Well ain't that the chit !!
Information on this would be well taken. Why on earth would they do this , i know sony thinks very highly of themselves, enough to stop people that have bought and paid for the product to be imprisoned and bound by more rules laws regulations , that chances are each one of it's users have committed a full blown felony without even touching the controller, but this is bull puckey.
If the system has some sort of agreement with fate , that you must simply use he console for nothing aside whatever sony deems appropriate for life and it;'s users , it might as well be to destroy any and all public relations.
Screw you sony. Last POS I buy from you.
