Sony's Anger Towards Speedy1961

Listening to CAGcast (I am a regular listener) and can't help but point out Sony is up to its old ways again. Sony always puts restrictions on their products such as no VCD playing when they released their DVD players. That's just one sample. I have more in mind but I won't get into it.

The Circuit City's subpoena towards CheapAssGamer to release any information about Speedy1961 was really provoked by Sony threatening Circuit City to revoke them from future plannings of Sony Entertainment of America. It seems that Sony wanted him fired from where he worked so that's what they did. This is all because of the early ad scan that came out a week before the announcement. The employee from Circuit City scanned it and sent it to Joystiq.com and was caught and was fired. He had to make an apology letter to Sony and after had him fired.

Why is Sony so pissed? Maybe because 1 week of sales just went down waiting for the price drop. Kinda like a "buy! buy! ops its cheaper now but too bad you bought one already!" kind of situation.

Sony is really messing up this time around. They better fix their attitude before everyone starts to just reject them.

Check out www.lik-sang.com and see what they did to them. Lik-sang was a cool company selling video games to anyone that wants it. This happened just before the PS3 release. (I was ordering my PS3 there) This is another doing of Sony. I guess they get a kick out of pissing off gamers.
