"Now available in all markets, Xbox(TM) turned in a strong performance for the holiday season, selling more than 8 million units since the product launched on Nov. 15, 2001. In November 2002, Xbox Live launched in North America, and in less than 60 days, more than 250,000 Xbox Live starter kits were sold, exceeding internal expectations. Three of the four best-selling Xbox titles are all Live-enabled, including "MechAssault(TM)" from Microsoft Game Studios, Tom Clancy's "Ghost Recon" from Ubi Soft, and "Unreal Championship" from Infogrames. According to NPD Data, more than 80 percent of customers who purchased the Xbox Live Starter Kit also purchased one or more of these games."
