Sony PSN Numbers Up

“Hack, what hack?” Seems to be the question on everybody’s lips today as Sony announce that since the beginning of summer, they have seen an extra 3 million users world wide log onto the PlayStation Network service! This staggering number has surely softened the blow for Sony after the PSN was hacked and taken offline for nearly 2 months.

“I’m pleased to tell you that the PSN is more secure and better than ever,” said Howard Stringer, Sony CEO.

“We are aggressively expanding its content. We have more than 3m new customers since the network came back online, and sales are exceeding what we had before the cyberattacks.

“This year, we at Sony have been flooded, we’ve been flattened, we’ve been hacked, we’ve been singed. But the summer of our discontent is behind us. The past is a prologue to future possibility.”

Now that is back to capacity, we hope that the PSN continues to grow strongly and catch up the ground lost to Microsoft Live on Xbox 360.
