So the PlayStation Network has been down for a few weeks now as a result of an attack from hackers, and millions of people around the world now live with the fear of credit card fraud and identity theft. While Sony and various authorities around the world have been working hard (presumably) at trying to find out how this happened and who is responsible, we, the gamers, have found ourselves unable to connect ever since.
My question is this:
Disregarding the whole credit/identity theft fiasco, how have you been affected (if at all) by the PSN being down?
Have you been crying in a corner, craddling your PS controller while reminiscing about the "good ol' days" when you could play online shooters and buy DLCs? Has the addiction won out and forced you to convert to Xbox360 to get your dayly fix of online gaming? Did you go "Meh, whatever" and decide to dedicate that free time to something else? Or are you one of those poor unfortunate souls that don't have the pleasure of owning a PS3, and therefore are not at all affected by this? (and if that's the case, why did you even click on this topic to begin with?...)
Personally, I've always been the type of gamer who prefers a good single-player campaign over online gameplay any day, so I'm doing pretty good. I do miss the PS store though...
Time to share, my pretties!!
