Some of you folks may have noticed that Sony are trying an incentive to pull in more gamers to buy the Vita. What does this mean, really? Well they are doing this by offering $20 in PSN credit, 1,000 Sony Rewards points for convincing someone to buy a Vita. Game-Modo just don’t think this is the best idea.
Do you think this is the best way to get the PS Vita sold? Come check out what Game-Modo think.
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

Banks do it. It's cheap advertising. Sony has always relied mainly on word of mouth, this is just the first time they've paid people to do it. I do personally wish they'd use more tv advertising though. Maybe when they start turning a profit.
what if convinced somebody to do it last summer?
As per usual just because it's Sony this is being blown out of proportion. Their marketing for the Vita hasn't been all that great and when they do try to market it people complain.
Get your friend to buy a Vita and earn $20 to spend on PSN, how on earth has this been spinned into a negative thing.
Directv does it $100 for every member you refer. Stop acting like only sony does it
I read somewhere else that this is not a Sony campaign, at least not a direct one. Apparently its done by a company that's known for pyramid like programs. Seeing that you have to give them your psn id AND password, at least from what I've read, screams scam to me.
