A new week also means a new edition of the Peepshow. JJ and Boris are ready for you to go crazy about the console scalpers, the PS5 ban for abusers PS Plus offer, the latest rules in China regarding Twitch and of course even more. Just sit back for a while, it’s time for a new Peepshow.
The professional scalpers of the PS5
We all found out the hard way that it wasn’t and is not that easy to put on a new console to come. At least, in a normal way. For example, it is possible to purchase a PS5 at Marktplaats, for example, but then there is a catch. And that catch is the fact that a user on Marktplaats can determine his own price. This ensures that the latest PlayStation console is sold for a (much) higher price than intended. For example, there is an offer of more than 1000 euros. And this does not only concern individual persons. JJ has taken a look at a professional website that is also busy reselling scarce items, and well …
PlayStation is busy with the ban hammer
One of the best things about having a PS + subscription on the PS5 is the PS PLUS collection. A collection consisting of 20 games that are playable by the subscription member on the PS5. What not everyone knows is that these games are also playable on the PS4 as soon as you reason them. This has put Sony (through its own mistake) in a situation in which they logically would rather not have been. Because PS5 owners sold access to their PS5, so that other users could place these games on their own PS4. And that is not the intention. So what has Sony come up with on this? Well, they’ve been hard-handed with the ban hammer. Boris and JJ naturally have an opinion on this.
