There has been some negative coverage of Sony recently but today Ian Jackson vice president of sales for Sony Computer Entertainment America told CNET that sales went up by 130% for the holiday period.

According to the Eurogamer site Sony are set to release a demo of the highly anticipated Killzone 2 on the Playstation Network in Europe. Sony were unable to confirm the date of the demo but if the demo clears QA quickly it will be out before the retail release.

In the US the situation is different because GameStop have an exclusive deal with Sony to allow access to the demo with pre-orders of Killzone 2. Only when the game has launched will the demo become available to all PSN users in the US. Sounds like us Europeans are getting a better deal for once.
