Xbox 360 once again tops the charts in July

4.7
Its hard to believe there was a time when Microsoft was seen as a failing upstart in the game console arena, and a few years ago, when the Wii was dominant, it was even harder to believe Microsoft would the best selling console for 14 out of the last 15 months.

The latest NPD figures for console sales in the US however goes to underline just how dominant Microsoft has become in that gaming arena, with the company having 40% of the market for the last 6 months, hitting 43% in August 2011, selling 308 thousand consoles.

The Playstation 3 only sold 218 thousand, despite a $50 price cut, and even the Nintendo 3DS, despite its own massive price cut, at 235 thousand failed to outsell the Microsoft console.

Oasis "..Near exclusive CoD:MW3..."

I'm not sure how the game became an exclusive..I'm pretty sure all platforms will have it.


CoD games generally have better support on 360,more effort put into 360 versions,along with early DLC.

That's why it was said.
