Microsoft, ever happy to point out exactly how much money they're raking in, have just issued a little statement doing just that. According to the press release, this has been a bumper week for the system, raking up AU$5.8 million dollars in sales across systems, games and accessories. This stands as the highest grossing week of console hardware sales in Australia for the Xbox 360 since it launched in March this year. Figures from GfK, supplier of market data for the interactive entertainment sector, show that around $2.6 million worth of Xbox 360 consoles were sold in the week ending 13 December. This figure rises to $5.8 million when you combine sales of games software and accessories across the platform.
