So what could have been a great feature looks like it's just unearthing the worst kind of internet morons. Sony/ Twitch really need to find a way to manage this whole situation a lot better if they don't want a massive consumer backlash from parents.

backlash for what ?

that their parents are to stupid to know what their brats are doing.

Surely you can see how photos like the one I posted would put a lot of parents off buying a PS4. If a mainstream news outlet picked up on it I can see it being a bit of a PR nightmare. You don't want your product associated with paedophiles, fairly or unfairly.

This is why PSN and XBL accounts need to be more strict. Children should not be able to fake an account. A verification system should be in place that makes it so anyone under 18 must be on a sub account that is monitored by parents.

All of the companies have done a great job with parental control, but they have to make sure there are no loop holes that kids can jump though. Sure kids have plenty of ways of getting access to stuff they should not see, but consoles are an easy target for extremist groups and dumb parents that believe their is a problem that is not their own fault.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Their are some crazy gamers on the net

 

Can sony be sued for it? if not then sony should not worry to much but if yes then I think in the future playroom is finished.

It's clear you couldn't care less, which is how your comment should be treated as well.

These kids are playing and that's all they are thinking about it. They're not responsible for others retardedness!



Twitch has been pretty good with banning though. You cant really watch a playroom stream thats non game related for too long before it gets banned. Its kinda funny though. And so far everybody ive seen abusing the game is well aware of what they are doing.

Its weird..twitch has been around for quite a long time...and PC gamers can do MUCH worse things yet they dont. This says quite a lot about the PS4 demographic
