Sony announced a news not very nice at the beginning of the month for customers in Europe and Australia residents. From a given day the members of these locations registered on PSN, the online gaming network used in the PS3 and PSP, would be unable to access more than two device at a time through your account. That date has arrived: it was on Friday last. And the owners of PS3 and PSPs are not very happy with the new limitations.
After Nov. 18, a PSN account will only be accessed in two different PS3 or 2 PSPs, and PSPGo 1000/2000/3000 models. Sony did not give a specific reason for the change, but the logical deduction is that prevent the sharing of accounts between friends. Since they use only one account on PSN, the game is bought only once and could be played on multiple consoles at once.
Previously only five devices could be activated with a PSN account. The new limit, however, is not applied to games and content purchased from the network before the 18 days only from it. Sony has not said whether it intends to bring this new policy to other regions, but the expectation is that the company also apply this limitation in markets like the U.S. and Japan, and Brazil could be the next one the list.
