Anon: Sony attacks dropped, PSN users were “butthurt”

A VG247 interview has confirmed that Anonymous has dropped action against Sony, as well as branding PSN users “selfish” and “butthurt” over their anger at the service’s recent outage.

Thats good to hear but I don't think Anon is the problem anymore, its more that Lulzsec (of whatever they are called) who are attacking game companies who have done nothing.

Jamaicangmr4709d ago

Don't understand why you got so many disagrees 16 to 4 agrees to be exact. Did i miss something are we now majority in support of these types of hackers? you didnt say anything in defense of a particular brand or anything that usually generates automatic disagrees.

I'm confused just wish atleast one of these cowards would man up and say what they disagree with. However this is n4g and logic rarely shows its face on this site.

@ Zir0
For the record i agree.

Rettom4709d ago

I would usually man up, but I don't really disagree with anyone on a major thing, cuz I'm never given the chance ;)

But yeah, Anonymous is dead... (I hope)

sdtarm4709d ago

the problem is not any determined group, the problem are the hackers

WhittO4709d ago (Edited 4709d ago )

Attacks have been "dropped"...more like failed.

I'm sure they tried everything they could think of to hack their way in/bring servers down again, glad they are the ones walking away "butt hurt".
Looks like the money Sony spent in re-fortifying PSN has paid off in terms of increased security.

Sony seem to be having some success at already catching some hackers related to Anon too lol, only a matter of time!

(Also, why exactly wouldn't we be angry at a bunch of D*CKHEADS hacking into a system to STEAL ALL OUR INFO & CREDIT CARD DETAILS and bring down the PSN - which millions use for over 3 WEEKS!?!?)

b_one4709d ago

Mainly, Media are problem - they wont stop writing about them... im thinking, they (lulzsec) need for cash is astronomical, those phone operations, equipment, servers etc cost money... attackin CIA FBI....balls of steel strange.

Ironic that they'll be the ones who are "butthurt" once they end up in prison.

We're "butthurt" and selfish cause we wanted to play with our friends online? We're "butt hurt" cause we wanted to buy games over the network and enjoy whatever free time we have with friends and family (at least for me) who are miles away? Please, cry me a river.

For your cause, you ruin the enjoyment of millions (if it was you in the first place). What you guys did was selfish and now you're acting "butt-hurt" over it.

thereapersson4709d ago

It's just reverse-trolling / reverse-butthurt. They're projecting their frustration over the fact that life was normal and routine for millions of PSN users before all this bullsh!t started happening. The intervention of ANYONE was not only not necessary, but not warranted.

theIMP4709d ago

LOL, reverse-butthurt. Thats funny.

M-A-R-S-H-A-L-L4709d ago

Pretty much reaper. It's really pathetic how they're placing the blame on gamers. So much for fighting for the rights of gamers, lol.

rabidpancakeburglar4709d ago

Don't forget, they also said not long before PSN was hacked that they wouldn't go after PSN. The butthurtitude is completely justified.

THC CELL4709d ago

Why dont they come forward and we will show them how we really feel, and its fucking them who was butt hurt. Dont thank them for fuck all they are shit heads who should be jailed for attacking the gaming world.

LightofDarkness4709d ago

Can we all stop saying butthurt? It's asinine.

earbus4709d ago (Edited 4709d ago )

Ha ha classic,and you believe them go hackers,lol reaper reverse butt hurt lmao block and counter.

This game deserves a remaster for current consoles. It was awesome on PS3.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv724d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii4d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast4d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM4d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife3d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit3d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife3d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
