lol.

Or a Xbox 360 slim announcement incoming.

Nah I doubt any of the above. Props to him.

It's not like he hates the PS3. I think he said before that he has one.

lol I wonder what he will say to April NPD if thing's keep on as they are. But just for saying something nice +1 for you Greenburg

WHAT....THE...?!

I never thought I would hear something positive from Aaron Greenberg about the PS3.

I can scratch that from my list of things I REALY want to see.

That picture always gives me "Hello My Future Girlfriend" vibes.
