So, as a PS3 owner, I've been a little disappointed in PSN downtime since last week. And when I say "a little", it really is a little.

I've read so many articles people bitching about how they want to get compensated for something they use for free (with the exception of Playstation Plus folk, but if you bought into that, you deserve to lose your money in the first place), and how they're going to trade their PS3s for an XBox now.

I swear, gamers today are a bunch of whiney little bitches today. They've acted like life itself has stopped. More to life than video games, and if you love video games so much... go back and play some of the classic one player games that made video games so great.

Edit: My guess is that most of these complainers are probably unemployed or lazy college students who will probably drop-out anyway... or just lame ass high school kids.

I've not seen any people saying things like this. You should hang out in better gaming communities or something.

Um...because people feel entitled to shit (SEE: MetaCritic Portal 2 bombing).

...with the exception of Playstation Plus folk, but if you bought into that, you deserve to lose your money in the first place

:rofldata: :rofldata: :rofldata: I agree.

I've not seen any people saying things like this. You should hang out in better gaming communities or something.

This is the only gaming community I interact with. ;) It's been mostly random articles I've read on the subject though.

LOL @ Doc. <3

I NEED mah Super Street Fighter IV fix.

Argghh!!

I don't have a PS3, but Xbox 360 owners where constantly bitching about the November 1st update last year, and the multitude of problems it caused for nearly 3 weeks. Still... give people something for free, then something happens to it... of course they'll bitch.

im not bothered, i have a 360 for online gaming.
i only have mgs4 for ps3 atm anyway (though im getting homefront soon)

(though im getting homefront soon)

Please don't. It's bad.

As for me, well it's kind of a downer right now because I wanted to play Demon's Souls (I can still play offline, it's just better when you're online). If it was any other time, I might not even have noticed.

Damn! I hope the credit card info didn't get compromised. Nice of Sony to wait all this time to speak up.

I remember once reading that Sony was bragging about how secure and near invulnerable to hackers the PSN 'supposedly' was... This proves otherwise.

Please don't. It's bad.

As for me, well it's kind of a downer right now because I wanted to play Demon's Souls (I can still play offline, it's just better when you're online). If it was any other time, I might not even have noticed.

if its that bad, then i will still get it, and then add it to my gallery of horrors section in my collection. IM STILL LOOKING FOR A COMPLETE COPY OF SUPERMAN 64, ANYONE HAS IT?

the question is.. should i still buy it for ps3? i suppose psn will come back online eventually... and i want more games for my ps3.

if its that bad, then i will still get it, and then add it to my gallery of horrors section in my collection. IM STILL LOOKING FOR A COMPLETE COPY OF SUPERMAN 64, ANYONE HAS IT?

Do you have 'Plumbers don't wear ties'? or the following 'Night Trap', 'Sewer Shark' and the majority of Sega CD titles?

i have none of them. but i do have other sega cd titles... like double switch. howevere, even the SCD has its share of good games. mickey mania is an example. sure, its harder, but it also looks, sounds and plays better than the cartridge versions

Just because it's free doesn't mean people shouldn't complain. By providing the service Sony entered into an implicit deal with their users. Getting online play for free was supposed to be part of the advantage of the system and part of the justification for having to pay more for the hardware.

It doesn't really matter what the reasons are, they are bleeding player base every day the network is down. PS3 has been such a disaster for them. I consider it a joke on all the people who were declaring the N64 the end of Nintendo while humping their PS1s.

The PSX was way better than the N64 though.

I don't post much here anymore (mainly just dl from time to time) but I do feel we have a reason to be pretty freaking mad about this. Its been a week, and only now they tell us our credit cards and personal info might have been compromised??? Yeah maybe they didn't know the details until recently, but at least shoot us an email telling us that this might have been a possibility so we can change passwords/get a new card. I don't need "angry birds sorry" as an apology for that.

The PSX was way better than the N64 though.

The Dreamcast was way better than the PSX and the N64 though.

The Dreamcast was a next generation console then though.

The Dreamcast was way better than the PSX and the N64 though.

No, it really wasn't. It wasn't even the same generation anyway.

then the 360 isnt either

I have no idea what you are trying to say.

just because it released early doesnt mean it isnt next-gen.
period

Do you think you're disagreeing with what I said or something?

Because you're saying exactly what I said.

Man your post doesn't even make sense, though. Of course the 360 isn't the same generation as the N64/PSX or the Dreamcast. Man...


WHAT?

sorry i misread your initial post.
having more caffeine than blood in your body at 3 am is not really my prime time of thinking.

I have a PS3, but I don't do online gaming anyway, so I don't care that it's down.

It's getting stupid now.. The first few days/weekend I wasn't bothered cause i had it all off work and it was a bank holiday weekend so I was out all the time. But i'm off work this week/weekend and i was hoping to do some gaming. I've ended up reading books the last 3 days. Which is still great, but I do wish I could get online.

I just hope it's sorted properly when it comes back up. My guess is we will still have random downtime for the first few days after it comes back up. Oh and PS Plus is actually quite good. You get some stuff off the PSN that regular users have to pay for, access to beta that others can't get yet. Exclusive themes and avatars. Basically, it's just added luxury that, if you can afford it, is worth it.

The PSX was way better than the N64 though.

That wasn't really what I meant, the point was that the PS3's failure is kind of a mirror of the N64's. Sony was dominant when they were planning it, but then it came out too late, was too costly, and had nothing to play for a really long time and by the time it did it was so far behind it could never catch up. Pretty much exactly the same situation.

The Dreamcast was way better than the PSX and the N64 though.

It was way better if you didn't like the current trends in gaming at the time and way worse if you did. "old school" people tend to love the DC like nothing else, but for people who were really into the PS/N64 era it didn't have that much to offer. Overall though in terms of the amount of and variety of quality games on it for the cost of the system, I don't think you could objectively say it was better than the PS, regardless of what camp you fall into. N64, maybe.

the problem with the DC'S game library is that it had very few original or exclusive games (excluding sports games, since sega did most of them). most of them were ports of either the ps/64 or the pc.

The problem with the DC was two fold.

1) SEGA had fucked their fan base over for years with sub-par releases like that stupid CD add-on
&
2) The PS2 was announced with a freaking DVD PLAYER...and at that point Sony was well liked because of the PS1.


*A special mention goes out to Final Fantasy

dont be hatin on mah sega cd.

Wii60 master race.

PSN is full of scrubs.

It is painfully obvious you are from /v/, dawg.

Well, if your credit card is registered with the PSN and thus may be stolen, and another forumer reports that his credit card bill has suddenly filled up with random drug purchases, you'd be whiny too.

a lot of similar complaint in gamefaqs.

I�m glad that Sony is finally beefing up their security which in my opinion should of been beefed up/worked on when Anonymous declared war on them and I�m also glad that the PSN will be for the most part brought back to normal..

Well, if your credit card is registered with the PSN and thus may be stolen, and another forumer reports that his credit card bill has suddenly filled up with random drug purchases, you'd be whiny too.

Well, I posted this thread before that press release about cc info being stolen was made public. However, before that, people were bitching for the sole fact that they couldn't do online gaming... which was retarded to begin with. I will admit that after two weeks, it is starting to get a bit old not being able to do anything online, but I do hope this situation will improve Sony's security guidelines and such for the future.

It's funny how right before the PSN went down, I cleared out my cc and billing info from my PSN account. For some reason or other, they would not accept any of my cc info when I wanted to buy dlc for Marvel vs Capcom 3. It kept giving me some cryptic error I didn't feel like researching, so I just cleared out my cc info and decided to buy a PSN Credits Card online at Amazon. Lucked out on that one, I guess.

So guys, you've heard that everyone's getting a free month's subscription of PSN plus because of this right?

And there might be more compensation on the way.

So guys, you've heard that everyone's getting a free month's subscription of PSN plus because of this right?

And there might be more compensation on the way.

Yeah, just read about that this morning actually. A lot of people are weary of getting the free subscription if it requires you to input cc information to get the free trial. It'll be interesting to see how this unfolds and what other "freebies" they *may* include in this. Honestly, I say the best way to compensate folks is a $25 (or even $50, but that may be too far of a stretch) PSN Credit towards everyone's account. I'd rather have that over a Playstation Network Plus subscription, but that's just me though.

I agree. Anything you actually do with PS Plus will disappear as soon as the free month ends so I consider it kind of pointless. It's little more than a marketing ploy they could have done at any other time.

Same here. I'd have preferred that they give me a chance to make one of the cheap demos on my system the full version instead of giving me something that self-destructs after a month unless I pay up some more. Plus, what happened was extremely serious. Giving people something that explodes after one month and is something someone else is otherwise uninterested in is no different from shoving a demo down people's throat.

so, sony kicks everyone in the balls even MORE by just giving us disguised advertisements of the "benefits" of plus?
FUCK YOU SONY.

LOL.

lol it's still down.

Yeah, I'm quite surprised since I heard it was suppose to be back up last week...

sony says a lot of things.

Sony said she'd call me back.
:(

Seems like it won't be back up until the 31st of May. :P Oh well... I guess I can take a break from the PS3 and go play Donkey Kong Country Returns.

PlayStation Network Return "Uncertain", May Not be 100% Back Until May 31 (http://uk.kotaku.com/5799891/the-psn-may-not-be-100-back-until-may-31)

Sony confirmed that's fake. Of course whether that means it will be up sooner or later is anyone's guess.

Agreed.

Sony doesn't have much stock with things they 'say' and what they 'mean'. Case in point, Sony stated that Final Fantasy XIII was a PS3 exclusive, to which SE stated that Sony was wrong.

Gee Sony... things don't look too good so far, do they?

SONY is living on the edge like...99.9% of the time. But I'm not gonna whine about it. I mean...PSN went down and Osama Bin Laden was caught. Obama got so bored he said...well, I got nothing better to do. But he forgot about Osama Bin Diesel (http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/b2b6c3deda/human-giant-osama-bin-diesel-from-human-giant)

Now there's rumors going around stating that PSN itself will be relaunched with all basic functionality like online multiplayer and PSHome being paid services.

I hope that isn't true. I don't need one more service sucking cash out of my wallet.

Why on Earth would you believe that rumour

Because it's Sony, and they're money grubbing whores?

Why on Earth would you believe that rumourBecause it's Sony, and they're money grubbing whores?
Because 1. MS does it, 2. I've been having a streak of bad things happening to me this week, 3. Someone at LowYat says it's cofirmed (the other forum I refer to, the same one where one of the members claimed that his CC suddenly started showing random drug purchases after the PSN announcement that credit card numbers may be stolen) 4. Yeah. Sony execs are money grabbing whores.

They wouldn't make any money out of making PSN subscription based, they'd just lose a lot of subscribers.


Because it's Sony, and they're money grubbing whores?
I really don't see how, especially compared to Microsoft. Your fanboy is showing.

And man even if they did add a fee to PSN they'd be no worse than Microsoft at that point and you vehemently suck their dick all the time. You should stop talking about video games man because you are really no good at it.

Gee... and I guess being a fan of the PSX/PS2 consoles and amassing a large game collection of them, means I hate Sony eh? I dislike the PS3, not the earlier consoles, and it's proven that Sony has dropped the ball in the past so this is no surprise.

I should stop talking about video games? Howabout you stop pretending you know everything about games then. Everyone has their own different opinion about games/consoles and as this is a public forum EVERYONE can voice their own opinion. Don't like mine? Fine, doesn't demand you target my response just because you dislike it. Grow up.

I don't sick dick... that'd ruin your profession on the street corner, won't it.

absolutley bro, yeah lots of this people are acting like crazy ass shit, I guess they know nothing about classic games or maybe CODs are the only thing thats keeping them alive....I dont mind playing MGS all day long or maybe dust off some my PS2s geatest hits

I don't see what any of this has to do with you being a massive 360 fanboy. Sony really don't have a track record of trying to squeeze money out of you through any means possible. Microsoft, on the other hand...

Actually:
They're both companies so they'd both love to squeeze money out of consumers in any way possible. However, Sony knows that making PSN subscription based for everybody would be a bad move and in the end would mean less profit for them (do you have any idea how much bad blood that would create between Sony and its player base after all of this?). The point I'm trying to make here is that Sony aren't especially money-hungry when compared to their competitors, which you are trying to make them out to be because you're a massive 360 fanboy. Yeah.


I should stop talking about video games? Howabout you stop pretending you know everything about games then.
I don't pretend I know everything about video games. All I'm saying is that you know very little.


Everyone has their own different opinion about games/consoles and as this is a public forum EVERYONE can voice their own opinion. Don't like mine? Fine, doesn't demand you target my response just because you dislike it. Grow up.

I don't sick dick... that'd ruin your profession on the street corner, won't it.
This is some mindless babblin' right here, man.

Now there's rumors going around stating that PSN itself will be relaunched with all basic functionality like online multiplayer and PSHome being paid services.

I hope that isn't true. I don't need one more service sucking cash out of my wallet.

This is very unlikely. Sony would not roll out a new online security system for the PSN and immediately demand its customers to start paying for the service. That would be terrible marketing and besides, a good company would give proper advanced notice to its customer base before deciding to roll something like that out.


Because it's Sony, and they're money grubbing whores?

I have a lot of respect for you, Revan (Death's Head), but this does reek of fanboyism. Not that I'm objecting because people are indeed entitled to their opinion; just merely an observation.

Firstly FSITO, believe whatever the fuck you want, as of now, I really don't care what you think.

Secondly in response to your spoiler:


They're both companies so they'd both love to squeeze money out of consumers in any way possible. However, Sony knows that making PSN subscription based for everybody would be a bad move and in the end would mean less profit for them (do you have any idea how much bad blood that would create between Sony and its player base after all of this?). The point I'm trying to make here is that Sony aren't especially money-hungry when compared to their competitors, which you are trying to make them out to be because you're a massive 360 fanboy. Yeah.

Sony and Microsoft both are money-hungry whores. ALL the game companies are, and there is a firm fanbase for both PS3 and Xbox 360 in the gamer community. Some tend to look on the free PSN whatever, as a cheap move by Sony to try and get more gamers to purchase the PS3 and play, while others look on the Xbox 360's subscription based online capabilities as that there's less asshole gamers on that, as they won't likely pay the subscription. Personally, both consoles online communities are both good and bad... saying that one is better than the other because it's free, isn't a valid reason either... as usually something which is free, ultimately has lots of problems which occur (like what is happening at the moment with Sony) and can generally take ages to fix. I'm not saying that the paid service of Xbox Live is any better either, as the November 1st update for the piece of shit Kinect caused multitude of problems for Xbox 360 users and took over a month to rectify the main faults... with another 2 months to sort out the smaller bugs which popped up. So both have the faults, and as a Xbox 360 owner, yeah I was pissed... however, my PS2 was revived (hence I'm not solely a Xbox 360 fanboy).

Thirdly, how is it fanboyism to state that Sony are money grubbing whores? ALL companies are money grubbing whores when you get down to it. NO game company develops, produces and release games solely out of the goodness of their hearts. They are in the business of making money, pure and simple, so scrambling to get as much revenue back from gamers is just the natural course. My comment: Because it's Sony, and they're money grubbing whores? is true and I stand by it. Hell, I'd even apply in to MS and I WILL apply it to the Xbox 360 as well. Do I prefer the Xbox 360 over the PS3? Yes I do. Have no intention of getting a PS3 as none of the games interest, and what ones which do are available on either the Xbox 360 or (and more preferably) on the PC and I already have them on either of them. Why would I bother getting another console, just to play the same games I already have? Makes no sense to me...

Any event, I'm done with this thread. Flame me if you want, I don't care.

EDIT: I forgot to tell the reason I call Sony a 'Bunch of money grubbing whores' didn't I? The reason for such is not even due to the PS3/PSN ffs (thought I'm not surprised one little bit Sony's dragging their feet with this)! Four months ago I bought a Sony HDTV, which after three months stopped working/ Sony's call centre staff here in Australia are a damn joke, which finally after a run around, told me to send it in for repairs. I had to pay for postage & handling... then a week later, was informed to 'fully repair' the TV, I had to pay them another $200.00, and then pay for the P&H back. Told them to keep the fucking thing and went bought a NEC Flatscreen HDTV instead. That's the main reason I call Sony 'Money grubbing whores'.

Firstly FSITO, believe whatever the fuck you want, as of now, I really don't care what you think.
Okay.


Some tend to look on the free PSN whatever, as a cheap move by Sony to try and get more gamers to purchase the PS3 and play
I just want you to know that the language you've used here reveals how much of a fanboy you are. How is their business strategy any more cheap than Microsoft's? Here's a tip:
It isn't.


while others look on the Xbox 360's subscription based online capabilities as that there's less asshole gamers on that
I am pretty sure nobody holds the belief that 360's online is free of asshole gamers (except for big ol' fanboys, I guess). In fact, I'd wager most people consider 360's online server to have more assholes.


Personally, both consoles online communities are both good and bad... saying that one is better than the other because it's free, isn't a valid reason either... as usually something which is free, ultimately has lots of problems which occur (like what is happening at the moment with Sony) and can generally take ages to fix.
I like how these "usuallies" apply exactly to what's happening to Sony now and not really any other free online service (though, to be fair, there aren't that many to talk about). Anything to confirm your bias against Sony, I guess??


I'm not saying that the paid service of Xbox Live is any better either
Well, not directly anyway...


as the November 1st update for the piece of shit Kinect caused multitude of problems for Xbox 360 users and took over a month to rectify the main faults... with another 2 months to sort out the smaller bugs which popped up.
I could easily turn this around and say, "So obviously this is the sort of thing you can expect from paid subscription services/Microsoft." I wouldn't say that, but maybe somebody else here would say that sort of thing...


Thirdly, how is it fanboyism to state that Sony are money grubbing whores?
Because, as I've said, the language you used suggests you consider Sony especially money-hungry (and your story at the end confirms you believe this). No game company right now is as explicitly money-hungry as Microsoft are.


They are in the business of making money, pure and simple, so scrambling to get as much revenue back from gamers is just the natural course.
They wouldn't make the money back through making PSN being a paid service. They would only lose customers through doing so. Saying they'd make a poor business decision because they're money hungry is a silly thing to say. Also, another reason it's really dumb to believe they're going to do this is that they've already committed to giving out PSN+ to everybody, along with some free games. This doesn't seem like something they'd do if they're going to roll out mandatory subscriptions for everybody.


Hell, I'd even apply in to MS and I WILL apply it to the Xbox 360 as well.
And that's what I'm saying. You should sooner apply the term to Microsoft than you should Sony. Saying you'd even go so far as to call Microsoft money hungry shows your bias here.


Any event, I'm done with this thread. Flame me if you want, I don't care.
I'm not 12, dawg.

It's like elementary school

Elementary school isn't as bad as this...

No you couldn't :)

I can, but why bother when it'll just go over your head and then you pretend to be oh so important so ridicule what you don't know/understand.


And don't pretend that I've twisted your meaning by cutting out unimportant lines.

You focused only on what YOU want to read... ignored everything else. Standard fare with you and in all of your other posts on this forum.


Because I called you out on being a massive fanboy? Okay, sure.

Ok... I admitted to be a fanboy. If that means enjoying a certain game console more than any others, so be it. The PS3 doesn't interest me in the slightest, and yes I have played a few games on a borrowed PS3. I dislike the PS3, so when I hear about how the PSN has gone down or Sony's in trouble (For the umpteenth time) of course I'll have a chuckle and laugh.


It being your opinion doesn't mean it can't be ridiculed. Also, it is my opinion that you are a fanboy. Why is your opinion sacred and mine is not?

Never said my opinion was sacred and yours isn't. There is something called forum etiquette, where while you may disagree with a person's post, you don't trash them for it. You obviously don't know this.


How about this:
Don't like me calling you a fanboy or saying why things you've said are dumb? That's fine. Just don't be a big crybaby and sulk about my posts because you don't like them.

You know, you shouldn't talk about yourself like that... no wonder you have problems... but then being in a orphanage like you (Yes, I recall saying that line to you in your sig in another thread), one can only accept the fact that some get left behind, yourself included.


This coming from a guy who throws really lame insults and swear words around, all while crying "Stop picking on something I said!"...

So being respectful towards someone else is considered nothing nothing now? Yeah I insulted you, via PM (and not here in this thread, so to bring that up here... pssh.. whatever) but I don't recall every saying 'Stop picking on something I said!'. I think you should read the forum guildelines about how to treat others instead of acting like the end all/be all of videogaming.

However I do feel that both of us do owe a apology to Arigeitsu159, for turning his thread into a flamefest... yet, the topic has been discussed so, whatever.

I can, but why bother when it'll just go over your head and then you pretend to be oh so important so ridicule what you don't know/understand.
lol


You focused only on what YOU want to read... ignored everything else. Standard fare with you and in all of your other posts on this forum.
I already told you not to pretend I twisted your message. I only cut out bits that weren't necessary or I felt like I already addressed. And if you want to talk about standard fare, have a look at that second sentence you've got there. You've pulled a nonsense insult out of your bum, much like the lovely one I've quoted in my signature. That's pretty standard fare for whenever we talk!

You should be a fanboy (actually, you should never be a fanboy) because you enjoy a game console and not the other way around. And it's not like the fact you enjoy the 360 is the problem here. The problem is that you have a very clear bias and as such you aren't really adding anything to the discussion here.

As for all the trouble Sony has been in... I'm really not seeing it.

I don't think you've exactly been displaying etiquette in this thread so far, so don't attempt to lecture me. Also, I never knew calling a person out on something they said was taboo (because it isn't). Stop sulking.


You know, you shouldn't talk about yourself like that... no wonder you have problems... but then being in a orphanage like you (Yes, I recall saying that line to you in your sig in another thread), one can only accept the fact that some get left behind, yourself included.

Refer to

This coming from a guy who throws really lame insults and swear words around, all while crying "Stop picking on something I said!"...
and

You've pulled a nonsense insult out of your bum, much like the lovely one I've quoted in my signature.




So being respectful towards someone else is considered nothing nothing now? Yeah I insulted you, via PM (and not here in this thread, so to bring that up here... pssh.. whatever) but I don't recall every saying 'Stop picking on something I said!'
Do you remember this?

I don't sick dick... that'd ruin your profession on the street corner, won't it.

As for the second part, I'm not sure if you're saying you don't think that's what you've said or whether you're saying you've never literally said "'Stop picking on something I said!'" Either way, you'd be in the wrong.


I think you should read the forum guildelines about how to treat others instead of acting like the end all/be all of videogaming.
I don't think I've done anything wrong here, but you're welcome to go ask an admin.

Damn, at least the guy I was 'fighting' with was fun...it was a game of troll and fish...

You two are acting like the kind of folks who made retarded because their mom drank too much and/or couldn't get the wire hanger to finish the job so she let you live.

Seriously, neither of are even FUNNY to watch going back and forth.



For fucks' sake, at least toss in a random picture or two to make the conversation more fun for US...

How about no.

Actually I just came back to the thread so I could edit my last post and say I don't feel like continuing this argument anymore, so...

I'm not doing it for you though.

Speaking of not being funny

...

I wasn't trying to be funny, that's kind of the point...

Besides, I like making light of abortion - call it my version of "Riddikulus" if you will - but yeah...it's not 'funny' - like both of you.
:(

I enjoy a good internet fight or trolling, but only when it's funny...

I knew you would claim you weren't trying to be funny :)

Nah, 'edgy' would be me trying to be all diplomatic and Gaudi (minus the racism)...and you're joking, yeah?

I'd never ruin 'the mood'...cause baby all I wanna do is...

I wanna li-lick you from your head to your toes...
And I wanna move from the bed down, to the down to the, to the floor...
I wanna ah-ah, you make it so good I don't wanna leave...
But I got to kn-kn-kn-know what's your fan-ta-sy...!

Case in point. (Thread 89872) :D

Dang... it's crazy how one night away from the Shrine can change a thread topic so drastically...

Man there's a lot of bad posts in that thread!!

As in all of them. They're all bad.

Yeah, but you have to admit they're funny.

I only found it funny 'cause the guy was getting so upset over obvious trolling. I admit, my posts in that thread weren't great, but it was fun to sort of egg it on.

so uematsu stole from the jews, so? nothing of value was lost.

Seems the PSN is back up. Was able to play online although the PS Store was still down due to "maintenance".

Now THAT was funny.

I do not own a PS3. All of my friends who own a PS3 also own a 360, and each one of them prefers the 360. Not surprisingly, though. After all, with PSN you get what you pay for..... Nothing! BWAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!

Seriously though, all joking aside: PS3 owners whine, but so does everyone else. I use Nintendo WiFi and Xbox Live, and I tend to get more upset with malfunctioning on items I paid for. Why? Because money is involved. As for PSN users, even if the service is free, it's still a service and should be expected to work (someone said this earlier, I think... but I agree with them). In the end, we all have our right to whine...even if we're not paying out of our pockets. It's like having a promise broken.
