    Management was unaware maybe because they're too busy deciding how to spend their bonus' for firing or umm "trimming the fat" from their online dept. Employees were likely too busy clearing out their desks, trying to figure out how they are going to keep paying their mortgage and feeding their kids to get the known exploits patched and or management notified :shrug:


    Talk about shooting yourself in the foot... I'm pretty sure they hit a major artery in doing so :clap:

    Ok, so all PS3 users get 2 free PSN titles, and all PSP users get 2 free PSP titles. Time to game the system and get all the titles offered (I have 3 separate accounts). :)

    Go fuck yourself.


    But on topic, I'm not affected by this because I use a different password for my emails than I did for PSN.

    If you disagree with the man's point then at least articulate it in a reasonable manner. Telling him to go fuck himself because you like a corporation that he doesn't is pretty low.

    I like the products, not the corporation...I mean SONY allowed tons of shitty movies to be made after they bought Columbia Pictures. I like their cameras, Blu-Ray players, TV's and consoles. I like Microsoft but really hate their console and gaming division.

    The PS3 and Xbox 360 are so alike that I'm immediately suspicious of anyone who claims to like one and not the other. It just stinks of fanboy.

    Exactly. Plus this is valid for other electronics as well.

    Although PSN is down, I was still able to update my new PS3 slim to the latest 3.60 firmware online. Not that I could actually get on PSN after the update, I just thought it was interesting that they still have the online firmware update system still running.

    Firmware stuff is downloaded from their site and not really through PSN servers. Remember when you're firmware is out of date, they don't even let you connect into PSN in the first place. They require you to update the firmware first.

    Supposedly PS3 game patch servers are running since they are somewhat disconnected from the PSN servers that got hacked. :shrug:
