biz.yahoo.com Microsoft Corp. today announced that Microsoft® Xbox(TM) video game system has surpassed the 1 million mark in shipments, with 1.1 million units ``sold-in' to retailers. These sell-in results build on the spectacular Xbox sell-through rate for the system's first two weeks of launch. At the same time, Xbox games have been selling in record numbers. On average, gamers are purchasing several first- and third-party Xbox games every time they buy an Xbox. The most popular games to date include ``Halo(TM),' ``Project Gotham Racing(TM)' and ``NFL(TM) Fever 2002' from Microsoft, as well as ``Dead or Alive 3(TM)' from Tecmo, Electronic Arts' ``Madden NFL(TM) 2002' and Activision, Inc.'s ``Tony Hawk's Pro Skater(TM) 2x.' Microsoft plans to ship at least 300,000 additional units into North American retailers through the end of year, putting the system on target with Microsoft's goal of delivering 1 million to 1.5 million units for the calendar year. Xbox is the only system being manufactured in close proximity to U.S. retailers, accelerating the manufacturer-to-retailer cycle
