Geohot Battles Back Against Sony
csaw.csaw writes "According to Ars Technica, 'Hotz is slamming Sony's arguments at every turn. Sony claims there is a PSN account that Hotz created? Well, the serial number is wrong and anyone could have made that account. The manuals contained information on how SCEA is located in California? The manuals were never opened.' Groklaw posted the latest court filing (PDF) as well as their own analysis, saying, 'All the over-the-top allegations, in short, that some journalists published last week after reading SCEA's filing are now answered ably, about blickmaniac, the Playstation Network, the California downloads, the serial number, SCEA's jurisdictional arguments, everything. I confess, this is getting exciting.'"
This guy is an idiot, oh, sure he's smart to crack the PS3, and so on, but lacks the street smarts to know that you play with fire you can get burned. Weather he wins or loses it's a moot point, he'll be up to his eyeballs in debt when this is over.
Sony is evil? No fucking way, they provide a service, a network where anyone can play without cheats and hacks equal for everyone. You get satisfaction from the games you bought. The others? Not so much. You can only play with trusted friends if you want a fair game, AND you get to pay for that privilege.
You say that MS is not evil ... how the hell do you think they managed to keep so many for their consoles only? By playing nice?
Kinekt? What the hell is that? Other than the funny videos, I haven't seen any practical uses for it. Have you tried using it for 15 minutes? No? Then I won't bother to ask if you use if to a couple of hours straight each day.
