    Yes and no.
    He asked for support, it was given in terms of money, Sony Complained.
    Which is the "right" way to stand by him, Sony took that away.

    Taking down PSN, is no more then a E-protest, much the same as a Bus Drivers strike.
    Im MORE then happy to go picket a Sony office.

    While the PSN attack doesnt have anything to do with Emulation, the ruling case does, this case goes through, and the judge rules for Sony (Which i wont), then bye bye emulation.

    Its basicly a "Dont fuck with us" to sony.

    @Yip Yip,
    His on Holiday bro, he told the court that.

    It would seem that way. In any case, he does what he does to impress his gay nerd boyfriends, I could care less about "next-gen" consoles because my PCs make them retro by comparison.

    Strikes, yeah. Don't get me started on them, if there's something I detest with a passion is that

    Anyway, if it's basically a "Don't fuck with us" to Sony it's only fair if legit users of the services also say "Don't fuck with us, hackers" as they have nothing to do with any of this. I find it really hard to justify some actions.

    Am not impressed with this generation of consoles or the people hacking them. Wii is a fancy Gamecube.

    @Screwed.

    We agree, and disagree, there are points that we agree on, yes there needs to be a better system in place to dispute and pay for items. Steam for example, American prices are lower then Australian prices, fucked if im payin 120 bucks for a video game i can get from the states for 50.
    I understand where you are coming from in that sense.

    We agree, that Sony did have it coming, i think the only real difference would be the way we should/would handle it.

    Maybe its just my brash attitude, i think this is fucking insane thou.
    I love Anon, and everything they do.

    @Cookie,
    If anything, a major company like Sony should, have invested in a security system to prevent this, should they have not?
    I mean if asian botters can DDoS a little WoW bot and they can prevent it, one would assume Sony would have the power to stop it.
    They had ample time and warning.

    If anythign PSN users should be going "WTF Sony?"

    yeah I hear the Australian prices are a little crazy, and so is the rating system? I always read stories on how this or that game got banned in Australia.
    does Steam charge you in Australian dollars? and its still 120? that is wild. As far as I can tell, the Australian dollars are only slightly higher than the US dollar.

    We used to be able to pay in US dollars, which compared to our currency is like 1 dollar 5 kroners. But now they force us to pay in Euro, which is 8 kroners on the dollar. And the price is the same.. 20 dollars does not translate into 20 euros, well I guess thats why Valve has all the money

    Australia is the WORST internet country in the world.
    Goverment wont pay for new copper line, our copper line isnt copper, we forked out for optical line along our train tracks, it isnt used.

    We have a rating system with no R18+, we wont be getting mortal Kombat, becuase some white hick polly doesnt want little johnny playing a video game with blood, yet the problem isnt with the rating system its the total lack of control, major stores dont check for ID, and little johnny comes home with a MA15 game and his parent run and have a cry to the minister.

    We pay full retail pricing for a game that doesnt come with a CD, yet we use a proxy to get the game for half price.....

    It's why a lot of us are pirates, really.
    Most do it 'cos it's cheaper (obviously)......but it's also a matter of principles to some of us.

    that really annoys, we have no issue with 18+ rated games not coming into shelves. So I guess I cant complain there.
    But people still dont care about the rating system, parents buying kids shooters with the "it's just a game" excuse. I saw a mother buying a new xbox with MW2 for her 10 year old or whatever for Christmas. I had to step out of line in case I said something..
    It's just annoys me, people like that are the ones causing trouble like the kind you have.. gaah.. pisses me off.
