Nintendo are just as bad as the rest: at the moment, they're the underdogs, which gives them a lot more leeway and sympathy. Give it time: if they make any headway in the next round of the console wars, then they'll be back to their old selves...

Admittedly, Apple is probably the nastiest corporate entity around, but the "ooh shiny" field seems to protect them better than most.

Think Sony are suffering from some sort of compulsive lying syndrome

Phew, glad we got some Apple and Nintendo bashing in there. I was beginning to think we were all going mad.

I don't understand the Sony response. "We've sued the company and have taken them to the cleaners but they haven't paid yet, therefore it's not our fault". Am I reading it right? My head hurts a bit.

There's a guy on the work board who was trying to point out how fair Sony are to their employees and that they're very ethical for a large corporation.

Can't wait to retort tomorrow...

Isn't this the second time that lik-sang has 'closed' though?

I'm sure they shut down for a couple of weeks a while ago to make some sort of point after losing a different court case.
