You know how much trouble you will be in having said that on N4G! Three fourths of who comments on this site are brand loyalists that will defend their way until the end.
Sony? MS? Nintendo? Whoever else? They can do no wrong! We must defend what they do to the end and raise whatever hysteria we can to further their agenda no matter HOW ridiculous it sounds.
Yeah, there's no such thing as fair and balanced here.
Well, I think Sony should've won the LG thing. LG really had no logical reason, other than being greedy, to sue them to begin with and do all they did. It was a frivolous suit on LG's part. That's not me being a fanboy. That's the truth there.
However, that doesn't mean I'm going to defend them in the Hotz case. I think THAT case has things about it that are completely wrong. I'm all for Sony taking care of cheaters, but I'm not for them being ...
Metroid Other M was the last Wii game I played. Nothing much else has really got me to want to dust mine off.
Perhaps my Mother could make me dust it off again (hint, hint).
Damn...I agree with most people here. Yes, IGN is a shit site, but there's nothing wrong with this video. I thought it was pretty damn funny. Sure, the guy could go off the deep end, but he hasn't yet and is just a normal psychotic douchebag, so yeah, this site needs to lighten up!
WINNING!
Ummm...you just described N4G, not IGN!
Though...I don't see that much difference!
*Looks at the story*
*Sees the absence of the "burn Geohot" crowd.*
*Considers his point proven.*
"First response: The difference between getting hired and getting crushed by a software company is what you do with the security hole once you've found it."
Which is exactly what is being argued in the Sony v. Hotz suit (which I think Sony needs to grow up). Sony is saying that they want their system completely closed. I believe that their mentality is that they never did want homebrew on ANY of their systems, and their past actions both here and on the PSP exem...
This is N4G, dude. This is where MS and Sony fanboys come and bitch when the other side talks trash, and where you HAVE to defend your people to the death, no matter what it's about. These are mostly 13 year old kids who can't seem to stop nerd raging for even a second and use their brains. They treat their opinions as fact, can never see the need to back them up (assuming they can as it is) with ACTUAL facts, and think that wishing physical harm on someone or wishing that someone wou...
"Pal, why don't you save yourself the problems you might endure when Sony takes you to court and buries you in legal fees."
So that's all you have to do in order to win a case, is it? You don't have to prove that your correct in how you view the law. Don't have to prove that the law is something that favors your side of things. Oh no! That would be too difficult to do. All you really have to do is to make sure the other guy doesn't have the money...
Your problem in this blog is that you're giving one answer to several things about the issue where there could be different answers for each element of it.
For one, if we didn't have hackers, your identity would already out there. In fact, hackers are the reason why many things on the internet are as safe as they are now. People hire them to find holes in their software or hardware that could be damaging, and then, when found, they can fix it. No one has stolen anythi...
If I could:
Elika (Prince of Persia): freakin hot, and you would never die since she'd always be able to take any bullet for you and still live to tell about it.
I'm also on the fence about Jaina Proudmoore from World of Warcraft. She's strong, and anyone that could help take down the Lich King is deserving of a good night in bed. Thing is, she's kind of a snobby one, and she seems to want to be the one in control more times than one might be...
Just so you know, I've had that label shot at me more times than I can count on this site (guess why?).
Yet I've stood firm on where I stand on this issue. I think Sony is wrong to go for litigation here and the IP stuff is painfully reminding me of the warrantless wiretapping stuff from 2007. I wouldn't say it if I didn't MEAN it!
And I've been attacked from all sides because of it.
It does seems that you can't even...
They should at least make a trial so you will know if you're even going to like the game enough to commit to all of what they are asking you to commit to if you want to play it. The beta was closed for a while, and the open beta wasn't enough time (by the time I knew there WAS a beta, it was closed). They they give incentive for people who pre-ordered (as in, commit before you know anything...which meant you needed to be in beta enough to know enough about the game to WANT it badly en...
How about Two Face? He would be seen as the one person that would have a score to settle with Batman that would know him well.
So...hacking is as serious as child molesting and rape? Are you SERIOUSLY saying they're similar crimes?
And while those kinds of sites (with discussing molestation and rape) would disgust me, and while I think they shouldn't have any place in cyberspace, they are still protected under the first amendment. As long as you're not committing acts of molestation/rape, then the government cannot do anything to you. The web hosting service can (and should) be responsibl...
By who's account? Yours?
Hotz checked with his lawyers before doing the donation thing, so I doubt he wouldn't do that if he thought he would get into trouble by doing that.
And, to put a period to that point, several grassroots organizations, such as the EFF and ACLU (two organizations in which I have supported, by the way), have petitioned for donations. Both of them have a legal team that has helped people fight legal battles, and even when those t...
It's the notion that they are allowed now to do this at ALL! Why did this judge (which I was trying to search up to see if there was something about him that we need to know about...seems there's some question about him having a bias) decide that this was necessary? This is not just Geohot's site. This is Twitter, YouTube, and other sites that need to do this, and this involves telephone numbers and IP addys. Why does Sony need all of that, and why from so many sites? Could Sony, ...

Wow! Some of you people just don't know how to actually read anything, do you?
Why does it matter WHAT other platform I said? If I said 360 instead of PS3, would you have acted any different? Would that make you agree with me? Would that just make the Sony fanboys pissed that I used the 360 over their system (might be a plus since they seem to only know how to get on Geohot's nuts lately)?
See, the usage of a particular system is used as an EXAMPLE! P...
First off, all you really have to do to see how disgusting fanboyism is right now is to mention Geohot on N4G, and then just step back and watch the death threats and homophobia-laced comments fly!
I think this guy makes some good points. Thing is, with the lost exclusives, he left out two important ones: FF13 and Tekken 6. There's a good reason for that, I think, and I left a comment on that site explaining why. He also brought up Rising, which I still don't understa...
