tutankamun Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Calm down dear, it's only a games console :-) People like to get excited over which product is better. Pro Evo / FifaAdidas / NikeBMW / AudiPersil / Ariel These corporations must love seeing the way we consumers are sucked into their branding strategies. At this moment in time it seems Xbox Live security > PSN security however I still prefer the PS3 to the Xbox. Which is fortunate considering I have a PS3 but don't have an Xbox. Link to comment
thebladder Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 looks like Sony are going to dish out a few free games when psn comes back on-line Prob be crappy games like but better than nowt. Link to comment

"Someone stole all your credit card info, email, password and addresses. But here, have a few free games. Don't sue plz?" Link to comment
Jack_Glass Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 thankfully i did not have any credit/debit card details on the psn database, i prefer buying games from amazon, i don't often go on-line with the ps3 anyway so it was no loss while it was off, still i'll be happy to accept their free games offer when it comes out soon, i think they are also offering free insurance for a year to protect peoples bank details, that's the least they could do Link to comment
thebladder Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Yup, free identity protection for 1 year, 30 days of psn+, choice of 2 games from these 5: InfamousLittle Big PlanetRatchet and ClankWipeout HDDead Nation And I think some free movie rentals too. reasonable compensation I'd say.

StandFree1982 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I'm going to download Ratchet and Clank...maybe Wipeout HD. Not sure about the others, would need to have a look. Little Big PLanet is decent, but i've already got it. I managed to get connected and changed my password, but I couldn't get into the store. Anyone know how to get these "free" games? are they available yet? Link to comment

The Playstation Store is still down at the moment, once it's back up, you'll be able to get your "welcome back" gifts. Link to comment
zig-a-zig-ah Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 which is the best from these games? Infamous and Dead Nation look nae bad, but they are both from 2009 & I think they both have a 2nd version out now. Wipeout was always decent on the PS1, so could be a shout... Link to comment

Otherwise i'll have to stick with Ratchet and Clank. The bird would play that, keeps her quiet for a while! The selection of games is pretty poor, I know we are getting "two free" but it's hardly a great selection. Better than nowt though... I keep forgetting I have FF7, which is on mp PSP....amazing game! Think I'll resurrect my psp for that game alone! Link to comment

thebladder Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 which is the best from these games? Infamous is a great game, I traded it in over a year ago but will probably grab it and play through again (as evil Cole this time) before Infamous 2 comes out next month. Will probably take a punt on Dead Nation cause I have Wipeout HD already (it's decent) LBP and Ratchet & clank are pish like. Link to comment
boboisared Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Like f**king shovels Boo Boo! Take it you're on PS3 instead of 360 as you're just worried I'd give you a doing on UFC! Link to comment
zig-a-zig-ah Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Take it you're on PS3 instead of 360 as you're just worried I'd give you a doing on UFC! I sold my PS3 when I buggered off for awhile last year, and just recently got another one. Very nearly got an X-box... I've still got a few old games, UFC 2009 [i think] being one of them. Might need to dig it out, I was pretty hopeless at it tbh, button bashing to the extreme! Link to comment

My mate is too good at it, masters submissions etc. He's goes online and plays against people that's bio says 'great ko's %, poor ground game' and let's them punch themselves out for two rounds, only throwing the odd punch himself and over clinching before throwing them down and locking in a submission in the third round. The amount of folk that turn it off mid submission is unreal. Really frustrating though. Link to comment

Quanny Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Finally got my email through on changing my password and the f**king site is down!! Well pissed! Link to comment
StandFree1982 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Playstation Store back up on the 24th of May! My PlayTV doesn't work anymore though, fairly pissed off about that as I had a heap of programs recorded that I now can't view. Anyone else got playTV and found any issues after ugrading to 3.61?

robbo Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 its all back up now. good luck getting on anytime soon though because half the world is trying to get on and download stuff. Link to comment

robbo Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 was apparently hacked again yesterday http://uk.ibtimes.com/articles/156879/20110603/sony-hack-lulzsec-security-psn-playstation-network-hackers-security-breach-3-4.htm The group cited its reason for the attack as to demonstrate the inherent weakness of Sony's security. In a subsequent release entitled "Sownage" the group wrote: "Our goal here is not to come across as master hackers, hence what we're about to reveal: SonyPictures.com was owned by a very simple SQL injection, one of the most primitive and common vulnerabilities, as we should all know by now. "From a single injection, we accessed EVERYTHING. Why do you put such faith in a company that allows itself to become open to these simple attacks?" The post continued, "What's worse is that every bit of data we took wasn't encrypted. Sony stored over 1,000,000 passwords of its customers in plaintext, which means it's just a matter of taking it. This is disgraceful and insecure: they were asking for it." Link to comment
