For reference: I don't own any other console other than Sony branded ones, and I recently bought a PS Vita. I had a PSP that I broke and threw in the trash. I bought another one that put me at the 2 portable console limit to share my games. Now, when I try to download stuff for my vita, it tells me to deactivate one of the other PSP. Wait. Before you judge me, I know that I can deactivate all of my PS consoles to give access to my PS Vita, but I ask you. Why limit Skype, Youtube, and other applications that are not games to only two portable handheld consoles. Isn't The Vita a different generation than the PSP? Should it count as a different device that gets two shares by itself? This is the things that slightly tick me off about Sony. It's their very closed minded way of thinking (trying to protect themselves) that they actually hamper on the experience of some of the people who buy their stuff. |
Honestly, I do understand your frustration, de-activating systems just to add new ones is frustrating. But look at it objectively. Allowing account sharing between 2 consoles is still 1 more than either of the competition allows. And when the limit was 5 (which is used to be), it was mayhem with 5 people just pooling their resources into one account and sharing the game between them. The system in place now may be annoying compared to what it used to be, but it's still objectively fairer than anything else and it makes a lot more sense.
