Shipments of Sony’s PlayStation 3 surpassed Microsoft’s Xbox 360 in February, as videogame console sales rose 19% year-over-year, a market research firm said.

Sony shipped 280,800 PS3s during the month, beating the 254,600 units of Xbox 360 shipped by Microsoft, the NPD Group said Monday. Surpassing both consoles, however, was the Wii. Nintendo shipped 432,000 of the lower-priced consoles favored by casual gamers.

Videogame consoles sold well in general in February, as sales rose to $480 million from $402.3 million a year ago. Even more impressive, however, were videogame sales, which soared 47% to $668.7 million from $453.7 million a year ago.

“With several marquee titles still to come in the front half of the year, the industry is poised to achieve another year of record-breaking sales despite difficult economic conditions,” NPD analyst Anita Frazier, said in an e-mailed statement.

The top selling game of the month was “Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare” on the Xbox 360. Publisher Activision shipped 296,200 units, inching out the No. 2 best seller “Devil May Cry 4,” which is also for the Xbox. Publisher Capcom USA shipped 295,200 units.
