The law doesn't hold the ground it does in real life when concerning the internet because of so many variables. Like with the downloading music issue. Illegal in a lot of countries, but not here. Hard for laws to hold on a medium that is worldwide, you know? Also, money always returns to a physical product at some point. It starts real, and stays real thanks to an economy where money is constantly in circulation.

which is why Sony's attempting to go after GeoHotz — because their gigantic legal team has told them that they don't have a legal leg to stand on.

not anymore. maybe in the past, but nowadays thanks to debit/check-cards, online payments, and direct deposit, it's all numbers on screens for the most part. it can take physical form, but that doesn't mean it always does, just like the software those hackers are downloading could be granted physical form (as a disc or pre-release review copy) but in practice often aren't.

Portal 2 local co-op and Nintendo (of course). I feel bad for everyone who rushed out to get the Portal 2 at launch hoping to play online with a friend. Even people with PC friends they could play with can't take advantage of the free steam copy, since it had to sync with PSN. At least there's single player.

,or Movemodo reviews that went through the Single Player Campaign(s) and then didn't even get to try multiplayer, and now can't write the review?

I got it at launch and was able to complete the co-op online.
Also you don't need to sync steam with PSn to get the free copy, they just gave you a code to imput.

Yeah you do. You can't play validate the steam version til you've connected to PSN while playing Portal 2 on PS3. If you try, Steam tells you basically what I just did and makes you input your code again. I've just been local co-opping with a buddy in the building and that's working rather well.

@losangelo/tokengirl you do indeed need to sync in order for it to work. Luckily I already synced my copy before the PSN went down and i just finished the SP which was AWESOME, so now im gonna play co-op on the PC

@Mickeymac... hey man, I sent you a Invite on the 360 today, my Gamertag is SlappyBoy82. (yeah I know, wrong thread Lol).
So, after spending all loads of time on the Live Marketplace, there is this awesome little game that is Free called Crash Course (thanks Wolf for directing me to it). But, PSN really needs something like this on it. It's a 2D Platformer that uses the users Avatars, and is basically a bragging rights game to compete for the best stage times. It's sponsored by Doritos, and hopefully at some point PSN will land a title such as this.
