Disable Parental Control / Age control for online mode.

Hi,

We recently bought one PS3 and I foud a big problem. I'm adult but one of the users of it is under age.

I registered his account as a sub acount of mine and I disabled parental control cause I want his account unrrestricted.

 

He can play MW3 on history mode but can't play online (says that Its restricted by the parental control).

 

I disabled all settings about parental control in PS3 and on his sub-account but still cant play.

 

¿We cant remove that restricction or we have to fake the age? (If we have to fake the age I think that is stupid and maybe return the PS3 and change it for other console... cause no entrepise should say what can do our childs if we allow them to do it)

 

Regards.

Mate the best thing to do is create two sepperate accounts with two seperate e-mail adresses. no harm in saying your bothe over 18. what he plays should be down to you and it shouldn't impare your gaming experience. hope this helps.

That would also be against PSN TOS and could result in a ban.

Thats why I dont want to fake age, cause its against TOS.

 

I read a lot about this and I think that the only way is to return PS3 to store and go ahead for another gamming system or improve the PC.

you will find if set up on the propper DOB the other system is the same.

Even MW3 elite won't activate on a account under 18.

Sony are stabbing their loyal family customers in the back - We have 3 PS3s and 3 PSPs all on the same IP address and all registered with Sony. Why can't we use them at the same time anymore?
