Sony are not the ones who recieve all of the cash paid for games off psn you know? that goes to the publishers in this case Mojang/Microsoft.

The EU one has been down for the past 2 hours or so.

I'm pretty sure that all money that is paid via the PSN service will go to a Sony bank account from where Sony will reimburse the publishers/developers. So Sony is the only one who loses because they got no money from which to reimburse the content providers.

Sony loses and every competitor of Sony wins.

How does this possibly effect someone like Nintendo?

Basic business logic?

Every unnecessary loss for your competitor is a win for you. Especially with a company on the brink like Sony.

And please don't pretend as if I just said that this small thing will make Sony go bankrupt. It's just basic logic.

It's basically a flaw which allowed any number of people to pirate 2 copies of Minecraft on a portable system and a home console, those gamers will not have to buy another 2 games this month while they enjoy the spoils of the fuck up. Those gamers could have purchased games from rival systems rather than basically pirate Minecraft like this. No winners in Piracy when it comes to the companies trying to sell product.

Microsoft won't be happy about that...
