The brand-new Xbox One celebrated Microsoft’s biggest game console launch ever this week, with one million units sold in less than 24 hours in 13 markets, including the U.S. With a $500 price tag attached to each console, Microsoft likely bagged more than $560 million in retail.

On the other side of the gaming war, Sony has said it sold more than 1 million PlayStation 4s in its first week as it debuted in the U.S.
