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.

I used to have my gamertag as my real name, changed it after I got a ton of friend requests on Facebook by people I didn't know. It was a bad idea to say the least, I won't be using this feature.

Scared_of_Water Anyone else think they just said this because Microsoft said it'll be delayed on the xbone. It wouldn't be the first time.


That's exactly what I was thinking. I don't think Sony are being all that professional about the next-gen. Fair enough trying to go one better than Microsoft but there's no need to rub it in their faces.
