PS3 Vulnerability and Network Hack

[ware4me]

It appears there were a few worms on some PS3s… Sony officially apologized for some weaknesses found on their PSN system… Apparently hackers discovered a way of accessing some PSN accounts, changed their passwords, and used their credit…

Fortunately hackers can't access credit card information or use Visa cards... A patch closing this exploit should be released soon.

Just in case make sure you can access your PSN account and no one changed your password. More at: JP Playstation.com (http://www.jp.playstation.com/info/support/sp_20080327_psn.html)

Once again, Sony shot themselves in the foot...

...technically at this point in time, they're only
walking on stubbed legs...so in this case, Sony
only has 1 leg left...

They should get it over with and shoot themselves
in the head.

HAHA, I don't think they did it on purpose, and it is rare to see the lack of planning on this kind of devices. >.<

its a little sad really, cause its such a nice looking machine and heavy i might add, still glad i dont have one at the moment.

Well, the only good thing about the one my friend has
is that he bought the one with the blu-ray DVD reader.
And since that won out that war, it has 5&#37; merit (instead
of 1%).

So if he gets bored of playing the 2 good games for it,
he can use it as a High-Def (no advantage with the audio
integration since I haven't set that up for him yet) to
play some movies on the plasma.

It really sad that the only thing that PS3 is good for is playing Blu-ray movies >.>
