Microsoft said Xbox 360 console sales were up 28 percent year-over-year, and that total retail spend on the platform (hardware, software and accessories) hit $457 million.
It added: "We expect this momentum to continue throughout 2011. In the coming months, Xbox 360 owners can look forward to the arrival of Kinect-enabled Hulu Plus, as well as a diverse catalogue of new games."
