Also, apart from noting PS3 saw “year-on-year growth in online revenues across the PlayStation Network,” digital numbers were released.
The PS3, according to Sony, outperformed its competition with a 24 percent sales increase.
“The uplift on PS3 sales was no small feat, in fact, our percentage year-on-year unit growth was triple that of our nearest competitor,” said SCE Australia boss Michael Ephraim – PS3′s Australia install base now stands at 1.5 million.
