One of the other things revealed at today's press conference was the number of consoles now connected to PSN.

Sony PlayStation boss announced that, as of the 25th of January, there were over 69 million PlayStation Network accounts across all Sony devices. That number includes devices like net-connected TVs and Blu-Ray players as well as PS3s and PSPs.

From that data Sony also announced that 80 percent of all PS3s are connected to the internet and Psn has seen over 1.4 billion downloads.

Hirai said: "PS3 has won its place as the centre of the living room."
