Xbox 360 was the number one selling console on the planet in 2011
For the first time ever, the Xbox 360 has become the top-selling videogame console in the world for a full year, according to a new report.
After beating out the PS3 and the Wii in holiday sales across the world, Geekwire says the 360 ended up topping the total global sales chart for the full year (2011) for the first time, with 14.9 million sold to PS3’s 14.1 million, according to the report.
So if you were looking for another reason to celebrate this weekend, you can feel even better about your investment now that it's simply the best.

It's such a great system with a very well-rounded utility. Tons of great games, very easy to use for movies and tv shows, sports, and other things like chat. It feels like the system still has room to grow and about the only thing holding it back is size of the DVD discs.
