So, what we're saying with the above is that all the manufacturers apart from Snoy are about vacant tarts?

Hell, I can live with SCEE being in league with the devil himself as long as they are kicking Paris Hilton in the cunt.

No, one really can't bash Microsoft in this thread. See, they suck at innovating. They just copy someone else's idea and throw money at the problem until it disappears. Anything evil that MS does in the console realm is really just Sony evil + a billion dollars, see?

Ah, a thread about console manufacturers generally being cunts and shutting down import shops for no good reason except they don't like them. But, y'know, it wouldn't be complete unless someone got a dig in at the only company who hasn't actually done this yet...

My comment was in response to Mightyzim's post on the last page, and I thought it was rather obviously tongue-in-cheek. And no, Microsoft hasn't done anything this cuntish, at least not in the console world. No need to be an ass about it, man.

Lik-Sang Responds to Sony's 'Sour Grapes' Comment

http://biz.gamedaily.com/industry/feature/?id=14232

After the closure of import video games retailer Lik-Sang.com, Sony responded by claiming that they were not responsible for Lik-Sang's going out of business. In fact, Sony labeled Lik-Sang's comments as "sour grapes."

Today Lik-Sang's former marketing manager Pascal Clarysse struck back at Sony, stating that Sony's denial "must probably be cynical sarcasm on their behalf," and that "Sony's claim that Lik-Sang didn't turn up and therefore incurred no legal cost is absolute nonsense."

Below you will find the full statement, which Clarysse said would be his final words for the retailer because the company is now terminating his contract.
