Charged for a game twice and it still would not start or launch, Sony was good, now a waste of time as Activision is. Sadly we all know after yrs of playing this is true. The compatibility pack is not available anymore so do not waste your time or ask why it is for sell in the store.Maybe Sony should have stuck to cassettes...

Playstation network is hell

Playstation network (PSN) is the single most disgusting thing I've ever seen and use in my entire life. It made me so incredibly frustrated like nothing before. EVERYTHING doesn't work. NOT A SINGLE THING makes sense.
I tried to enter to the Playstation Network on my console. I had my address, my email and my ID. It doesn't work, I have to generate a "device's configuration password". No problem, I follow the link. I must access my account via computer in order to generate this password. Doesn't work. Ok, no problem, I try to recover my account. follow the procedure, they ask me for my date of birth. I insert my date of birth, doesn't work.
Ok, I try to make another account with another email. This email already has an account. WHAT. ok, I manage to access this account, I generate the "device's configuration password", try to access the PSN on my console and... guess what? doesn't work. I can't access PSN of "another user". Ok, I create another user on my console, try to access the PSN again, generate another fu**ing "device's config pass", and... IT DOESN'T WORK, IT JUST ASKS ME AGAIN FOR ANOTHER DAMN DEVICE'S CONFIG PASS.

tldr: PSN doesn't want me to be happy, cannot access it on my console, tried all day, gave up.

I recently found out you don't actually own any one game you have with playstation, at any moment they can take away the game you spent nearly 100 euro for and they will eventually do this to every one of your games.

I did not realise this when I decided I was a "playstation guy" when I was younger. Let's just say I've not a single shred of loyalty to them whatsoever.

And the fact there won't even be an option for physical games anymore is just ridiculous.

They are getting shitter and shitter and I'm not at all sticking with them, I'm going to get a pc for gaming instead,,, goodbye playstation you cheating partner you.

PlayStation is anti-gamer

What PlayStation is doing in trying to erase physical media is anti-people, anti-gamer, and anti-gaming. They are blatantly engaging in evil, dystopian practices in order to make more money, they have no care for their players or for the future of gaming. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Awful service. Never again. Psn support is the worst I ever encountered. Useless bunch

Awful service. Get harassed online from multiple profiles from a hacker. Reported the profiles. In return got my account suspended. Tried contacting Sony support, explained everything and still account left suspended. And they got a cheek to charge you for psn live. Absolute scam. After 15 years of using playstation platforms it is time to bin the console.

Joke of a company

Joke of a company, not only can you not refund a game if you downloaded it and played it for 5mins. You can’t even do it if you haven’t played it, as a matter of fact you can’t do it even if you started downloading but let’s say not finished it. Best thing is, your ps5 default setting is to start downloading a game once bought.

After speaking with support they also sent me a link to leave a review… only though the link does not work

No care for the customer

Since the release of PS5 Sony has just become a joke. First they release the controllers that get stick drift over and over and over again and never fix it.
Then they steal films that customers have paid for and immediately after announce they’re getting rid of physical games. Ontop of this is the continuously disgusting prices on their store and now they think fans are going to accept their blatant attempt at forcing a monopoly on their store which is mostly flooded with ceeepy hentai games
They have gone so far down hill it’s beyond belief

Since PlayStation withdrew hundreds of paid for films and then withdrew physical media - so any games you 'buy' you don't actually own and can't be withdrawn at any time, they've lost my custom. PS5 will, sadly, be my last Sony product.

My grandson had his PlayStation account for a couple of years. On June 1st I purchased the year subscription for PlayStation plus, 13 days later he was banned for arguing with another kid( both 8 years old) and the refuse to refund my money. Such a scam! What happened to freedom of speech and expression. PlayStation sucks would not recommend to anyone!!!
