PSN is the most succesfully hacked and insecure network to think of. Using PSN equals posting personal data on Twitter.
That´s the problem.

Yeah and with Halo the Masterchief Collection, I was earning Xbox achievements as well as Steam achievements while playing the game here on Steam. I think Sony wants to copy that, honestly it's exciting for me.

Why do people care so much about their data ?

so what will happen to your steam account? that's safe? you'll still be able to play GOT even PSN account got hacked or not?

Funny to think people want to play Ubisoft games after their last screw ups, not just taking away your games for not using your Ubisoft account but they won't even allow achievements on Steam.

EA had their screw ups too by messing up achievements for games after they changed their awful launcher, but i'm already sick of making these many accounts to play games when they're not needed at all for the user, they all just want a piece of us along with the money.

[Bucherebis]

It's pretty clear by now that they want to create another garbage launcher for their games on PC. The psn requirement on all their new titles is just proof of this.

They'll pull a Rockstar very soon.

Why do people care so much about their data ?

We both know the answer.
I give a sh** about my data or what anyone is doing with it. Because nothing serious will gonna happen and I have nothing to hide, so nothing to worry. So if anyone have a problem with his data.... you know why. They are downloading cracked sofrware, uploading illegal stuff... of course they are afraid and worried what's gonna happen with their data. They know that their entire activity and download/upload traffic is stored on their computer.

I hope they all will end up in jail, while I drink my root beer with a smile. :)

You can't be serious with this question...

Hm... I wonder what could happen if someone has access to your personal information like... I don't know... credit card number?

Joke's on them. I don't have a credit card, I have a debit card. And I carry so little money on that card that it'd probably cost em more to get my card deets than they'd get back from my card.

In some countries Sony also asks for face biometrics,ID and phone number.

Does the playstation players recquired a steam account linked to their console to be able to play any games ?
