With 53% market share in console sales, more than 50,000 Xboxes in Kiwi homes and the launch of Xbox Live!, Xbox is looking strong this Christmas.

And all of this from a console that was launched only 12 months ago.

"The last three weeks have been amazing," says spokesman Wilf Robinson.

"Three weeks ago we got 51%, last week we achieved 43% and this week we came in at 53%."

Robinson says the results are huge in world terms and demonstrate enthusiasm for the product by New Zealand gamers.

He says Xbox is evolving into a home entertainment hub that enables people to play DVDs, sing karaoke and socialise with people all over the world.

That only came out over there 12 months ago?!?!?!
Well anyways, go XBOX!!!
