Xbox 360 platform holder Microsoft has boldly claimed that its next-gen console outperformed rival PS3 over the Thanksgiving week in North America – but Sony America has fought back, climbing Microsoft’s figures are ‘way off’.
Microsoft says that estimated retail figures suggest that it sold 310,00 units for the week beginning November 18th according to
However, SCEA has subsequently disputed the claims, telling The Seattle Post Intelligencer: "It’s SCEA’s policy not to disclose our unit sales numbers until NPD numbers are officially released which will be December 13th.
