Yes, you can't do anything really on the PSN unless you have an account. The biggest reason is so you can register your Sony consoles to it, to allow them to access whatever PSN content you purchase.

You need a Playstation Network Account to go online on the Playstation Network, but the Playstation Network is free. You need only have an email address and be over 18 to get a PSN master account. If you are under 18 you will need to have a sub account under someone who is 18. The PS4 does not require an online connection, but it is almost as worthless as having a phone without a provider. The system was developed and designed to be used with the internet just like the PS3. Both do not require the internet to play games by yourself and others in your living room.

It is not like Xbox that charges for the account. The Playstation Network is free and offers the Playstation Plus Service for the cost of Xbox Live offering free games and more as well as lower prices

Yes it does not cost but the online games are played only on the Playstation Network so you have to have it if you are using a PSP or PS3
