saprano1 on 26 June 2008

Sony revealed tons of figures today, including one concerning the PlayStation Network. The company has stated in its corporate strategy meeting that over 9.8 million people have registered accounts on the PSN. In total, 170 million downloads have been accumulated between these users. In related news, it was just last month that Japan celebrated making the one millionth mark.

Other figures from Sony include total sales for current gen platforms. PS3 and PSP had a combined 49 million total sell-in units. The PS3 and PSP have sold 12 million and 37 million, respectively

Microsoft only has just over 10mil XBL accounts that includes gold and silver accounts, and you can have more then one account on that service too. So the PSN is doing great with 9.8mil PSN accounts.
