Kinect Sports passes 3m sales

As well as revealing an eye-watering 60 per cent year-on-year increase in Xbox 360 console sales in the US last month, Microsoft has also announced some high-profile Kinect successes.

Rare’s Kinect Sports has now sold over 3m units with Harmonix’s Dance Central has exceeded 2.5m unit sales.

The platform holder has also announced that the Kinect games portfolio will have tripled by the end of 2011 – this would suggest a total catalogue fog around 75 titles by Christmas.

The last we heard, Kinect itself had passed to 10m sales mark.
