Re: Games Discussion Thread

Hell, from certain news, SONY even called FBI to track down the hacker/s

Shit just got real.......
 
Re: Games Discussion Thread

What, do you think this is just one big cover up for their servers frying themselves and them having to shut them down to fix it? Is that what you think?

I don't know the facts, plain and simple. I've only heard from a couple of friends about this issue. I have yet to read any articles or watch any news reports.

Hence me asking...

I don't know where the article is at the moment, but yes, someone did hack the PSN network, and publicly announced how he did it (on the internet mind you) and put his name (user name or gamer tag or whatever Sony calls it) on it, wherein Sony found this information and entered a legal battle with him, before Anonymous became involved.

Ah, so some pompous had the gull to stroke his ego? How lovely.

Any idea how hacking the psn is possible?

From the sound of things, it probably wasn't even all that hard. Sony probably had some big impressive thing up front, but once past the first layer very little stood in the way.

It's connected to the internet. Really, that's all that's needed for something to be hackable. There's no such thing as perfect security system.
 
Re: Games Discussion Thread

No kidding. Sony got hit more than they thought, and this time it's the SOE service. There go 25 million more accounts, plus we have confirmed credit card steals.



Sorry Playstation users.

If anyone has articles proving me wrong please share. I hate spreading false information. But as far as I know that's what's going on. Someone announced to the world how they hacked PSN.

Any reason why you guys just skipped the links I posted of their offical blog and say you don't know anyway you could know the facts from an offical of Sony? All you have to do is look at my last post on this thread and there are mutiple links to playstation, PSN, PS3, and PSP blogs. Thats just sad man, it was posted 4 days ago.

*shrugs* I didn't see them as sometimes I glance through threads. I also wasn't saying anything as fact.
 
Re: Games Discussion Thread

I do too, but I look for big posts and links. Then again, thats what I do. I don't know how you do it, but I guess links arn't in or it was an accident.

It was probly an accident. Also Sony's situation isn't that important to me, so even if I did see the links I'm not going to go looking through them. I was just sharing what I know.

That explains it, it was an intelligent opinion. So....your point is taken and noted!
 
Re: Games Discussion Thread

All i know it's extremely likely i'll buy the next generation's Xbox and ignore Sony and specially Nintendo (Screw their shit, i'm tired of their rehashes and easier and easier games). Unless Microsoft fucks shit up too and decides to make a new home console focused on shitty collections of simple or easy mini-games instead of complex or challenging games.

My verdict on Nintendo is out until I see what they have in store after the 3DS. It's a nice innovation, but I think they can do better than the Wii for a home console.

Sony..... yeah.
Well, I still have my PS2, at least.

Microsoft... well, I haven't really had a bad experience so far with the consoles, but we'll see what happens in the future.

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

Wow. It took me all the way until it hit the bottom before I realized what it was gonna do... I need sleep... XD

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess?

I knew that would be pointless, but wasted about 30 seconds anyway...

Re: Games Discussion Thread


Indeed. That's a Mattock Battle Rifle Shepard's holding! You have to shell out real money to get it in Mass Effect 2! And now they're just going to throw it at us for free in ME3? For shame, Bioware. For shame.
