- Sony Says It Has Resolved Unintended Error with PS5 Ads

PlayStation Fans Annoyed at Initial Update
A tech error with the Official News feature on the PS5 console has since been resolved.
Sony was on the receiving end of the ire of its user base
PS5 users took to the internet to express their annoyance following Sony's update
PlayStation 5's home screen now reportedly shows art and news related to a game the user focuses on.

"It's weird people are defending this. Who wants to spend $500 to be bombarded with ads they didn't ask for?"
