first four months of life of its new baby. Beyond regular
sales figures (six million units so far, and nearly 14
million game sales), some of the more interesting
numbers relate to how PlayStation gamers are engaging
with the console's online features. We're told that half
of all PS4 owners have been persuaded to cough up for
a PS Plus subscription, which grants access to online
multiplayer gaming as well as a number of discounted
and free titles. Meanwhile, the 'Share' button on the
DualShock 4 controller has apparently been used 100
million times to share recorded game highlights with
the PS4 community, and 3.6 million gameplay
broadcasts have been streamed over Twitch and
Ustream -- a feature that still hasn't been enabled on the
Xbox One. And who knows? The PS4's Twitch
numbers might have been even higher if people hadn't
gotten themselves banned for playing real-live strip
poker.
