ontopic: A question for those who are tech savvy in this field.

What can Sony do to counteract this recent exploit?

For all the (3) people that reported this submission: It's NOT piracy. The article mentions no "torrents", "games" or provides any instruction on how to illegally download or distribute software. HACKS and exploits =/= piracy.

Why are there NEVER any reports for videos of CoD glitch exploits or Kinect hacks? Why, are there never any reports for articles detailing that a high profile 360 game has been leaked to torrent sites?

If this su...

Damn you Wordpress database errors!

This subject is nothing new, it gets brought up EVERY year even when the 360 had an unrivalled amount of games in 2007. The excuse then by fanboy's (PS3 mainly) was quality over quantity (something they were quick to dismiss the following year).

If only that title meant something else :(

GT5 was by far the most disappointing game of 2010. I was slightly disappointed with Alan Wake also, ironically both games had long dev cycles.

Cry me a river.

@deadreckoning666: Nice edit, I agree with the point you're trying to make but alas it will fall on deaf ears.

So that explains why the PSN hasn't evolved beyond copying it's competitors. After 4 years Sony are now estimating that the PSN will be profitable? Largely because of PSN+ perhaps?

Although the PSN being free is one of it's benefits, it's also one of it's pitfalls:

Sometimes being in third place is a good thing.

Wow!! I have never seen a PS3 fanboy struggle to make a list before and also make a list with more multiplatform games than exclusives.

mind=blown

I thought SOCOM 4 was already announced? Also why is Bulletstorm in the tags? Motorstorm?

I don't know whether it's good or bad that, that list is almost 100% sequels. The only game I'm interested in on that list is The Last Guardian, it will be interesting to see if it makes 2011 though.

"Microsoft is working to improve the accuracy of Xbox 360 motion-sensing add-on Kinect so that it could detect finger movement and hand rotation, Eurogamer understands."

Like this Kinect hack? - http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Also I found this Kinect optical camouflage hack interesting -

"Square Enix drastically reduced its earnings forecasts for the remainder of the fiscal year from 12 billion yen (approx. $142.4 million USD) to just 1 billion yen ($11.9 million)"

Wow! I doubt Square Enix will file for bankruptcy just yet. But as Square Enix seem to be having financial problems as of late, can they really afford to limit their earnings by creating a AAA budget exclusive game for one system at this point (FFvs13)?

Have you ever been as far as to decide to even go want to look more like?

Why don't we just wait for official numbers.

Also how does VGChartz acquire it's data? Is it based on anything or purely guess work? I remember MS laughing at VGChartz November Kinect numbers.

"This is the same group that said that the 360's failure rate was down to 4%"

Wasn't the 33% failure rate of the 360 estimated by a US company or companies, using data collected from the US population? Why have I never seen you question those statistics but yet you question those I quoted above? Do they not fit in with your agenda?

Are you cereal brah?

Do even know what GT5's competition is? (without using google)

"People can choose a lot of genres on ps3 system so we won't see uber sales like 12,13 mill!"

That reasoning (excuse?) is starting to lose some of it's credibility when:

1. Best selling game on the PS3 is a multiplatform FPS
2. The second best selling game on the PS3 is a multiplatform FPS

I hate to say this but there is nothing special about PS3 owners in terms what games they purchase in large numbers compared to o...

Yeah I remember Activision threatening to stop PS3 support if the PS3 didn't receive a price cut, though I'm pretty sure they had inside knowledge that a price was coming anyway.

The EA hate stemmed mainly from PS fans due to crappy ports and (so they say) EA's "greediness" etc, but now EA are welcomed with open arms by the same fans because EA are now on Sony's nut-sack. Completely forgetting that EA are still the same "greedy" and "e...
