Xbox 360 to surpass original Xbox in units sold

Following October's sales boost, Xbox 360 is now poised to do in three years what its predecessor, Xbox, failed to do in its four short years in production. "By the end of this month, we expect our global installed base to reach 25 million units, surpassing that of the first Xbox," declared Microsoft Entertainment & Devices Division CFO Mindy Mount at yesterday's BMO Capital Market conference in New York. Mount was confident that this milestone was "only the start," though, since historically, more than 75 percent of a console's total sales come after its price has dropped to $199 or below.

anyways congratz to the 360...

Dude, I'm posting here, just for your "achievement unlocked" picture. Damn funny!

Hmm... still thinking lifetime sales will be less than 35M....

Why the hell would the first Xbox and the 360 fight? lol @ pic :D

funny photo.

The 360 beat the Xbox to achieve 25,000,000 sales.

They could make a pic where two friends compete for victory, not a fight brween the dark side and the good side (was it even called light side in SW? I don't remember)...

This one is more fitting for a Sony vs MS fight...

No, this is about the father fighting the son. The son is about to surpass the father.

Edit: Oooops... did I just spoil Star Wars for you? n_n

One year less while being profitable and very desirable. You've come a long way MS. Well done.
