PlayStation Network By The Numbers

Sony don't throw their numbers around as often as the Xbox Live team do, but does that make PlayStation Network numbers any less exciting? Goodness no. So let's proceed.

THC CELL6307d ago

when home comes out there will be 10 mill + users

TheMART6307d ago

Actually there will be 2 mln. users with 5 account each. It is known that everyone makes multiple accounts also on other continents.

mighty_douche6307d ago

Price cut brought you out of your hole huh dude?

HarryEtTubMan6307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

The Mart each person only gets ONE MAIN ACCOUNT. They OBVIOUSLY have common sense considering their a billion dollar corporation and not some jealous NOOB XBOT on a website(that NEVER gets ANYTHING he says right for that matter). THEY DONT COUNT SUB ACCOUNTS that made under your one real account.

yes PSN is a very big network too and worldwide.... very close to Xbox Live... and it will pass it before not too long.... PSN is getting everything XBL has and more. There are at least 7-8.5 million online worldwide now. Get over crazy XBOT. Sony even announced there were 5.5 million accounts on PSN back at least years E3 LMAO. THEY DONT COUNT SUB ACCOUNTS under the one main account lol.

the odd thing you gotta think about though.. is how many of those 2.8 million are actually european people that made US accounts just to download demos earlier. cause i know i have US,UK, and JP accounts so i wont miss out on anything. they should be more specific by giving us the # of individual US consoles that have connected online.

Cwalat6307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

im pretty sure this isn't a number of how many accounts per console is currently online, so its one account per console,
that means currently 2,8 million PS3 are online in US.
thats, like Chris Eden stated, 50% of all american PS3 owners.

ChrisGTR16307d ago (Edited 6307d ago )

LOL i just read it.. this isnt US accounts.. its all accounts world wide.

"Eden said there are currently 2.8 million registered PSN users, and, since Christmas, 100,000 more have joined every week. "

stupid kotaku is changing the original quotes.

cause he also gives a list of the top downloaded things in the UK .
"The list differs slightly for the UK: Tekken 5, Warhawk, Fl0w, Loco Roco, Mortal Kombat 2, Super Rubadub, Calling All Cars, Gripshift, Lemmings, and Super Stardust"

dark loard6307d ago

i think they only go by the main account not the sub accounts

The Wood6307d ago

my US account is a main account. Maybe they do it another way like how some websites would not allow people outside of the US to watch that video the other day even if a proxy was used.

Bazookajoe_836307d ago

That has a psn account and i would believe thats somewhat similar to xbox live..

I hope it's a remake of the 1st game. But it's probably just the PS5 version of Red Dead Redemption 2

OtterX16h ago

I hope a PS5 upgrade launches on the same day as announcement & it costs no more than $10. I already bought the Ultimate Edition once, they got good money from me.

I stopped playing completely 2 years ago until they did 60fps. I really didn't expect it would take this long & I didn't want to start completely over on PC.

dmonee5h ago

My wish is that its optimized for current gen machines, with some sort of story expansion. Undead nightmare 2! My 2nd wish is that it just shadow drops on the day of the announcement!.

Lionsguard5h ago

Give me my RDR2 Undead Nightmare already.

The Evil Within Deserved More: A Great Horror Series Left Behind

The Outerhaven writes: While I hold Bethesda's The Evil Within series as some of the best Survival Horror games available, it's clear that Bethesda has no intention of revisiting the series. While Capcom is still working on its Resident Evil series, I look back at the now-dead survival horror series from Bethesda, wondering why the series was left wide open, and yet still not revisited.

An OK horror series left behind. It had some great ideas, but it never knew how to play to its strengths. Instead, it came out like just another RE4 clone.

I would love for a third entry to come out, but it needs to learn to lean in on the psychological aspect and move away from the generic "pew pew" ideology at the center of the gameplay loop. It doesn't need to abandon it; it just needs to put it into better context, is all.

Also, try a first-person perspective instead. Too many 3rd-person games with nothing to offer but an avatar taking precious screen space. At least make it an actual option and not that janky-ass mess the second game pretended to have.

Venoxn4g1d 15h ago

Love both games, hope that we will get third game

i really didnt like the 2nd game.

first game was fantastic

PS5/Pro/Switch 2 version of RDR2 seems most likely. I’d love a RDR3 but that seems years away

Cacabunga2d ago

Id be happy for just a 60fps patch

OmegaSoldati2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Agreed, but at the same time RD2 came out in 2018. Could it be a remake of Red Dead 1?

Spoiler:

Marston died in the end of Red Dead and Red Dead 2 is set before that. Im curious now. What news could it be?

mkis0071d 17h ago

I'm pretty sure the next game will be another prequel as the story really has no where to go as far as being a western after red dead redemption. The next game will end with the ferry boat incident.

Profchaos2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Their contracts are iron clas if they leak anything legit they are threatened with immense legal action.

My hopes for what this is are minimal its probably a meet and greet with the cast

I dont see why they would be involved in a upgraded version of rdr2 when the dialogue hasn't changed

thorstein1d 23h ago

He seems to have been cleared to do this as he purposely picked up the game, streamed it, and made the announcement.
