"Following this new information, it would seem that XBox has established itself as number 2 in the Console Wars although the leader, PS2, continues to maintain a very large lead. Sony's console has an estimated U.S. installed base of 17.7 million units.
Since the launch of Xbox in 2001, Microsoft has sold over 9.4 million Xbox consoles worldwide, and by the end of the next fiscal year, Microsoft expects to have sold 14.5 to 16.0 million consoles. In addition, Xbox Live continued to gain momentum with over 500,000 subscribers worldwide participating in more than 1 million game sessions every week. There will be over 400 Xbox titles available for the 2003 holiday season, and there are several highly anticipated games coming out this fiscal year, including Halo 2 and the sequel to the successful Project Gotham Racing expected this fall." |
