According to this MCV piece, the first six months of 2008 have been the biggest ever. The news comes from Chart-Track, so that means no figures, unfortunately.
“In terms of overall software, including non-games, this is by far the biggest first half of the year ever,” said Chart-Track director Dorian Bloch.
There’s no other info through the link, as Chart-Track doesn’t allow anyone to publish actual numbers. Sorry about that.

Makes sense. We’ve had some significant releases in the last six months… games that might normally end up being released towards the latter half of the year.

I get the idea that this Christmas is going to be absolutely massive. I’m buying the kids a Wii in August. Just to be safe. Actually, I might buy four or five. >-)
