First off im 16 and 3/4 as my psn says and some of the restriction that cant be taken off that were put on by sony just annoy the **** out of me, such as in home, GTA 4 online and possibly VidZone.

i mean GTA 4 online whats the difference between that and story seriously it's stuff like this that makes me regret putting in my actuall age.

anyone else agree?

i believe they go by 18 as the age of no restriction or was it 21? anyway i think they follow the ESRB in America, so if they have a game that rates 18 over there, then you cant play online if you are under that age i believe. as i assume you had to make a parent account for the one you are using, why not check the sub-account settings? and yeah i disagree why we have to suffer to another countries ratings, i mean im 16 as well, and made an account to only find i couldnt play online its annoying, but i suppose there are 100s of other people in the same boat.

That's why I said I was born in 1990 rather than my real 1992 birth year, I'm 17 so I wouldn't of been able to play GTAIV if I wouldn't of done that, usually when you make online accounts if you're to young it'll restrict you on all the privileges...

Well you might consider yourself to be very mature, but the fact of the matter is that people your age absolutely ruin online gaming for the older crowd. Also, Sony has to keep a family friendly image, if they don't then parents who care about this stuff just won't buy the console. So I'm sorry man, if you can figure out a way to make your account over again I'd just pretend you were 21 or something to be safe...

Disgracing my actual year of birth.... Just kidding, the fact that you chose 1987 to make yourself older makes me feel old :( 22 is the new 30...

Well if you're "16 and 3/4" then it looks like you're going to have to wait 1.25 years, junior.
