Sony has released its Q1 financial report and it shows impressive figures and how the sales of PlayStation topped those of Xbox to the tune of a 3-to-1 ratio, Forbes reported. The tech giant has revealed its net income of $261 million, primarily driven by the Amazing Spider-man game and its console, the PlayStation 4.

Sony sold a total of 3.5 million combined units of the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 consoles, which is 1.1 million more than its 2013 Q1 sales. On the other hand, Microsoft has also revealed that it sold 1.1 million units of the Xbox platform over the same period of time. These figures show that the sales of PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 are outselling their Microsoft counterparts of Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Meanwhile, Sony's other devices also enjoyed a modest increase in sales. Counted separately form the company's main platforms, the PSP, Vita TV and Vita increased to 750,000 units from 600,000 last year.

The tech company has not yet given exact details, especially with regards to the breakdown of PlayStation sales, but estimates suggest that there has been a decrease in PlayStation 3 sales and that the PlayStation 4 has grown to about a 2.4 million increase. Also contributing to the success is the increase in revenue resulting from the PS+ subscriptions with Sony's latest console.

Microsoft's Xbox is still doing well, especially if taken from a historical perspective. While it's too early to make conclusions, the ratio and discrepancy in figures suggest that the PlayStation 4 could be this generation's PlayStation 2 in terms of market dominance during its day.

The upcoming holiday season will be indicative of the current generation consoles' performance as well. Moreover, most of the anticipated titles have been pushed back to a later date in 2015, and games are a huge factor in determining the sale of their respective consoles.
