Re: Playstation Network Down!
You can hack to burn n cheat on either and be banned on either as well. You just have to wait a couple days sometimes for new version to be released after system updates.

I've always been for the online gaming experience on either system. PS3 is for me. This is just one thing we have to deal with for free online gaming. This **** happens.

As long as online play stays free I can stand some down time even though it's frustrating.

Just heard on the news that Sony announced that credit card information may have been taken in this attack.

"While there is no evidence at this time that credit card data was taken," writes Seybold, "we cannot rule out the possibility."

"If you have provided your credit card data through PlayStation Network or Qriocity, out of an abundance of caution we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained," Seybold continues.

Sony is encouraging users to be especially aware of potential phishing scams from people using email, phone calls and mail to try and extract more personal or sensitive information from you. Sony also is strongly recommending that you change you password once you're able to log back into the Playstation Network.

If CC information was indeed compromised, then yes.

Well their creed is:

Knowledge is Free.
We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not Forgive.
We do on Forget.

So I guess they think the knowledge of Sony user's CC #s should be known to everyone as well. "Yeah, we're takin' on the corporations!.......Oh, and we're also stealing CC #'s from the little people."

Re: Playstation Network Down!
I was kind of wondering how someone went on an online shopping spree at Bed Bath & Beyond with my card. I've gotten all the money back and a new card issued, but now I wonder if it was connected to this.

According to them it was between the 17th and 19th when it was compromised. This is the 2nd time in a month this has happened to me. Early in April the same thing happened to Best Buy rewards program, though just had like e-mail info and probably my general personal info.

And a year of credit monitoring for your trouble.
