The XBOX 360 won out this month (for the first time since 2007, apparently), but on the back of a new hardware launch, even Microsoft must be disappointed with a 2% drop over June.
The PlayStation 3 dropped 30%, pulling in figures of 215k. The system was down 90k units against June, but still managed to stay in touching distance of Nintendo's Wii which is suffering fairly large decline. Nintendo's system managed just 254k for the month of July.
The PSP dropped beneath the 100k threshold, shifting just 84k units for the month of July.
Despite the doom and gloom, it's probably worth remembering that July was a particularly sparse month in terms of software. NCAA Football 11 was the big seller, with the PS3 SKU taking the second spot.
The full figures are after the jump.
