[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;29474465]I haven't seen any hate and I own a ps3. How come your always there to defend videogame companies?[/QUOTE]
Really? Then why are, say, the threads on here filled with stuff like 'Sony deserves it', 'Fuck Sony', 'Sue Sony for everything they have' and all that?
Still not defending these guys btw. Just as confused about all this as you lot.

Most of the time they get boxes for saying it. Really all I see is people worried about getting there money stolen.

Even so, most people are either in the process of contacting their bank to get it back or already have submitted a 'fraudulent transactions' claim. Now, assuming everything goes to plan (you know, like it should) and everyone gets their money back, a lawsuit like this (to me anyway) just feels like trying to squeeze Sony now they can.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;29474049]I'd almost think that Sony dropped a nuke on an orphanage or something.[/QUOTE]
They nuked the orphanage that is those twenty minutes I spent yesterday on the phone with visa

Uhh no, it's about making the fuckers pay. If you think they should be given nothing more than a slap on the wrist here, you deserve all of the boxes.

Oh please, shut up. Talking about customer support, brings back memories, gives me nightmares!
Which is strange, considering I'm actually dealing with customer support for a different company right now and it's going smooth so far.

And the massive damage to their name and network are totally not effecting them?
[QUOTE=garychencool;29470065]Sony is getting pwnd!
This is HILARIOUS[/QUOTE]
Yeah. The guys who are bringing us great exclusive games such as InFAMOUS 2, Sly 4, Resistance, Killzone, MAG, Heavy Rain, Uncharted are getting "pwned".
Fucking hilarious indeed.
I hope no innocent employees get punished for the fuckup.
And I need to cancel my debit card and get it reissued just incase, oh well least at the moment I have barely any money in my account. :v:

Almost sound like you were reading off an ad.
[QUOTE=Haxxer;29469943]that's quite the drop[/QUOTE]
Yes a 3% drop is a lot because the graph looks big :downs:
[QUOTE=RBM11;29475571]Yes a 3% drop is a lot because the graph looks big :downs:[/QUOTE]
On a big-ass corporation like Sony? Yeah, a 3% drop is pretty fucking huge.

A 3 percent drop in a day means hundreds could be fired.
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;29472484]Sony lost my personal info, they did that wrong[/QUOTE]
I'm talking about the hackers, why did they do this to sony? What did Sony do?
[QUOTE=red_rizer36;29475875]I'm talking about the hackers, why did they do this to sony? What did Sony do?[/QUOTE]
Depends on if you're referring to the people who hacked the PSN or the PS3 hackers (geohot, graf, etc).
[QUOTE=skynrdfan3;29471605]i thought the whole idea of this operation was to get revenge on the lawsuits they filed?[/QUOTE]
I seriously doubt this is related to a bunch of DDosing kids from 4chan.

Cause stock is totally not elastic in any way. Why don't you read the second graph posted and look how much it dropped on its own before this shit went down.
Pick any random company and you'll find tons of deviations throughout the months, all normal.
And it's not in a single day, it's over a week. And the second graph posted shows it's higher than it was a few months ago.

Wal-Mart for example:

so how much money did they lose from this lawsuit
I need to find out if there's a UK based CA going around.
Too bad a lot of people (i.e. all the 8 year olds who have a play station 3) won't hop on and get their money.
Why do I have a feeling that the guy who hacked all your credit cards..
Is chilling in the Bahamas, sipping a Pina Colada, with a red Hawaiian shirt on? :awesomelon:
I don't see why everyone is rating this "winner".
Sony doesn't deserve this shit.
It will probably end up like the Rockstar case, everyone gets 5 cents.

Hope he enjoys it all before his arrest, prison sentence, and being sued for billions of dollars in losses by sony.
As far as the lawsuit goes I feel sony was negligent in protecting the users data. You don't take a "shit happens" mentality with a screwup like this, claim some responsibility sony.
I feel like the next few days might be a good time to buy Sony stock, assuming they will reconcile one day.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;29470212]they're still doing it[/QUOTE]

Thats my worry is all these games disappear because of this.

I couldn't give less of a shit about all that fanboyish console crap. I play my games on PC and if they're not on PC, I buy them on a console. I hate Gears of War, the Halo series is over, Alan Wake was a single installment, not much of a reason to even own a 360 but on the other hand... the Playstation 3 has all the exclusives I could dream of. Just needed to make it clear that I'm no "fanboy", I simply enjoy the exclusive content that Sony provides.
That's why I've always enjoyed my Playstation series.
Its not the console that we should fight over, its the damn games!
I love how I just NOW got an email from Sony about the intrusion. Wow.
I love it when large corporations get fucked in the ass by the common folk.
