January 12, 2009 - More than two years ago, a little thing known as a PlayStation Network came online. True, it had a rocky start -- an ugly PlayStation Store design, games without voice chat, and so on -- but from that seed, a full-fledged game and video service has grown. Last week at the Consumer Electronics Show, Sony was happy to talk a bit about what has been and will be happening on the network -- the video store is a success and there's an update coming to Life with PlayStation -- but today the company opened the floodgates.

Below is information about PlayStation Home downloads, LittleBigPlanet levels, and more. It's all straight from Sony, and it's all related to you…

That's actually pretty interesting.
BTW, why do people always say 'Not Advertising!' first?
Those words don't make it not advertising.
If it's a site like IGN then we know its not owned and operated by one of your friends, but still.

Even though the PS3 is owning, it probably won't catch up to the 360(I'm a sony fan boy, I'm just stating the facts) unless the 360 stops production.
