“Bad times don’t last, but bad guys do”

It’s very strange to me that Xbox decided to give everyone at their live show a free collectors edition Series X. Almost everybody there was by invite and was already a “influencer” for the brand they had been previously wined and dined as well as getting their photos with Asha yesterday.

Surely this damages public perception even further towards the notion that Xbox foster’s the parasocial relationship with its fans.

Seeing the usual suspects all pop up on the timeline celebrating exclusivity after spending the last 2 years claiming they were a thing of the past?

It’s all very odd to me.

inFamous 2 is so old that the $5 footlong from Subway was still a thing

@InfamousLiberal @longislandviper @DestinLegarie Definitely not ignoring that, quite possibly the worst decision Sony has ever made. Where did I say I was ignoring that?

@InfamousLiberal @longislandviper @DestinLegarie If it hasn’t failed then Phil would still be around, if it hasn’t failed they wouldn’t be rethinking their entire brand.

How hasn’t @EA released the complete edition of the original @TheSims on console yet?

[Radec @realradec]

this is actually insane and Sony absolutely needs to address and fix this ASAP

I'll go with probably the most interesting part next. With the permission of my sister (and with her literally sitting in the room with me) I was able to breach her PSN account, change the email address and password, and take full control of it simply by contacting Sony support.

Obviously I'm not going to publicly say exactly how I did this, but one of the pieces of information I needed was some details of a recent purchase on the account (support chat image shared below). To do this was worryingly easy and it took very little time.

Once I got through to a human on the support chat it took around 30 minutes, and I did not need her PSN password, card details, or any specific private information.

I've shared all of the evidence with a few people in the know, and if they want to vouch for the authenticity under this post they are welcome to (but I won't tag them).

@Sony needs to make immediate changes that not only secure people's accounts, but give those who have lost access a reliable and fast way to get them back. That last part is important — currently those who breach accounts have a method of getting them banned over and over again once returned to the owner, using this to hold the account to ransom against the original owner.

@longislandviper Can’t wait to hear all about it Friday. Thanks for advocating for others as well.
