As Sony starts to relaunch its PlayStation Network service around the world, one country is conspicuous in its absence: Japan.

Speaking to Dow Jones Newswires yesterday, a Japanese government official said the country has not yet allowed Sony to launch PlayStation Network within its borders because of concerns over the security of the service.

-Added the "IMO" because I remember agreeing to disagree w/ you about a certain set of cheap court tactics on Sony's part Winky Winky hehe


Am half willing to say i agree to a point
No company deserves this unless they do something crazy which damages the world. E.g. blows something up due cost cutting.

Only agree they earned this after how they decided to treat their customers the core gamer which from this welcome back pack gets nothing.
The court stuff all companies do may be cheap but it protecting their work. Saying that i think it time for a more open source future within reason.
