(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So as almost everyone knows the Playstation jailbreak has stirred up a lot with Sony and Mr. George Hotz. So my thought is why exactly is Sony so fired up about his? I mean GeoHot's CFW doesn't even allow you to pirate games really. All his CFW did in my opinion was open doors to other people to make homebrew apps for your PS3. In no way shape or form is it HIS fault. But regarding the piracy that other CFW's have it's not as easy as a rip and burn to your PS3 as some people seem to implement that it is. No random noob could necessarily just pirate a game to their PS3. I mean some games are this easy, but most involve reconfiguring a file in the game in order for the game to boot from the HDD.

Some may know and some may not, but Sony might be enabling a Killswitch to go off on Feb. 1st for anyone who was banned from playing Black Ops. My opinion is isn't that a little extreme for just making yourself 15th prestige and getting a whole bunch of guns. It really isn't that important. I mean Treyarch could just reset all of the accounts that are 15th. It's not that hard for them I would imagine.

If you would like to know more about the killswitch that might be implemented visit this thread. [Note: I did not make the thread nor do I take credit, just passing the information forward]

If this killswitch does go into effect I for one am probably going to switch to XBOX so I don't have to deal with all this nonsense that Sony has. It occurs to me that Microsoft doesn't care as much about their products after the user has bought it.

Post your comments below about whether or not you'll be switching to XBOX possibly if this is implemented, and any other possible things you may have to say.

One more thing, if you have a comments or questions about the KILLSWITCH PLEASE post it on the other thread as I did not post that thread first and any comments or questions should be posted in its respected place.


+rep if this was helpful! Thanks!

I didn't imply that I'm going to hack. I just wanted a legit way of playing and a console where if it is hacked the makers [Microsoft] don't really care /facepalm
