They have service agreements with the publishers to ensure their console stays more or less hackproof, and do this by funnel online traffic via the PSN service. This ensure they keep their end of the bargain up, and the publishers do not have to be concerned about cheat checking within their code, since its outsourced to $ony.
However, since people with Egos bragged about it on live TV, this service agreement probably have a penalty clause, which mean the crab needs to cough up to the publishers, so its hurting their pockets. In my view if this stayed low key, mr geo didnt draw attention to it, he never would have been dragged to court.
Hi okay well your contribution is well excepted and thank you
but this is just what my friend explained to me he is doing a programming course so i took it from him this was how it worked.
Thanks and regards
