First off, they had a hand in the egyptian movement, small as it was they ddos some egyptian ministers websites, and show support for the movement. Not to mention this fights isnt over otheros, its about whether we will be able to have easy access to informatoin techonology as citizens, or whether we let corporations bully us into allow only people with power and money to own and control said informatoin technology. I am a sony fanboy to say the least, but i could care less about psn being do...
Al-Qaeda behead people in their videos, one of many major differences.
The reason sony is suing geohotz is over some propriatary code that he and others cracked and then shared with the rest of humanity. Now you have the right to question the value of this particular code for humanity, of which the value is minimal. However it goes hand in hand with the fact that information technology can if truely liberated can be used to help humanity, let us consider the knowledge of pharma corps. They hold extrremely valueable formulas that can and do better humanity, medi...
You guys really don't see the big picture do you, in this day in age we are in the middle of defining informatoin technology, and the right of people to access and build upon that knoweldge. This becomes increasingly difficult when the major corporations of the world decide to put a vice grip on tech and tech based info. We the people make and design this technology, sure in this example the proprietary code in question was deveolped by sony employees, it was none the less a human feat, t...
@cjflora
you honestly think thats how this was done ahahahahahahah, whats your next unfounded postulation?
your pathetic
Hard to see the forest from the trees sometimes and this seems to hold true for a lot of us gamers ont his issue. This isnt just about hackers and gamers and piarets or just the gaming industry, its about our right to access information technology for the betterment of humanity as opposed to the betterment of coporate bank accounts. I am a gamer and i happen to prefer playing games on my ps3. However, in my opinion sony is morally wrong on this issue, and most likey legal wrong aswell. Corpor...
Cannot believe how upset poeple are because they cannot access psn or a few sony websites for a few hours. I think you guys have rwal trouble seeing the forest from the trees on this one. This isnt just about hackers and pirates and gamers, it is about technology and information and our rights as humanity to access, learn and better our selves off of other peoples knowldge, I am a gmaer and this will adversly affect gaming as we know it today, having said that anyone who believes in the freed...
Just because sony defines a term in eula doesnt mean it is legal, hence why they are in court to get a ruling on this situation. They have a right to sue, doesnt mean they are right.
first of they altered the software, secondly you allowed to buy a book and alter it and read it and share it with a friend, you could probably sell it within a certain degree of similarity. I would like to point out however no one tried to sell any of the altered software. Moot point then, i woudlthink so. Geohotz will most likely get off on all the major charges against him, as he is mostly with in his/our rights. Having said that, do expect some major front by lobbist to alter laws that dea...
not to mention america has one of the worst internet infrastructers in the first world.
Well let me first deal with this article, there are many reasons why digital distribution is more effective than actual media. Physical media cost money to physically create, ie dvd blu ray, packaging son on and so forth, not to mentoin the shipping cost, not just the monetary cost but the logistical cost of releasing a game on the same day across a continent. Digital distribution relieves it selves of these cost to the devolopers, plain and simple they save money there. Now to speak to your ...
Takes a real douche to to correct someones grammar on a comments page. Secondly there is no such thing as "Hell", so then it's a moot point anyway.
Geat minds think alike
I find it funny that you thought it would be a good game. I think most people realized this one would be passable at best, no disapointment here. On a side note predator has many peers and more betters, your out of line buddy.
Author advised the readers that he put only the games he thought were coming out for sure this year. Of course you would know that if you had bothered to read the article as opposed to skimming it.
ya i own all three aswell, actually used to, my xbox 360 broke down this year. No worries though no good games to play on it anyway. I am sad to see that someone who calls himself a pasionate gamer would have sided with 360 this year. I am guessing your american, its about the only explanation for your love of 360.
you know why people who promote xbox get their bubbles taken away, because on a gaming news aggregate< where we can agree people who are passionate about gaming go, ps3 is the system of choice. Think about it, on a gaming news site you keep getting bashed for your blind love of xbox, if you can't take the hint, then here it is in plain english for you, gamers prefer ps3 over xbox 360 period.
Lets get real here, sony is by far the better system tech wise, game wise I think its an easy win for sony aswell, Xbox, fable 3 was average at best, mass effect 2 love thoses games, so bonus there. Alan wake really you going to try and trumpet that game, i mean its not horrible, however it certainly is no AAA title. Slinter cell conviction now your reaching for any half assed exclusive, that waas a horrible game. Sont lets see, heavy rain, good game that pushed the strory telling, narrative ...
Granted in todays climate corporations foster a certain amount of drive towards technology, that is not to say that drive couldnt be derived else where through different means. Governments change, ideaolgies shift, if there is one thing we can count on its change. I find you discredit the human spirit far to quickly. In fact, the ol steve woz example you gave only furthers my point, his knowledge he derived without coporations and in fact he had one of the biggest influences on tech, the fact...
