PSN Compromised (Euro Hack)

[Tyrath]

I think you get to keep the things you buy with PSN+ discount? Either way, I don't care too much about the free month because it doesnt seem that great.

[Devolver]

Honestly, I don't mind that people w/o PS+ is getting a free month + 'content' (game, or w/e). But how does that make sense to give people that already have PS+ the same thing as people who isn't paying for anything in the first place? I would imagine a company would want to compensate the people putting money into the service in a more unique way, instead of a sweeping generalization for everyone.

Is PSN back up? I noticed last night you didn't get the "under maintenance" message and it instead tried to log you in and just failed.

and this may be old news for most, but I realized yesterday that what you buy (for free or w/e) under PSN+ only is active while your subscribed (aka: you lose everything you purchased / demo'd when your sub ends). So how is getting one month free a deal and an appreciation or w/e to customers? Sounds like a bloated way to give everyone a free preview of the service, of which you know will lead to more PSN+ users at the end. Sounds like a way for them to line their pockets in the wake of such a disaster

I'm still getting the maintenance message.

Let alone the fact it equals out to less than $5 worth of 'compensation'.

I heard they'll probably do a game or game credit as well.

I'm not holding my breath though.

I heard the opposite from an IGN article.

I understand giving everyone like 5-10$ PSN credit is a huge deal and would impact Sony more then just giving everyone a month free of their "own" service (which means it's costing them very little). I am just disappointed to hear that what you buy / demo under PSN+ is only active while you have a sub.

[Peacemillian]

You get to keep what you buy with PSN+ as long as you BUY it, the free games and content they give out you do not get to keep.

[Pyro]

Sony said a while back, when they first came out with the service, that anything you purchase you get to keep as soon as your subscription runs out.

EDIT: Any DLC or addons you buy you keep.

Haven't been keeping up with this much, but am I correct when I read only Debit/credit cards #'s were stolen from non-US countries?

Thanks

IIRC, that only applies to the security breach at SOE. PS3 users from all regions were effected/compromised.

[Souj]

yeah, all PSN accounts were compromised, but they were saying there was 0 proof CC#s were taken.
for SOE account owners, CC info may have been taken, but only European countries have to worry about that, and they said only info from 2007 was "compromised", meaning for alot of people, that info is no longer relevant at all anymore. Apparently the hackers just got access to one of their old back-up units.

I walked into Gamestop this morning. First thing the kid at the counter asked me was "Please don't tell me you're trading one in too.". I just laughed and walked 360* back out the door.
