Celebrating the PS3's second birthday, a href="http://ps3.qj.net/tags/sony/880" id="tag"
title="Father of PlayStation"Sony/a caused quite a stir last Tuesday when it announced that the a
href="http://ps3.qj.net/tags/playstation-network/10982" id="tag" title="Sony's live
network"PlayStation Network/a has attained 14 million active users, matching the year-older Xbox
Live's 14 million subscriber base.brbr"Seeing as PlayStation Portable does include PlayStation
Network services (i.e. games store natively on PSP), yes those numbers do include all PlayStation
Network registrations," said a Sony rep. To prevent dupes, Sony does not deem PS3 and PSP accounts
as separate.brbrAs to the exact figure of how many users the've got, Sony refuses to give a
specific number, but instead continued to toot the PSN horn, "We've seen an increase in unique
[PS3] consoles registered for PSN compared to the sell through rate, which means we are seeing more
PlayStation 3 owners who didn't previously register, do so lately, based on the new features we've
added to PSN, such as Video Store and Trophies," the rep said.brbrp style="text-align: center;"a

IDC game industry analyst a href="http://ps3.qj.net/tags/billy-pidgeon/12345" id="tag" title="IDC
analyst"Billy Pidgeon/a concurs, saying that PS3 PSN registrations have increased 160 since January
2008. However, only 50 of PS3s have logged into the PSN, compared to the Xbox 360 having 60 going
live.brbrSince Sony announced selling 17 million PS3s worldwide, Pidgeon estimates that there are
only 8.5 PS3-based PSN users. "Remember, though, they're not claiming that every account is a
connected PS3," he pointed out.brbrhr style="width: 100 ; height: 2px;"brspan style="font-style:
