Damn cool box art.
"How many times does it have to be explained to you that info is never safe?"
And how many times must it be explained to you that that little fact doesn't make it right? Sony didn't do a very good job at handling the situation. They kept us in the dark for like a week, with little to extremely vague information, then come out just a few days ago and tell us, hey, all your personal information may have been stolen, sorry, here's a 30 day trial of playst...
"and Sony aren't God"
You wouldn't know that based on all of the comments here at N4G.
Two people think you are asking too much.
I'm not saying what they are and aren't legally obligated to do, I'm saying what they SHOULD do. I know that ToS bs.
"Third, if you think that sony by its good graces must reimburse you for something more like your ever so valuable time, grow up."
No, I think they should reimburse me because I've been a loyal (loyal in that I buy tons and tons of merchandise that almost 90% of the time wasn't worth the full purchase price) custo...
Psh, what are you talking about? Sony doesn't owe you anything. If anything, YOU OWE SONY! You should be so honored as to have the opportunity to give Sony your money.
/s
Just kidding, but I have actually seen the "you aren't entitled to anything and if anything, YOU owe sony" comment used by some pathetic fanboy on this site.
*sigh* Fanboyism used to be just a simple hobby/competition, now it has become an act of worsh...
And you sound like a corporate tool.
Sony (at the very LEAST)owes it's customers (the ones that got them where they are today) an explanation and a timeframe.
Stop defending a company that doesn't care about you. They are not your friend, no matter how desperately you want them to be. Find something else to love, something that will actually love you back. Perhaps a girlfriend, or even a puppy? But please, don't be such a pathetic waste of spa...
Give us a timeframe on when it will be fixed, explain to us more specifically why they shut psn down.
"Not the main function of the system mind you, just capable."
It's part of the price. By your logic, I could argue that the ps3 has "game capabilities". You can't just separate the features because you don't like them, they are included in the price.
"You paid $65 for Portal 2. (A single player game with multiplayer option."
That's your opinion that it's a single player game with a multiplay...
I paid 600 dollars for a console with ONLINE CAPABILITIES. So yeah, it did cost something. I also paid 65 bucks for Portal 2, yet because of Sony's inability to fix the problem fast enough, I have only been able to play a PART of my game.
I want reimbursement for that lost game time. A PSN game would be fair, and would do fine.
"If anything YOU OWE Sony money"
Lmfao! Wow. I truly feel sorry for you. You actually think Sony is your friend or that they care about you? That's freaking priceless :D
Oh yeah, I owe Sony. /s Surely they didn't include those features to sell more ps3's and make more money. No, they did it for charity, because they love us so much. /s
Lol, it's kind of hard to comprehend how someone can be as stupid as you, bu...
"Sony has no obligations to reimburse anyone anything because none of our money were used on the PSN service itself."
*facepalm*
Oh, so Sony just decided to add online capabilities to their console for free? Surely they wouldn't raise the price of the ps3 by [whateveramount]? No, that would be silly. They just decided to add online capabilities to their ps3 because Sony are a bunch of swell guys/gals whose primary interest is in keeping the co...
"but the same thing can't be done with PSN because you don't pay for the PSN and you don't really have rights to it if you get a PS3."
I paid for the ps3 though, and online capabilities were included in that purchase, and I also paid money for the online games that aren't working because Sony hasn't fixed them yet. Online gaming isn't free, it's included in the purchase price of the console. People fail to realize that just because Mic...
I can't play my games online that I paid for. Stop defending a company that doesn't care about you.
Just because one company (MS) had the gall to charge for online doesn't mean we should treat online gaming as some sort of free gift. We still paid for the console and the games, and the online was part of the price when we bought the thing. They didn't just throw in online capabilities because they were nice people.
I just bought Portal 2 as...
Is that supposed to give us ps3 owners some sort of solace?
Honestly, the fact that XBL kind of sucks does absolutely nothing to make me feel any better about the fact that PSN is down at the moment, so why bring it up?
How the hell are you on Netflix? When I start it up, it keeps asking me for my damn psn login, and I've tried cancelling out of it and signing in, and neither of those two options work.
I can plainly see that Netflix is on in the background, but I can't get that damn login screen to go away. How do/did you make it go away?
It's like Netflix, except you don't get to choose what you want to play. They choose for you.
PS Plus simply doesn't seem worth it to me (and no, neither does xbox live, I don't play my 360 or have xbl, so don't respond to me with some xbl insult thinking that it's going to piss me off, it won't, and I will probably agree with it).
I was all psyched up for PS+ when it was announced, but when they announced that you couldn't ch...

"Yeah, it might even prompt them to release ones with more variety in price"
Hopefully. I hate paying 20 bucks on a PSN card even though I only want a 15 dollar game.
