Well done Sony, well done. You have successfully lost my and probably thousands of others trust. Give yourself a pat on the back, you are fucked. Oh well, at least the welcome back package is still up....but very glitchy and full of errors where downloads miraculously disappear....boy oh boy Sony's on a role ain't it?! Honestly, was anyone surprised about this?

I just think these hackers need to stop their bullshit. If you got a major problem with something like a company, that's fine, but when it effects millions of people, that's just messed up. These dicks just need to stop

Okay, son of a *expletive*. This is seriously pissing me off. It's not Sony I'm pissed at this time. It's the hackers. They're jerks and deserved to be burned alive like Lisa. :\

I wonder what would be the reaction if it were Microsoft getting hacked. Hmmm?

Well, considering I own a 360 also, and Harmony of Despair isn't on PSN yet (though it was confirmed)... I'd be pretty pissed still.

I think the hackers was paid from microsoft to hack sony. Woulda explain alot for me. lol ^^

errr. How can u not be pissed on sony? I mean, its their job to save all our things from hackers. So i really dont get you...
Are u gonna pissed on a bandit who stole most of your thinks or are u pissed of the, lets say 10 police officer´s, who are right there and just watch and not do their job for what they get paid...?

I understand that there are people out there that are better than a company's security service (and believe me, I know), and sometimes that person is so good the company can't stop them. But why do they seriously have to do it again.

What I don't get is why everyone assumes Sony's just not doing anything about it. People need to understand, there are people out there who are better than the companies. :\

EDIT: I just realize how badly I worded my original post. o.o

Here's what I meant: [Okay, son of a *expletive*. This is seriously pissing me off. It's not just Sony I'm pissed at........]

There. That's what I meant. My bad.

Xbox 360 isn't a bad idea. It's online service is better than Sony's (as in, no hackingnessness), but the online service isn't free. The controller, while it is bad, it's an improvement from the hulking mass that was the original Xbox's controller. Plus, this one will eventually grow on you. (Not literally, and note that the d-pad on the Xbox controller is terrible).

I play often xbox when im visiting a friend of mine. Playing Black Ops or Test Drive...I always need like 20minutes to handle this controller. And i never had problems to handle a controller except xbox one...Its so big...used a psx controller since ps1 came out. So its a mess with the xbox colors for me.lol  And the 2 sticks looks like they just put it on a free place. The controller is already a game for me...
But ya...online service looks very good to me.

[Claimh Solais]

Well, in my opinion, I like the placement of the sticks on the 360, it's just more convenient on a PS3. And PS3's got a better d-pad.

Online service is great and easy to use, but for the interesting stuff and the ability to play online, you gotta pay. I guess that's one reason its not as hackable.

Well if Microsoft did the same thing as Sony where not only would they get hacked once, they would promise protection and then get hacked again then yeah I would be infuriated with them. Don't think I'm a Microsoft fan boy, I treat all consoles equally with their own advantages and disadvantages. Now Sony's disadvantage with me is that they can't be trusted with protecting personal info.

You CAN get 3rd party controllers that are sometimes way better than the stock 1st party controllers.

This exactly. They have some that are modded and put in the style of PS3 controls, even with a better d-pad. I can't afford one though, sadly.

3rd party video games. Like Castlevania. I dunno if that counts, though.
