Do you think it will be implemented into the PS4?

I personally really hope so, the amount of account that people have used and then left accounts to go inactive is crazy, have you tried making a account for one of your friends? Its takes 20 minutes to even get a half decent name ( or a name choosen after your friend has become inpatient of trying), unless you want loads of numbers or extra characters before/after your chosen ID .

So Sony, Let us know...

well the playstation vita has cross game chat so I can't imagine them leaving it out.


Party Chat (essentially cross game chat) is confirmed.

When I was using my PS3, I would only wish about changing my name.

I think only Japanese accounts can change names, so I don't see why everyone else can't too? I for one would pay to change my name just like I do on the Xbox.


Japanese accounts use display names not actual account name changes :p

well..for starters, even though we would probably lose our contacts; i wouldn't mind if Sony reset the names because my favorite ID was taken, even after inputting hyphens & dashes, i cant stand having numbers in it >.<

otherwise , a name change feature would be sweet without having to start over by creating a new account.

Not sure on that one, but if so there really would be no point to it.

I would love the option to pay for a name change!
Although it doesn't really bother me if it doesn't happen. :p

If they do include this option, they will most likely charge as they should charge for it anyway.If they did not charge everyone would change their PSN when ever they feel like it causing a lot of trouble.I believe they will add this in.Probably will be 10$ to change name.

But with 8gb of ram they should have no problem doing it or even letting us use out skype would be cool.
