Sony sells 1.2M PS3s during holiday season

Sony has announced that PlayStation 3 game machine sales totaled 1.2 million in North America during the key holiday season, boosts the strength of the company's Blu-ray video format because the console also works as a Blu-ray player.
Competition is tough among the latest video game machines, pitting Sony against Nintendo's popular Wii and Microsoft Corp.'s XBox 360.
