PS3, PSP reach sales milestones in UK
Sony has announced that that the PS3 and PSP have passed 2 million and 3 million sales, respectively, in the UK. Of course, the recent release of Killzone 2 plays a big part in the achievement, with Sony UK's managing director, Ray Maguire, calling it a showcase of "the power of PlayStation 3." More interesting is Maguire's view of the PS3's future, however, which he believes "suggests more longevity" in the wake of selling units at a comparatively high price.
On the PSP side, Maguire points to renewed interest in the platform, stating that the PSP-2000 helped emphasize the "portability of the device" to consumers. The interest is said to extend to third-party developers, who have "woken up" to a new business model oriented around online content.
