Microsoft Announces Xbox 360 Has Managed to Outsell Original Xbox

Microsoft has just announced that sales of the Xbox 360 have outpaced total sales of the original Xbox. This announcement comes just two days after the 360’s third birthday on November 22. Happy birthday, you loud awesome beast!

To put things in perspective, the original Xbox’s life cycle was almost four years long. The 360 has outsold it in just three years, and before another lucrative holiday season to boot. Microsoft’s continued success brings a tear to all of our eyes.
