SCEA sells 1.2 million PS3s during 2007 holiday shopping season
Leo Chan - Monday, January 7th, 2008 | 12:32PM (PT)


PSP manages to top Sony's holiday 2007 console sales, however

Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) announces at this weekend's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that the total North American sales for its lineup of consoles have reached 3.9 million for the period beginning November 23rd (Black Friday) and ending December 31st 2007.  Of these, 1.2 million units were PlayStation 3 consoles.  The PlayStation 2 meanwhile sold a little better at 1.3 million units, while the PlayStation Portable came out on top with sales of 1.4 million.

Microsoft last week made a preemptive strike against its console competitors by boasting global Xbox 360 sales of 7.3 million for 2007, with 4.3 million of that figure being raked in during the final three months of the year.

Well, that announcement from WB is the lesson for all HD-DVD pursuers and fans. Sony might had lost with BETA Tape in the past, but this time Sony and other Blu-ray dedicated companies are winning the so-called HD-War. In the future, Blu-ray will definitely win anyhow!! The bottom line is that customers want more storage (25GB or 50GB)!!! so long HD-DVD!!!

Sony is doing great job but the price tags should be lower particularly in the PAL territories!!!
