Everyone switch to xbox, we have this special thing called online play. Its pretty fun guys.

You do realize if Sony were to go out of buisness it would be a wonderful opportunity for Xbox to charge more for everything.

Third Attack you say?
At least nothing of value was nabbed (Only 2,500ish basic infos from a 2001 database)

As expected, more delays are a result.


That was a great post. Right Zach?

Fortunately sony wont go out of business. Besides, regarless of psn being down, sony does have a better single player roster, so being offline wouldn't be nearly as painful as Live going down.

PSN is never coming back.

Seriously, fuck Anonymous or whoever's pulling this shit.

Cyber-terrorism is one hell of a thing. This stopped being hacking for info a long time ago, this group is a bunch of exhibitionists.

What is so stupid about the article? It brings up several valid points. Personally I think the RRoD fiasco was worse than this PSN lockdown because at least PS3 users can play single player.
RRoD victim: "IT DOESNT WORK ANYMORE"
PSNotwork victim : "HAHA IT STILL PLAYS GAMES"

Regardless the two situations can be compared to an extent because both involve a major issue with the console that takes away from the full experience. Both were/are public relation nightmares for the respective companies as well.

You guys think those hackers are fucked? :P

I don't think so, those hackers are getting rich. If Sony finds them, they will pay them a shitload of money to point out the flaws in their system.
At least that's what I think they should do if they want PSN to be up as quick as possible.

They lost too much money to pay them a shitload of money. But it would be a smart thing to do.. That is if hackers even did this... So many conspiracies about it. It's crazy

Wow, it's still down? Kind of makes me glad to play Xbox. Not to be fanboyish of course but this probably had something to do with the fact that Sony doesn't charge for their online service so they can't afford proper protection for their services, for $50 a year I think I would rather pay for a reliable service than pay nothing for a broken one. But at least you guys can still solo it or co-op with friends or something like that in the mean time. I just feel bad for those who got MK9 or some really expensive game and hasn't been able to play online yet.

Has XBL ever been hacked and forced to be taken down indefinitely?

I'm going to have to agree on this. You really can't tell what would happened if a similar attempt was projected on to Microsoft. Just because they charge for it doesn't mean the money goes into the service, but then again who knows without actually working there.

The fact that you won't aknowledge that anything can be hacked at any time, including XBL saddens me. And to think I looked up to you

I acknowledge it can be hacked. Now quit repeating yourself and answer the question: has it been hacked and forced offline for any extended period of time like PSN has now?

It has not been hacked, but it has forced many people offline for up to three days.

Halo 3 launch...

That seems fairly minor compared to what's happening now with PSN.
