The Sony Incident

[SoulShatter]

Now that the Playstation Network has had service returned, I wanted to see how this has affected you. I personally only use my PS3 for Netflix, and for Blu Ray Movies, so the Playstation Network going down didn’t really bother how much I use my PS3 (I just used Netflix on my Computer, and Phone with the outage). The Outage did affect my gaming though, because I was unable to play SoE games. Now, while I don’t play the bigger games like Everquest, or Vanguard, I do play a game called Dungeon ...

The make it right program was nothing more then an insult to any intelligent customer.

I have become extremely disenchanted with Sony over all of this. That said, I am not one of those who will swear off Sony products. I will however scrutinize what I spend with them far more though.

I played DCUO everyday, pvp'd raided everything you could do in it.

The downtime pretty much killed off my entire friends list in that game.

So, yeah...im done with that for now.

But the void was replaced by this game called "NBA Playoffs," but I think that game is about to end for my Thunder too :(

My friends decided to fire up their EQ accounts again because of the free month, and for the same reason I loaded it up to check out the time locked server. As much as I wish I could play it though, even on a time locked server it's still got all the later updated stuff in the UI that is just not functioning so it's this strange mismatched game with bits and pieces all over the place. It's interesting going back and getting a glimpse of what it use to be like though.

I've been thinking a lot about what current MMO's lack and the little things that made the older games so memorable. But that's another topic I guess. : P

They lost my trust. I hope the class action law suit puts a dent in there rep.

i learned long ago not to trust SOE games, but i do own a ps3 and the downtime put a serious dent in my FIFA play, it was really starting to piss me off. the 2 free games is pretty bs but whatever i think its better than nothing

the 2 free games

The what? I thought I saw the welcome back program but didnt see this.

So on top of this joke of an offer, right after we reset our passwords PSN gets taken down due to an exploit. Then today Sony Taiwan gets its website hacked and user data compromised.

At this point, I honestly give up. I love my PS3, but I seriously want to have it entirely disconnected from the PSN service. All I want is to stream netflix, play my games and play blu-ray movies. I have utterly no need for this garbage. If I wanted to continue getting fucked in the ass this hard, I would still be an xbox Live subscriber.

Exactly - the vision died when Brad sucked the cock of Sony for the first time ;)

These same hackers attacked CCP, the makers of Eve online. Game was down for a few hours but no damage was done and no data was stolen.

I'll say it again...SOE = floppy clown shoe.

Edit: It is kind of funny to look at my sig and see 3 SOE games. No haha funny, but "he touched me down there" funny.

He just needed money for his drugs.

I suspect this incident is far from over now that Sony has decided to start bullying the hacker community again. They clearly haven't learned a GD thing and at this point I expect the PSN to just get destroyed.

Where are you seeing this at? I haven't been keeping tabs.
