Anonymous have hacked PSN due to Sony having a few law suits against piracy. Hence Sony are trying to fix PSN from the hackers.

No one knows who has done it. Anonymous have denied it. Not sure what you can gain by posting blatant lies.

Anyway, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

p.s. XBOX Live has hardly been offline or "down" from the day it was started, and is still going strong. 8)

In Big W the other day they had a pile of Guitar Hero III packs (guitar + game + big box). They were all $68 and for XBox - except for the one for PS3 for $10!. I decided not to buy it as I already have a wii guitar and am trying to reduce clutter not add to it. But an Asian couple saw the glimmer in my eye and pounced as soon as I left the scene - at the counter they were holding it up in the air like it was a trophy! Hope they enjoyed it :)

MGS4, beaten the game numerous times and I can't get sick of it......true gaming masterpiece. Stalled at the moment, trying to get a No kill run.

Blatant lies? Blanant lies is the news release that anonymous have sent out. Anonymous are scared because PSN have been down for so long, they are worried they are being tracked and traced. Hence the comment that it might be a splinter group acting on their own accord.

But hey, you are a troll obviously who sucks your 360 off.

Buy the console that most of your (or the kids) friends have......if their all playing GT5, FIFA11, AFL, Call of Duty on PS3 then get a PS3 and join in, if they predominantly have XBOXs then go out and buy an XBOX and join in.........it's not much fun being tho odd one out......

Latest reports are there is no external interference. Seems Sony are trying to lay blame elsewhere for there own shoddy network. Can't wait for the class action suits to start in the USA. Getting close to a week since the PSN went down. Xbox live got sued when it went down for 24hrs.

Luckily I only use my PS3 for PlayTV, which is an average digital tuner at best. The system would of been long gone if my missus didn't want it for the dodgy HDTV. Next TV upgrade and it will be gone.

So what's your experience with a XBOX 360 Westsider? I'm guessing very very limited as is the case with all PS3 fanboys. I have had both since launch, and still do.

Hope you have enjoyed your "next gen" console over the long, long weekend. ;)

No idea why people fight about which console is the best. You either play PS3 or XBox. Big deal.
