Facebook/twitter like PSN

PlayStation 4 is going to give you a option in PSN to use your real name instead of a screen name. Which I think most of you wouldn't do. However you can still use your screenname as your name. I think they did this because xbox's friend's app does not let you use your real name, however I am pretty sure they will update it too. Since Sony and Xbox consoles are basically want to offer the same things.

Earlier this year at the PlayStation 4's coming out eventMark Cerny, the system's lead architect, announced that gamers would be able to use real names on PlayStation Network. Today, Sony re-confirmed that news to Kotaku, stating that it will be available as an option at launch, although gamers can still opt to elect an alias. The move clearly highlights a different, more social direction for PSN, which up until now has just been a digital storefront. Apart from live video streaming capabilities, we don't have many more details about Sony's planned evolution for PSN, but we do know that,unlike Microsoft and its Xbox One, gamers won't have to wait to unmask themselves online. For its part, Microsoft does intend to let gamers use real names within itsFriends app

The UI looks like something that should be on the weather channel.

Using your real name online? Nope nope nope. Not touching that with a 10 feet pole if they make it mandatory in the future (which would not surprise me at all). Really sick and tired of all this "let's use our real names online!" bullshit that has gain popularity ever since Facebook became popular. Google is doing it as well. They are not forcing you (yet), but they are really really annoying about it.
