xrobx said: i went and got a used ps3 slim off a guy that was in need of cash for 100 bucks, pretty much brand new. so this will be the ps3 i use for games. i will now be using my launch 60gb ps3 for ps2, ps1, linux, dvd and blu-ray playing. and i'm really looking forward to trying out 3.21OO. sony really pissed me off by trying to take linux from me, i've already decided i will be buying all my games and accessories pre-owned so they don't make any money off of them, and i hope they get hacked hard. |
yeah you show them, if you really want to hurt them you could just buy a bunch of PS3s, since they lose money on each one.
|
i thought about that too since they lose 40 bucks per console, but that would just boost their sales numbers and make their stock go up... i'll stick with pre-owned
|
You just arent a hardcore rebel then, supporting the pre-owned business can actually help Sony. The people who sell their used game do so to buy new ones most of the time. SO in turn you are helping that.
But anyway, down with the big corporations that provide these wonderful gaming experiences!!!!!!! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

Actually if anything it's more a case of sending said corporations a message that we have no problem with them trying to maximise their profits and their own interests- they're corporations, that comes with the territory. However at the same time, consumers have rights which need to be repsected and countries have laws which must be adhered to if they are to business in them, and they can't just circumvent said laws and rights just because it doesn't fit into the quick and easy solution when trouble starts brewing.
Noone here who has complained about the removal of the otherOS has had a problem with Sony wanting to protect their own interests- the problem has been the way they went about it and the fact that that way completely flew in the face of both business ethics and consumer protection laws in various countries.
|
If these rights have been violated where are the lawsuits? With the way lawyers work now-a-days, they should have already had them started.
|
Actually, the ACCC looks like it's currently building a case against Sony.
|
then why no injunction against Sony yet to halt the distribution of 3.21 pending legal inquiry?
