DerNebel said: What??? I thought the number was around 40mil or something. You're telling me that only about 3.5 times as many people have Gold overall than have PS Plus on PS4? |
The 48 mill number includes both the Gold and the free Silver accounts. 17 mill paying Gold users are quite a lot and I don't think there are as many paying PS+ users. It may reach that over the next few years though as many PS3 owners are paying for PS+ along with over half of PS4 owners (probably close to 3/4 now after Destiny launch and free Driveclub around the corner).
By October 30 2013 there were:
110 mill PlayStation Network accounts
65 mill Steam accounts
48 mill Xbox Live accounts
Edit: This one says 150 mill PSN accounts..
