Who gives a fuck! Give me the last gaurdian and agent sony! Oh yeah big rumor going on that sony and rockstar going to be showing agent at e3 with gameplay trailer^^
I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure I paid taxes on this? will I get the money back with tax? I've got 1.49 stuck on my account and I could really care less about paying for 3 avatars.
I spend a fucktonne through psn, is this a global thing? Or will the eu psn be handled by sony network entertainment America too?
......... I should really stop reading these "agreements"
Seriously add the condition "your soul" to essentially any TOS or EULA at and they would make the devil blush.

Oh? Maybe this means us in America will see new stuff in the store more than once a week. I belive Japan get new stuff whenever, right?
By refunded do they mean everything I bought until now, or only what I have in my wallet? Because I cant play fatal fury or bionic commando 2 without a psn connection. And , in either case, refunded to WHERE? I bought all the stuff with psn cards!
I really despise Sony and their bad usage of days.
Last time April 1st other os was taken by a fake sounding firmware 3.21
I wish they'd just choose April second so people never questioned the validity of official sony biz.
*granted I know people received emails of both said updates and Sony did post on their blog aswell, still just wish they didn't use April 1st of all days.

The Store could be better. A lot of "buttons" don't click and its formatted 4:3, so maybe SNEA will revamp the whole thing. The sorting functions could be better. Too many redundancies and unnecessary clicking to get where you're going, plus recommendations suck.
So, what about our download history? Like, if I want to redownload deleted games... that'll transfer too, right?
i got this in an email this morning and since it told me i had to enter my username and password, i wrote it off as an email trying to steal my password
Wait, does this means we europeans will have to abide to american law now?
Someone help me out here.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the previously announced cross-platform PlayStation Suite software to mesh the PS3 with upcoming Sony products like the,NGP,Xperia,Tablet,etc?
You can't, or are not suppoed to, prank people ahead of April 1st....
I would assume this is REAL but really, who the hell cares. I will hit accept and live on with my life.
I also kind of agree with J03yyz as I recieved the email as well and it looks really poor to come from Sony.

I would like to know how the refund would work. There's some games I wouldn't mind getting a refund for, though I've purchased all my games with PSN cards. Anyone know?
Wait, this was real? I didn't trust the e-mail that got sent to me because it was from some shady address and it said April 1. >_>
i love how those new terms state clearly that
a) Sony can brick completely your console with no reason what-so-ever,
and
b) while users have ridiculously long list of dos & don'ts(mostly don'ts), it is clearly stated in the last paragraph that all gamers can suck Sonys dick since they clearly can't do anything(,
it's wrong on so many levels. it just boggles my mind that Sony actually was able to make both warranty and any liability completely irrelevant.

They REALLY needed to issue a press release assuring gamers nothing will change for the worse. Since they haven't done that, I'm SCARED for my Plus plan, scared about losing PSN's rather excellent DRM implementation, etc.
sofik88 nailed it.
They have worked in terms which claim to grant them the right to temporarily or permenantly disable your hardware and remove all of your paid content.
That's not just unethical boys and girls, that's illegal.

ElektroDragon,
you better read those terms since from April 1st you won't own your ps3 anymore and if sony will fuck up your ps3(firmware updates 1000s other problems caused by Sony) you won't be able to do anything. you can't even do anything agains hackers aside from reporting them(so basically gamers can't demand additional patches to fix online).
if gamers again won't stand up against sony this time(like in the past few weeks when they constantly were breaking consumer rights) it will be pretty much over. those terms even state that you can't do shit when you still have warranty! WTF?!

I dunno... I fail to see the problem.. Just like any other network connected system,If you don't do anything illegal or stupid you don't have anything to worry about.
Hell if it keeps the hackers and stupid people off of PSN I'm all for it LOL

Also, for the people who can't read, this is solely for ONLINE ACTIVITES. Sony is not going to make your PS3 unable for use for violating the terms of service. They will make sure you're unable to USE ONLINE if you violate the terms of service for ONLINE though. So much misreading and wrong information going on the comments.
This is probably a way to weed out hacked consoles.
From what I hear it's easy for hacked PS3's to get free downloads from the PSN store under it's current setup.
3.6 has been hacked already but it's not to the extent earlier versions were. They may even drop a new FW before you accept the terms to make sure your PS3 is legit.

@Malik,
nope those terms clearly state that Sony can disable BOTH software(psn) and HARDWARE(ps3) whenever they want. not to mention you either agree to those terms or your account is deleted.

@ sofik
After actually bothering to read that I confirmed on top of being a troll you are apparently illiterate as well, no where in there does it say any of that.
There just re inforcing the basic rules, don't act like a jackass online or hack anything and its all good.
Even the they just terminate you from the psn. There isn't a killswitch that destroys your hardware.

@Black Nexus
"permanent or temporary disablement of any system or device through which you receive Sony Online Services"
That not only covers hardware, it covers non-PS3 hardware.

OH NOES! IF I HACK MY SYSTEM (which I won't) OR DO SOMETHING ILLEGAL (which I won't) THEN I MIGHT NOT GET TO PLAY MY PS3!!
Those BASTARDS! What do they think they're doing by not affecting me in any way?!
This really isn't any different from any other ToS agreement in the long run. Hackers gonna hack, and normal players gonna play.
The world keeps on spinning.

@Malik but some copy-protected games only work if you are ONLINE, if you are not ONLINE the drm kicks in and tells you that you have to be ONLINE to even boot the game.
Also, ONLINE

There is no way to remotely brick hardware in your ps3 people. Short of an electrical surge, emp, or a tiny bomb being hidden in the PS3 all these years that has gone un-noticed the worst they can do is what Microsoft does, which is brick the software.
I can't wait to read the EULA on thhat one! I bet PSN/SNEA is gonna try to sneak in all types of clauses pertaining to homebrew/cfw
1 April is the start of the financial year, that's why that date is set for the transfer, this is quite legit. Didn't even associate it with April fool's day till I read the comments here...
I don't know whether this is a good thing or not. I often hear Sony's various departments do not work together as well as they should. That's why you end up with fucking stupid ideas like the Playstation Phone.
I want PSN to service my PS3 and PSP, and to be as dedicated for those platforms as it can be. I don't want my PS3 and PSP getting a worse or more expensive service as SNEA makes changes to the business, because they want to roll PSN out on Bravias and telephones...
