the last system I owned was the PS2.
I was thinking about getting a PS4 recently, but I was reading that starting with the PS3, you pretty much had to be "online" all the time, downloading software updates, ads, Sony marketing, and other advertising, and sharing data with Sony. Long gone are the days, when you can just flip on the TV and start playing... now you have to sit through 10 minutes or more of crap before you're ready to boot up. Is that true?
