By Patrick Garratt

In this interview, Microsoft’s John Schappert has claimed that more than 18 million Xbox 360s have now been sold worldwide.

“I think that we’ve sold 18 million, the last time I’ve checked,” he said. “18 million hardware units worldwide.”

In a wide-ranging chat, Schappert also talks about the speed at which Microsoft has reached 10 million Live subs, what he’s going to do about southern Europe (and the fact Xbox 360’s not selling well there) and how much he loves Wii.
