Sony's PlayStation hit a significant milestone yesterday in the UK, celebrating 20 years since the original PS1 released over here. Three generations later it's still going strong with the PS4, its newest console exceeding expectations and becoming the fastest selling PlayStation yet. You can forgive Sony, then, if there are a few hangovers in their offices this morning after any celebrations last night.
