NPD: PlayStation 4 the Top-Selling Console Six Months Running

The NPD results for June are in and, to no one's surprise, Sony's current-gen console once again leads the pack on the hardware front. That's right, PlayStation 4 has now been the top-selling console in the U.S. for six straight months.

In fact, PS4 was the leader when it came to overall "next-gen" game sales as well. I guess that's what happens when you've got more units in gamers' homes than the competition.
