It was a nice save on his part. The customer service chick was egregiously bad. You could tell just by reading the transcript that she was either dicking around on her computer or talking to someone while I was sitting there twiddling my thumbs. I told him I was almost insulted and that I'd had playstation systems since PS1.

Helped that I was nothing but cordial in the chat and to the manager. He was probably just grateful for that since I'm sure most of the time when someone asks for a manager they're fuming :lol:


I've always found that you get more results when you keep a cordial tone in that kind of situations. Something similar happened to me like 4 years ago with my xbox 360.

My HDD had stopped working for some reason (it was 20 GB) and I sent it to microsoft for replacement. 1 month later I still hadn't received my new HDD so I called them and they told me it had somehow been ''lost in their systems''. I wasn't too happy about that but simply asked to speak to a manager to explain the situation.
He gave me a 1 year free xbox live subscription card that I received with my new HDD and the new HDD was 120 GB one insted of 20 GB. Needless to say, I didn't care much about that 1 month wait.

On a side note, I'm currently formatting my laptop. It's taking so long :/


Dude, I know that feel.


I usually just go to get food or something then come back later.

Long story. Basically my PS3 activated itself 4 times then deactivated itself. I couldn't play any games with it inactive but you can only have 2 at a time, I still "had" 3.

Go on chat support, the chick is clearly doing something else while chatting. She takes an average of a minute to respond to me. When she said she was accessing my account, it took so long that I had to ask her if she was still there. To which she replied "We can't help you, you can only deactivate once every 6 months. Please try then." Then posted a survey link and ended chat.

So I called support on the phone, immediately demanded a manager, told him what had happened. He got my PS3 activated, then asked me to send him the text transcript of the chat. I did, he apologized and told me to tell him two games of any price on the PS store that I wanted, and he gave me codes.


Any two games and you picked little big planet?! Lol

Just picked up Dying Light. Will give it a go tomorrow

2 work laptops, one gaming laptop, a PC, an iPad, and a phone. Something so simple as a reformat won't stop me from wasting my life in front of a screen :ph34r:

LBP is fun as shit if you have the right people. I have four controllers so it'll be good for when I have some people over for a casual movie night or something like that.

I got Dying Light yesterday, it's a lot of fun so far. Only have like an hour of gameplay though, barely past the prologue.

Lol, I only have my desktop right now. But I am gonna need to buy a laptop for school soon :/

I figure I will just buy something 300-500 to just only use for school. My desktop is a beast, so I will be fine there.

Yeah that's why I'm formatting my laptop. Too many programs and games on it made it slow as hell.

Made a backup of all my school stuff/music/photos and it's now gonna be used strictly for school and music.

Not that I have a beast gaming pc it seems like a logical choice.

The main thing I need is a portable HDD. The movies are killing my desktop's HDD. Just throw all my movies and music on that, get a cheap laptop, then I will be solid. Until then, I have about 40 GBs of space left :/

You could always buy a huge internal HDD, I've seen some 3 TB ones go for less than 200$
