According to Sony, PlayStation Network downloads are about to smash through the eight million mark. It's also being reported that in North America there almost three million registered PlayStation Network accounts.
Jack Tretton, chief of Sony US, said, "Coming off a great holiday sales season we see strong momentum behind PS3 in 2008, and feel confident about the year ahead... we have Blu-ray emerging as the de facto high def standard, the developer community is hitting their stride, consumers are recognising the tremendous value and innovative services such as PlayStation Home are all in the works, so this is definitely shaping up to be a breakthrough year for us."
Tretton also revealed there have been more than 52 million downloads of stuff from the Store since it began.
