PlayStation systems reach 500 million sales, limited PS4 console announced to celebrate
Since the launch of the original PlayStation in 1995, it, and its successors have been popular worldwide. To this day, the PlayStation 2 sold over 155 million units, and has the highest sales number compared to any game console ever. With the PlayStation 4 on track to eclipse the total amount of sales that the PlayStation 3 made through its lifetime, it was hardly a surprise when Sony revealed that over 500 million PlayStation branded systems have been sold. To celebrate this achievement, Sony will be releasing a very limited edition PS4 Pro console. Only 50,000 of these consoles will be created, and they'll be selling for $499.99. The special console comes in a dark blue color, with a translucent see-through casing, a PlayStation Camera, a headset, and a special controller. You can also opt to buy the controller alone for $64.99. Both will go on sale for a short amount of time on August 24th.
