Nah, also the best advice is not giving advice to the person who pretty much predicts the accurate outcome of this sort of situation.

Dude, I’m not your dude so don’t call me dude. Also no, you can :)

Games and DLC purchases revoked in some cases, banned from online use in most applications. Sony can remove features such as the ability to play games, via firmware as evident by the removal of OtherOS

No bricking is what Firmware 2.80 and 3.0 did on a huge scale to PS3s. Sony doesn’t brick things in the traditional sense of the word. They build walls up, made of layers of cinder blocks.

That your claim of “Sony doesn’t self destruct their consoles” is incredibly invalid. If your account was banned permanantly on one console, as well as that console banned from the network. Not only does that mean future and current consoles that use that account are banned, the consoles are also banned. Sony can…

For a console you claim as the end all be all of your online entertainment, it’s incredibly limiting. You can’t effectively use netflix on PS3 without being signed in to your account.

Then you’ll bitch because game licenses are tied to the console and a NNID. But you won’t bother to do any research on the matter you’ll just assume the former is the only option

.... again someone who doesn’t understand the financial repercussions of region locking... the hurdles are NOT hardware they are financial.

*sigh* But the market that purchases foreign games is incredibly insignificant.

Apple is not a system or a console or whatever gaming device. It’s philosophies are based on computers that aren’t region locked. The 360 WAS and STILL IS region locked. The shift to blu-ray is the entire reason why region-locking was put away with on PS3 and Xbox One. There is actual encryption methods on blu-ray…

Uh you never owned a PS3 it seems

You clearly never had a PS3 then

Sony did this with PS3s to an extent. Once your console is banned online it’s banned forever. If you use your account and email on a new PS3 that PS3 will be banned too.... Sony is significantly worse as they make the consoles and future consoles with that account unusable

Let’s say this, as I come from a family of mechanics in Ontario. You do not do this shit. In fact, this kid wouldn’t be able to sell that car with a safety in Ontario as it wouldn’t pass at all. Fake Safety’s are a thing but are often significantly more expensive and very few shops do them.

Happens a lot on Kickstarter. Heard they want to put something in place to prevent that basically meaning you donated 7K, you’re financially responsible for that 7k and you can’t back out.

He’s just a Nintendo hater that thinks his claims are solid and makes sense. A little whiteout makes them go away

This is the quote you should use

But Tina, to be classified as “cat lady” you have to be obsessed about cats... or have you not seen the one on The Simpsons?

Portal 2

But unlike Nintendo, Valve can’t count to 3
