Microsoft has continued its dominance of the console charts by taking the top spot again in July.

In June Microsoft sold over 500,000 units and although they only managed 277,000 in July it was still enough to be the best selling console of the month.

Microsoft’s Aaron Greenberg posted on Twitter;

“#NPD reports despite slowing of market in July, Xbox360 was top selling console with 277K sold and 45% share of current-gen system sales.”
