Sales of Sony's PlayStation 3 (PS3) console in the US rose by 21% in June, analyst figures show, but the machine still trails the Wii and Xbox 360.
Tracking firm NPD Group reported that 98,500 PS3s were sold, compared to 198,400 Xbox 360s (up 28%) and 381,800 Wiis (up 13%).
Sony said that the $100 (£50) price cut to the 60GB PS3 led to a 135% sales rise over the last two weeks.
Independent figures for sales of the cheaper PS3 are not yet available.
"This jump in sales bodes very well for us heading into the fall as we launch an impressive arsenal of hardware and software," Jack Tretton, head of Sony Computer Entertainment America, said in a statement. Possibly goes to show them that from the start their pricing was simply far too high. They wont learn though, when the stock of 60GB hardware is sold, the 80GB version will replace it without the $100 discount - dependent upon how long it takes to sell the 60GB stock fo course.
