Sony's PlayStation Store taken down to comply with new South Korean law

Sony's PlayStation Store taken down to comply with new South Korean law

We know that when it comes to gaming, South Korea has both a vibrant and a rather strict gaming culture going on at the same time. Now it seems that PlayStation 3 gamers who are looking to access the PlayStation Store in South Korea might suddenly find themselves unable to access it. According to reports, a new "Game Industry Promotion Act" will be going into effect starting on the 1st of July in South Korea. What this new law does is that it makes it illegal for online services to ask someone who is under the age of 18 to verify their account with their real name or age.
