PSN Forum Re-Opening Shows Members Are Divided About Their View Of Sony
Example of some differences of opinion:
Member:
PSN,
I am one of the more devoted PSN fans, I am quite apalled at the way some of members have acted in the past three weeks, since you have lost services. I read many of the comments left, and if I am to be ashamed it would be that I am part of a network where the users seem so ungrateful, and I would like to say thank you all at PSN, for continuing your quest to bring us an even better and stronger network. I don't really care about the free package, all I want is to be able to use my codes that I recieved with my purchase of Mortal Kombat, as well as my other titles, and again I want to say thanks to all of you at PSN and Qriocity keep up the excellent work.

i agree. it sucked not being able to play. but it is a privledge not a law that we are allowed to play. so if there is a problem as there was then we should be thankful it got fixed so we can continue to play. just my two cents.
Member:
I couldn't disagree more. I thought this was a joke. You are thanking Sony? You think it was down for 3 weeks? It was down for six weeks and it's down right now. It was up for almost a day but I can't log-in right now.
A small group of 7th to 10th graders attacked Sony and even warned them ahead of time and Sony still couldn't stop them. Once it was hacked, they didn't know what to do. They lied to us until they realized they couldn't hide or deny it anymore and THEN said, 'Oh, by they way, your personal information was compromised and is in the hand of criminals and we knew that for over a week now.'
Yeah, gaming is a right...because we paid for it. We paid over $300 for a PS3, an extra $80 for an HDMI cable and controller, remote, etc. and $60 a game. I have 51 games. That's $3,060 in games. This is my 2nd PS3 because the 1st one was bricked and I have had to buy 4 controllers now. That's over $4,000 after tax I have paid to play and you guys think that it's a privilege and we should be grateful? I'm guessing your parents pay for your games.
This is the largest breach of security in history and you are thanking Sony. That's insane.
I haven't been whining and complaining at all but to come out and thank Sony when we can't even log-on right now just nuts.
