And it goes right into discussion of the PSN, using world wide figures:
And there are some encouraging signs for SCEE, which Reeves understandably wants to focus on. While PSP and PS2 software sales have fallen (by 15% and 51% respectively), PS3 games sales are up 53% and there's a healthy 1.1m pre-order book for Killzone 2, the first of a new batch of IPs that Sony will be counting on.
Then there's the success of PlayStation Network, which overhauled the massive headstart of Xbox Live to amass 17.5 million users, 55% of all PlayStation owners, increasing revenues by 200% in 2008. When downloadable movies roll out in Pal territories later in the year, Reeves believes the PS3 will fulfil its promise as a lucrative home-entertainment system.
All in relation to SCEE from the previous paragraph.
And Killzone 2 will be big for SCEE, as it is made by an SCEE studio, so SCEE should be raking in a large portion of the revenue (assuming their revenue distribution works that way, I'm not sure exactly how they handle things).
