According to Microsoft, the 360 in it's various shapes and sizes is the first console of this generation to have sold 10 millions in the United States since it's release in 2005.
"This year will be the largest in the history of the video game industry, with Xbox 360 leading the charge in the U.S. and abroad," said Don Mattrick, senior vice president of the Interactive Entertainment Business in the Entertainment and Devices Division at Microsoft. "History has shown us that the first company to reach 10 million in console sales wins the generation battle. We are uniquely positioned to set a new benchmark for the industry."
Billy Pidgeon, research manager at IDC added "Reaching an installed base of 10 million consoles in the U.S. is a significant achievement and an essential milestone on the road to market leadership."
Microsoft also added that the subscriber's amount for Xbox Live has exceeded twelve million users, making it the largest console community to date.
