Theoretically their community management tools are based on PSN, which does make some sense. This is the official reason for it. Of course they're also hoovering up all your data to sell also. That's the reason that gives them more money, so the real reason.

I mean, it IS their own game. Let's not be disingenuous, they would be doing the same even if it was Steam data.
