The Xbox 360 is continuing to show its steady and impressive sales for the month of November.
Despite the financial crisis, Microsoft was still able to sell 836,000 units for the month, amounting to an 8.6 percent increase from last year’s sales.
What’s pushing the 360 to enjoy brisk sales are its strong marketing and advertising as well as good incentives. For example, the Xbox 360 Arcade comes with a copy of Sega Superstar Tennis, while the Pro and Elite units ship with Kung Fu Panda and Lego Indiana Jones, respectively.
Also a big factor for increased sales is Microsoft’s decision to go below the $200 price barrier. At the rate things are going, the Xbox 360 could gain an insurmountable lead against the Playstation 3.

2Just got myself a PS3 and after playing on LBP and watching my one BR film i’m stumped on what to do with it. I own all the multi platform games on 360 and all my friends are on Live. The only exclusive that interests me is probably Drakes Fortune. And BR films are almost £20 a pop for new titles.
Meanwhile i’ve been using my 360 nonstop on COD5 in both CoOp and online. Nowadays people get the console that their friends have so they can get online.
