Real-name user ID option to be available through PSN at launch on PS4

4.5
Sony has confirmed that the option to use your your real-name through PSN will be made available at launch for PlayStation 4. Sony announced the ability to use a real-name ID would be available on the console, but until today it was unknown whether it would be made available at launch. Xbox One will allow users to do the same thing, but the option will not be made available at launch.

Of course Sony is pushing this. They to this day (even in the New Age of Next Generation ) do NOT, and will NOT, let u change your PSN Username. Sheesh! Talk about an archaic OS

Thlack Ew, why would you want to do such a thing?


Some people are bound to just prefer using their own name over a Gamer-Tag or online alias. I see no problem with it

Dominating I hate this. I like user names or gamer tags better.


I do too, but I guess they think this will be better.

I guess some people may like the idea. You can't please everyone.

Mobil So it will say your Full Name instead of the Gamertag?


I guess. I'm thinking the way YouTube has channels that can put Google+ names for display names.

I know on the xbox one you can turn the option off, or set privacy settings. The ps4 will likely have similar options.
