Many were excited when it was announced that the [amazon_link id=”B00CMQTVMI” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Xbox One[/amazon_link] would have an expanded friends list going from 100 to 1,000. Now in another bout of “anything you can do, I can do better”, Sony has announced that the [amazon_link id=”B00CMQTVQO” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]PS4[/amazon_link] will have a cap of 2,000 friends.

I am sure for famous people that have people clamoring to be on their friends list this is a great move. If you are just a random gamer and have the need for a 2,000 friend limit then I congratulate you on having a sparkling, magnetic personality and I would enjoy hanging out with you one day.

It was also announced that while you will need to be a PS Plus member to play games online you will not need the service to run Netflix, party chat or play free-to-play games.
