Last week, I got locked out of my PlayStation web link account for 6 months.
My story begins sometime around the Americanlaunch of the PlayStation 4.
Only, it wouldnt launch.
The glitch notice was that the content wasnt authorized for this machine.
Now it was getting a little disturbing.
I called support, desperate for answers.
Someone would look into the matter and get back to me as soon as possible.
I waited 4 days, unable to access anything.
There was absolutely nothing they could do for me.
My only option was to wait 6 months until the ability to deactivate devices was re-enabled.
The wait period is apparently “to prevent game sharing.”
I get why you have restrictions, Sony.
Three PlayStations authorized on my account, none of which are mine.
Maybe I would stretch to letting families share content, but only under the same IP address.
As an end consumer I should clearly know better.
There would be no sympathy for me.
Now it’s your turn everyone: feel free to say"I told you so - DRM sucks.
“I deserve it.
But you might want to think twice about buying that shiny new Playstation this Christmas.
