I just donated to GeoHot... I must be some kind of evil hacker/pirate right? You "gamers" dont seem to know the difference between a hacker, a pirate, or a cracker.
Here, educate yourselves.

I may not have donated a lot, but I know Im not the only one. Read the other 28 pages on the forum from the news link...
All I was trying to say is that generalizing homebrew apps to just cheating is ignorant. Homebrew encompasses much more than just homemade apps to cheat in games. If your a programmer by trade then you should know this. And not all of the MW2 and Black Ops cheats deal with homebrew hacks. I think you were substituting truth for your personal belief in that last sentence :p
Your what people call ignorant... homebrew is not just about cheats. There will be tons of cool stuff coming out in the next few months that wont just be cheats for low life gamers...
Seriously people, quit acting like its the end of the PS3. All the other systems have been hacked including the Xbox's achievements and it wasnt the end of the consoles or the achievements. Sony is a big company that can handle this problem. Just the same way Microsoft has.
As for everyone thinking these are what people meant by homebrew, use your brain. Clearly developing any tweaks or apps takes time and research. The easy to modify parts of the systems such as trophies...

Now Sony can officially say "It only does Everything" lol
True, it does allow for hacks and cheats in online multiplayer games but now its Sony who bares the responsibility to weed out these users who abuse the rights of an open system. Something theyve not had to allocate resources towards which will cost them money and they're mad about it. However the 360 has been under the same threat for a while and Microsoft seems to have found a way to ban these consoles when connected to the internet.
Piracy is a result of jailbreaking a...
I love reading all the responses that claim there is nothing good about a system becoming open then piracy. Anyone have an iPhone? Do you see how much more useful it is when its jail broken and you can use homebrew apps? Hacking isnt just about piracy like everyone seems to think. People could release custom firmwares with special features, or perhaps even flash kernels to the system for low-level tweaks to the system. Maybe even find improvements that could be made on the SPE architecture. ...
Katana Yamaoto... the article's about both male and female hypersexuality. So I guess what you meant is that we'll be stuck with big boobs and slender bodies for women and 6-packs and muscles for men...
lol, your right. Its strange how people think that sexual stereotypes are bad. Last time I checked there was a difference between fantasy and reality, and sex was a natural thing that all creatures seem to partake in. Even the ones that have sex with themselves (Thats asexual for the people who didnt finish high school biology) Yet somehow its the sex that makes people distasteful, not the fact that people are being ripped apart and shot in these games... just seems ass backwards to me...
Not to spam post because of my reply above this one, but have you seen movies recently? How about read any magazines? Comic books? Games do this, movies do it, magazines do it, especially comics, all of the media does it. To say that games are in there teens, that just makes me laugh. I guess the movie, magazine, and comic industries are just elderly teens... Strange how you refer to games as being hard to see as an artistic medium because of sexuality when nudity has been in art for over 200...
I agree with Komega... so... your welcome? Good job on being a golden douche bag! Props to you! You even posted a picture of the award you won.
@Dragonfodder Yet another person who didnt read the article... how sad. If you did then you would have seen this "There’s clearly a problem when a character like Nathan Drake seems to be a relief from the industry’s muscular-man syndrome."
@PS3udonym Thats quite a bold statement. Seems like you havent played a real arcade racer in a while. To call Forza an arcade racer is just ignorance. (If you meant the opposite then its still dumb.) Im confused by your Counter-Srike to Black Ops analogy though, is Counter-Strike suppose to be less or more real?
@ALL I love how people hate on companies who advertise and insinuate that it was somehow Microsoft or Sony who influenced the results. Fact is that all companies want...
Meh... complain all you want. They need to hear it, but maybe this time around all you people who bought it will think twice about the crap you purchase. They get the money, you get a crappy game... you lose and your out 60$. As for me, Ill go hop on Counter Strike Source. Same type of fast FPS gameplay without all the glitches and connection problems. Sure its a little old, but at least I wont get kicked from a server for no reason or noob tubed to hell. Just have to play on the servers with...
lol, its all a matter of opinion like N4G has it categorized. Ill vote for whatever game on the list I feel was best overall.
I laugh at these people who cheat. Its funy to see them getting what they deserved. Although some took advantage of the glitches, and should be punished for it, I think reset stats are the best way to go. I mean, thats what happens when you dont properly beta test your games... thats on Treyarch... but also Activision for forcing these titles to come out before there ready...
Shouldnt it be up to the developer to decide when a games ready for release? All publishers care abo...
lol, that was hilarious MajestieBeast. Gave me a good laugh. Thanks for making me look more intelligent though.
