So I may not be buying that PS2 Linux kit, because Sony are CUNTS and will not take my credit card information. I tried my Debit card (also a Mastercard) and my "real" CC, a Visa. I even went through that Verified by Visa shit, and STILL, STILL they tell me to pound sand. What a load of asschowder.

TEH LOGISTICS ARE SIMPLE SONY, I GIVES YOU MONEYS, YOU GIVES ME TOYS. THERE IS NO "FUCK YOU" STEP.


Bitches.


Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that every single place on the "Buy it from here" page carries everything BUT what I'm looking for. So storeus.playstation.com is THE ONLY SUPPLIER LISTED THAT CARRIES IT! And they won't give it to me!

Double bitches.

As time stretches on here at OSY Extreme, everyone will eventually have quotes in their sig from the other members.

I find it odd that a Sony web site wouldn't want your money. Everytime I step into a Sony Store (TM) the salesman start drooling on me, and one time I touched my wallet and I think one of them had an orgasm.

I went to the store with the second biggest selection on earth (ebay. Wink ) and got one with shipping, $9 less than Sony's price without shipping. Now, unless I am fucked and have to go to jail for killing someone, I am Victorious.

(The only one on all of ebay and half.com! That I don't care so much for.)

HAHA!


I'm in two sigs now! I am elated. Very Happy

Maybe you should e-mail a link for this thread to Sony's Customer Support department. If they see that they're getting trashed, perhaps they'll get off their asses and do something about it.

Two things:

One, I doubt they care about a site as small as this, even if the information does spread like an infectious virus that's really gross and spreads out really wide.

2, They probly aren't that worried about selling the PS2 kits in particular, and know that unless there is footage of them grinding up babies for use in the PS3 they'll always sell a hojillion of whatever the fuck they make.

They did finally reply to my somewhat pissy complaint. They couldn't call me right away (I'm at work, I guess I'm not answering my phone at home!) so they canceled it immediately.

It's so secure that I can hardly buy it. Rolling Eyes

Considering that the majority of North American consumers lap up anything that Sony makes, I doubt this would be much concern to them.

Having said that, I generally like Sony stuff too. I'm only human. Very Happy

Last year Sony Europe with HQ in NL got one of them sobig virii, or whatever.

As a result noone could order stuff in all of europe because it was all centrally managed. Took them a week or so to sort out...

In light of Sony's recent DRM-infested CD scandal, this quote is especially poignant and this thread gets revived for no good reason.

I had rather forgotten about this thread.

Also, due to the inconvenience of not having a network connection in the game room, and Not Liking TV resolutions for XFree, I really haven't used the damn thing much.

Also, the dumbass I bought it from didn't have the instruction manual, nor the original mouse. What a tool.

Sony is a VD-riddled crack whore that is no longer allowed in our home. Hasn't been permitted for a couple years.

Anyone want a POS sony minidisc player cheap?

I have BETTER. (It does pictures, and doesn't do that proprietary shit smoking.)

The Linux kit probably has some DRM in it in anyway. Oh and I got myself an XBOX 360 yesterday. It was only a core system but I'll take what I can get. Walmart was having a new years sale and at noon yesterday I walk into one to get a new alarm clock and casually ask the clerk, "Do you have any XBOX 360s left?"

I didn't expect her to say yes. I hadn't thought it through that far. She said yes. I decided that I must buy. It is so cool.

What is not cool is the ASS RAPING you get with a core system. It is $299 while the premium is $399. The premium comes with an XBOX Live gold kit, wireless controller, remote controller and HD and the core does not. Buying these accessorcies alone for the core will put your cost around $499....

Anyway the last thing I need to buy is the wireless network adapter, the remote control and an XBOX live sub. My wife will kill me when I tell her I just spent $200 more dollars on the stupid thing though Smile
