Microsoft: Xbox 360 sales higher than the PS3 in Korea

Xbox 360 logo - Image 1What's happening in sunny South Korea's console race? It's looking mighty green, it seems, as Microsoft's Xbox 360 leads the pack. According to an interview in Gstar International Game Expo with Microsoft Korea's marketing coordinator, Dae Hwan Lim, the number of total Xbox 360 units sold in South Korea amounts to about 100,000.

The figure may be low, but Lim added that the Xbox 360 is faring "much, much better" than the PS3. It's quite a feat, considering that over 200 PS3 units were sold in a record time of 3 minutes during its launch in South Korea. Gone stale so soon?

The marketing coordinator explained that the console gaming userbase wasn't established at first, but the boost afforded by PlayStation's warm welcome in Korea made the local gamers aware of the choices available and helped out in increasing the Xbox 360's sales numbers.

Lim wasn't able to provide the exact sales figures, but assured that the Xbox 360's numbers are higher than its competitors.

Hey everybody, please stop flaming. We all know 360 has better games and updates at the moment and the PS3 is a bit behind. We also know that PS3 has some cool stuff coming it's way and better hardware.

Can't we all just get along?

Honestly guys I admit the ps1 and ps2 totally dominated the markets but seriously just let someone else have their day. It's ultra obvious the ps3 is struggling right now due to lack of games, horrible online service, overpriced hardware, small amount of ram and a platform that is difficult to platform. I'm not saying it won't make a comeback but it's obvious the wii and 360 are dominating it so quit trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill.
