Dude, I really feel sorry for you.  Your unjustified hatred for a company has blinded you from the joys of gaming.  Take a very close look at my game collection.  There are so many games that have and are being offered on a Sony platform than any reasonable gamer can see that a Sony gaming platform is well its purchase.  But instead, you take this unfounded unproven hated of yours to find reason to love hate over gaming.  Maybe there is a lot of Sony support here because we gamers see the goods, and we want to see them keep bringing out the goods to all of the legit gamers that actually support gaming and not a petty fueled selfish agenda.  You can keep hating on, but the rest of are are going to keep gaming.


This isn't about hate for Sony.

This is about Consumer rights.  Sony was just allowed to go in and violate everyone's rights by taking away shit that they bought, simply because they felt like it.

Wait until it's something you actually want

 

And I have the right to play a game without the unfairness of hackers exploiting a system that makes it unfair for the mass majority. This helps protect Sony's IP as well as guarding the consumers' right of the majority.  And you know better that it's not "because [Sony] felt like it."  Sony just protected my rights as a consumer as part of the mass majority of PS3 owners.  Yes, the backlash against Sony is unfounded hate whether it's simple ignorance or platant belligerance when failing to see the bigger picture.


Consumer rights are a right, playing online is not a right.  You've made this statement in other threads and it's just wrong.  Playing online is a privileged provided by Sony not a freaking right.  Sony does not have to let you use its online service so it isn't a right.  The US government has to give you free speech so it is a right. 

If you're willing to give up consumer rights so that you don't have to occasionally come across a hacker online then your priorities are just off and terrible for those who actually want as much freedom as they can get.  I will never understand people willing to give the government more power because they don't like the HACKZERS!!!!!!!!!!!


Oohhhhhh...  So maybe installing Linux on the PS3 isn't a consumer right either.  No matter how you cut it, the logic cuts both ways.  Unfortunately, the ones bashing Sony here for their actions are not seeing the bigger picture as I've mentioned now and in other threads.  And you're doing the same by attempting to find "fault" in my statement when with the same logic can be applied to the other side of the argument.  Also if it's so important for some to install Linux on the PS3, maybe their priorities are off as well.  Thanks for pointing that out.  Oh... you didn't.  Go figure why.
