The Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable are selling faster than they are expected to and are on target to meet full-year sales targets even if the current economic crisis hurts holiday demand according to Sony themselves.

Jack Tretton, Chief Executive of Sony Computer Entertainment of America says the console is driven by solid demand by video games, blu-ray players and more.

“We are in good shape for that number worldwide,”

“We are tracking at 100 percent up over last year … about 30 percent ahead of where we should be. So sales could slow down and we will still hit our number.”

Tretton hopes the PS3 can reach a previously announced target of 10 million units by the end of the year, in March 2009.
