Hopefully this means Sony is making some of their money back finally.

I find it amazing that they could be surprised in this day and age we live in.  If anything, they should have realized that they should have focused more on the PSN service.  While they are doing great for their first attempt at a truly online service, they need to step it up if they are going to surpass the LIVE service.  I am not a MS fan even though I own two LIVE subscriptions for my son and I; however, they do have something good which is one of the MAJOR things about their system which is attracting people to buy it (DESPITE THEIR HUGE FAILURE RATE).  The online component is the key to success.  I admit I wasn't too fond of my PS2 when I had one, but I LUV my PS3 and have never regretted buying one at launch.  Sony, bring the pain to LIVE....step up your online.

@ 2 oh cool you like stargate anyway its good for sony to start making money but there room for improvements in the store

psn id: gingo.... this is great reading for the PSN maybe this will make SCEE  sit up and realise that they could make even more money if they gave us decent updates every week with at least a gd demo and ps1 classic, none of the crap ones we want sum real classics sony like MGS1

makes you wonder why they dont put more decent stuff on there !

thats good news but they need to sort out the european store

This is only the beginning for PSN. I really think Home, and their attribute system will lead them as front runner by the end of 2008.

this is great news for PS users around the world ..... maybe now SONY will step up there efforts of making the PSN better.... just imagine if HOME was release today that will mean 2 million new friends around the world ... can't wait for its release ... if theres 2 million users just imagine how many users there will be when HOME does release ..... amazing !!! keep it up SONY

Ok...Now if you updated the damn thing we might be able to buy even more stuff!

Now, with this news, you'd think they'd throw their EU fanbase a f'n bone with content each week.  I don't live in the EU region but the updates they've been getting each week have been poor (they seem to get more PS1 titles however) compared to what the NA and JP regions get..

Wonderful! So, Mr Reeves, just think how much you could make out of the UK/EU store if you brought us the same stuff as the US store in a timely fashion! :-)

How much of the other 60% are online but have yet to sign up, what are they doing, its free to sign up and play online, and the downloads are cheap.

lol wow they actually thought non of us had internet connections and that we did not know what a download was.

Surely....We rule!!

seriosly,  the eu store coud be SO MUCH BETTER we mostly get some wallpapers and old demos that others have been enyoing for weeks

Ok, now they finally realize the interest we have in the PSN, hopefully they'll put more work into it and revamp the PS store.

Hope this game sells a million in it's first week then those xbots can't say that the game is coming to them.

SCEE has a lot of good news to sare this week! As mentioned many times before by many others: online network offering interest is HUGE, so start planning for it Sony!

BTW: Home somtime before Q3 would be nice!

PSN has lots of opportunity for growth. All they need is to listen to the fans.

hmm so if 2mil is 40% of the european users that makes 5 mil european users total. add other regions and we should be at about 10mil right? or dont all the other regions sell as much as our small european nations ^_^

this is good, PSN rules!!!!!

Keep improving it and the people will come.

i guess thier expectations were pretty low for th euro store
