Microsoft has noted that the software attach rate for their Xbox 360 console has grown to 8.1 titles.
The software giant also noted that third-party games are generating more revenue for publishers than the Nintendo Wii and the Sony PlayStation 3 combined. In total, for the month, third-party game sales reached $300 million USD on the Xbox 360.
"We've created the optimal line-up of experiences this holiday season for families seeking lasting entertainment value, particularly during rough economic times in the US and abroad," noted Don Mattrick, senior vice president of the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft.
"We have the largest library of games, TV and movie content and the most expansive and rewarding social experiences. We're confident Xbox 360 will continue to drive record sales around the world this holiday and beyond."
Including first-party titles, sales for the month were $408 million USD.
