LOL @ Microsoft

Having given out an announcement that their Xbox 360 console has sold 19 million units worldwide, Microsoft went on to claim that this was "more than any other current generation console." GameDaily, gawd bless 'em, contacted Microsoft to remind them that the Wii has currently sold 25 million units worldwide, much more than the 19 million Xbox 360s sold. Microsoft responded with this: "Good point, and we apologize for any confusion. Xbox 360 has the largest global install base of any current gen, high definition gaming console" (emphasis added).

I had to laugh when I first read this. The Wii is very much the bitch of the console wars at the moment. Microsoft might have well have said any of the following:

• "… and your point is…"
• "*laughs* yeah, they have haven't they?!"
• "That very well may be the case, but at least people are still playing their Xbox 360s after three weeks."
• "yeah, but … shut up! *hangs up*"
• "we apologize for any confusion. Xbox 360 has the largest global install base of any gaming console that doesn't have a stupid name."
• "we apologize for any confusion. Xbox 360 has the largest global install base of any current gen, high definition gaming console that has more than three games worth buying (thereby pwning the PS3 even more so)."
• "Tits or GTFO."
• "Better them than fucking Sony."
• "You can't play GTA IV on a Wii thereby rendering it irrelevant."
• "… ya mom."

If you have any more, please, leave a comment.
