Next-generation game consoles already are knocking on our doors, but Sony's Playstation 2 is still selling like hotcakes. The company announced that it has shipped more than 90 million units since it went on sale in March of 2000. Microsoft aims for the top-spot with its upcoming Xbox 360. But kicking Sony from the first rank will be not an easy task, considering sales figures of the Playstation 2 (PS2) released today. According to Sony Computer Entertainment (SCEI), the PS2 passed the 90-million mark on June 2 and is well on its way to surpass the original Playstation, which has sold more than 100 million times to date.
