It was so funny in Spaz's feed yesterday every sub had this headline and was quoting a vague piece of info. Talk about building the fake news hype train!

So other than being a 'limited' run of 50,000 (blahahahah limited) is it anything else?

Yeah that was a good vid and wrap of what happened.

Spaz thinks Sony have started to show they are heading the M$ way with cross-play. Everyone is on-board with it except Sony and the half baked excuses they use just scream arogantz (some of you will get that

). No doubt M$ will be going all in on the Xbominus16 or whatever the F^&K they call it. Sony needs to pull their shite together!

Sony *do* allow cross-play, they leave it up to the developers to implement.

Rocket League allows PC/PS4/XBOX crossplay all in the same lobby.

If only they did. They claim it's to keep 'kids' safe and they provide the best place to play. Only recently some devs have started talking about how blunt Sony are about it.

Spaz doesn't really care about it but just used it as an example of the way they are acting. Don't try to get a refund from them. BAN HAMMER for having to comply with consumer laws. It looks like they are setting themselves up to fail on the PS5 v Xbone-16. M$ will have some sort of battle-plan ready and Sony need to be more consumer friendly.

Slight correction. Sony only allow crossplay with PC in rocket league (and likely others - +mobile for likes of Fortnite)

They don't do it with any other consoles - even if the devs 'accidentally' enabled it before pulling it again - probs a Sony blast.

But yeah, Sony really need to get off the high horse and let it go.

It's odd that Sony roll out excuses for certain things, but then there are examples that completely go against it. It's clearly just them allowing it (or not) that is holding it back, nothing else. Same goes with K+M support, often they say it cant be done, wont be fair, blah blah.. but then FFXIV can be played completely with Keyboard and Mouse on PS4 (and is fully cross-playable with PC for that matter too).

Spaz believes EPIC threatened to pull Fortnite on PS4. Only a rumour but considering SONY's blunt no only weeks ago it's a bit odd.

A very interesting back flip from Sony thats for sure, if it is because the devs put pressure on then good on em. Whilst I truly, honestly, could not possibly care any less about fortnite, it's a win for gaming as a whole

Why any thought Spaz might not be right?

PSN Name Changes Are Officially Coming

Stolen from Whingepool

6.10 Firmware Testing invites going out. I wonder how many will hold off on name changes following these disclaimers, especially the first point.....a lot I would imagine.

Important Information Before Changing your Online ID:

Not all games and applications for PS4™, PS3™, PS Vita, and other PlayStation® systems support the Online ID change feature. If you change your Online ID:

• You may lose your progress within games, including game saved data, leaderboard data and progress toward trophies.
• Parts of your games and applications might not function properly, both online and offline.

lol they need to fix that before it goes to everyone. Or at least name the games it affects.

Maybe Sony need to ask microsoft how its done. No such issues on Xbox with name changes.

The biggest problem is back in 2006, Sony set up PSN backend to use your actual gamertag as the unique identifier rather than a random string of numbers like Xbox did so when changing your name, games before April 2018 may have issues identifying you.
