The quote that's got people up in arms (PS3, Little Big Planet)

[darkpower]

I can see people overreacting from it, too.

Microsoft and Nintendo could in fact break anyone else's system with a faulty game or something like that.

You're NEVER truly anonymous on the internet because of IP Addresses. And if you agree to the EULA, then you're in fact telling them that you're alright with them collecting information to help them make sure everything is alright and no one is being abusive (especially with all these people screaming "child predator" to anyone that even TALKS to someone under 18). It's like if you agree to use Comcast's internet service, you agree to their TOSs and shit. It's nothing new, and people have been doing those things for years, it's just a new quote from someone who was yet to say anything about it yet, coming from a company that some people in the gaming media still loves to find ways to attack.

In fact, both Sony and Microsoft have done it accidentally. Maybe Nintendo, too. I think I've heard of such a thing, but I don't remember. However comma, there's a huge and marked difference between doing it accidentally, and saying that they could do it as a punishment.

As for the rest, you're talking about ToU versus something extremely severe. Plus, of course, the inane "any reason to attack Sony" line....

That's been the accusation of some people recently. Kotaku did try to find anything they could to slam Hideo Kojima, some would say because they don't want the PS3 getting popular and MGS4 was going to be a huge game that moved consoles. Not my accuation, though I can't help but agree with it at some points (GameDaily has been more than ridiculed for their bias, and GameDaily doesn't seem to want to hide it. Read up on the controversy around Chris Buffa's MGS4 review and his thoughts on LBP, as well as calling the 360 "the best console of all time", to know what I'm talking about at least with THAT one).

But then again, I can see you possibly trying to make a model of what your cock looks like and then submitting it as a level. THAT would want ME to brick your system.

I like the "some people" claims, as though random shmucks in tinfoil hats is in any way meaningful.

I also love how the guy who's complaining about my unfair treatment of him making specific statements of a hostile nature. It's just so funny. "You're a dick. You're a faggot. I wish you'd die. What? Red Rep? WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU BAWWWWWWWWWW!!!"

Well:

1. I fail to see how the behavior I had toward that other thread has anything to do with THIS thread and any POINT that THIS thread has made. Oh wait, you have nothing to counter my points, but you want to be right, so attack the character if you can't attack the points.
2. My God, DO SOME FUCKING RESEARCH!! Instead of bitching about how everything is "irrelevant" to the point and constantly neg repping your targets (since you brought that neg repping up here), actually find some of these and read what you find. Or are you so afraid that the stuff you will read will hurt your tunnel vision of thinking so you do what you can to call it "irrelevant"?
3. We can, based on this thread, accuse you of being a huge 360 Xbot that is pretending he isn't, since you've really had nothing positive to say about the PS3 (or the Wii) since it came out, and you're amplyfying this quote as saying that it got "people up in arms", yet no one really sees it as an issue. We may be wrong on that accusation, but then again, that's how you're acting. You're bringing up the "some people say" thing I did as if I was the only one to do it (you did it in your original post) and you're bitching about me complaining about consperiacies and tinfoil hats when you're in here whining that "OMG, THEY MAY BRICK MY PS3" like they are just bricking them to piss people off (which I must ask again: What kind of thing are you going to do to cause them to have the need to do that to your system, since your so worried about it?).

1. The very fact that you're making attacks at the same time you're whining elsewhere is probably more relevant to the other thread, but it's funny as fuck because it shows something about you.
2. Coming from the guy who said only three people on the internet have brought it up. I'm guessing your research consisted of www.stuffipulledoutofmyass.com
3. I'm not even talking about my console. Again, you have to make stuff up. It sounds like you're trying to make more out of it than me, which is interesting, since you're foaming at the mouth asking what I have to hide and why I'm worried about them bricking me. I mean, "Seriously doubt it's gonna be an issue, but people seem to have picked up on the "bricking" portion. Still, might have been dumb to open that box, whether they're using it or not." Yeah. Better rush me over to the fainting couch.
