    Wait... how did Sony get my CC info... I thought PSN was free? :-O
  2. it looks like playstation is a brilliant console but lacks online services and xbox is a bad console ( it had a 50% failure rate at one point) but good online . Ps3 cost more but online is free xbox costs less but online is subscribtion based. Guess you get what you pay for eh?
  3. Looks like i'm going to xbox. Sony is terrible. Their connection is terrible. We get map packs always a month late to xbox. Sony doesn't have Halo. Now all our information is hacked by some looser nobody. Only good thing about sony is we can play for free :). When its working. :)
  4. psn doesnt fail that much guys c'mon and everyone who is worried bout your password or credit card should know there are 75million people to choose from dont think it has to be you........but yes im pissed and sony is gonna lose a few hundred users
  5. Glad i play PC, i dont pay for playing online (xbox) with kids, and im not getting hacked :D I can sit back and enjoy looking at little ps3 kids crying because they cant play their Call of Duty... So Funny!

  7. Hey everybody thought I would put a comment up. SCE I would just like to thank you for your network's epic ****ing fail lol XD. User accounts have been compromised and a lot of people are not happy with the reaction to the supposed "external intrusion". They say nothing is free and it has its consequences and this case being funding for your network capabilities and employee training.

    SCE Hacked = Human Error
  8. lets not take revege on sony WE NEED TO DESTROY THE FING HACKERS
  9. sony need to do something big to earn peoples trust back! or me and im sure others will go back to xbox's!
  10. Glad I'm an Microsoft user... **** Sony & apple.

    ^....you living under a rock?
  13. why is everyone blaming the hotz guy who hacked the ps3 itself? this hack has nothing to do with hacking the ps3 itself.

    this was a hack performed on the servers that the online service is hosted on, the servers that are located in a secure data center. it has nothing to do with hotz or anyone else involved with the hacking of the ps3's physical firmware/hardware.
  14. First of all, when you are describing something that belongs to another party the correct spelling is their, NOT they're. Second... Consoles suck compared to PC's. End of discussion.
  15. man i have to say im not to happy with the lack of consideration ps3 is showing us (the consumer the only reason i know psn is down is because i googled it! the amount of times ive put my name address phone number in youd think theyd of got a sry for the inconvenience msg to me 1 way or another. letaloan a date when psn might be up and running again,the truth is, so many people suffer unnessacerily that if maybe for a few days someone can get a bit of happyness in their life for once then they can have my details and try and live as me !theres plenty to go round on this earth! i share if ive got nothing, not to mension if i had millions! id never sit with a million pound in my bank knowing people can change their world with but a fraction of a fraction of that!yea anyway dont get down people as carp as things seem you have a roof and a PS3 witch will ineveitably be back online soon enough take a moment to think about those who struggle just to eat daily . we could all sell our ps3 and start a global charity for world unity then when everyone is ok we could unite for a mega uber space program those who wish to do so can traverse into space as a resource miner,explorer ,earth guards (for meteors, import an stuff)all that jazz! id stay here on earth and live in holland nursing the world back to good health! PEAS :)
  16. oh btw i cant access my email cause its been suspended i put me email on facebook as a contact,years ago and havent been able to access my emails since but i know i put my name address phone number in psn but no msg or phone call from them ? its been like 3 weeks ive been offline! think your black op king? 1v1 then when psn is back on? or a team game ? "Wisebud420" 18+only please, as im 30+!! Me an DnB will ruin you! or be your favorite team mates :D ps ive had both PS3 and XBOX360 and generaly i love online play with mates on either machine i kinda thought xbox was better than ps2 but i have to say i think ps3 have the edge on the 360 but to be able to game at all is a marvel!i think Sony and Microsoft need to join together and unite the world MICRONY needs to be born !

    I was being sarcastic. Sony is being evil. I have empathy for your situation.
  18. I feel like someone i added as a friend is trying to hack me. So as a result of this nuketown and radiation on the game Black Ops freeze up my ps3 to where i can't even play td or search and destroy on them. I contacted psn via phone about a password change and they helped me with that incident, however, it didnt help with the hacker issue. Im posting this to simply ask the psn for help and assist me on fixing this on black ops because i love playing on both maps that i mentioned. Thank you.
