Sony’s PlayStation 3 turned two yesterday and shortly after, Sony decided to tell the world that the PlayStation Network currently has 14 million registered accounts worldwide. Sony definitely released this to take a little bit of the limelight away from Microsoft, who’re releasing Mii’s with cover flow ‘The New Xbox Experience’ tomorrow. Coincidentaly that too is releasing to 14 million users of Xbox Live. Hit the jump for more.

In a post on the PlayStation Blog Sony released the below statement:

PlayStation Network has truly hit its stride with unique downloadable games and a video delivery service featuring movies, TV shows, and original programming that you can watch in HD with your PS3, or bring with you on your PSP. And with 14 million active accounts and 273 million pieces of content downloaded, we know that you’re thirsting for this digital entertainment.

Personally, I’m not a fan of NXE or hardcore consoles trying to hit the mainstream.

Question: Why does everyone but Sony want to hit the mainstream entirely, rather than keeping a good balance between hardcore and mainstream.

Answer: They can’t!
