    About 7 years ago… Friend and I built PC’s about 6 months apart, him first, then me. Same ASUS motherboard. 2 years go by and his motherboard just dies. Few months later, mine dies. They honored the Warranty but the RMA process was awful. Little to no communication and it took a month for each of us to get refurbished motherboards back. I have not used a single ASUS product since.



  • Quick note… After typing this up I realized this is more a response to the OP than to you. Sorry for the rant lol.

    They knew about it and implemented it but the game blew up at launch and the stupid PSN requirement caused tons of server issues. So to allow people to play they temporarily disabled it. Now, after all this, the CEO was incredibly transparent about the whole situation and was working to get it resolved with Sony.

    To me the CEO is a breath of fresh air. He cares about his product and was open about everything going on.

    Sony put themselves in this position.

    6-7 years of development and 6 months before they drop this requirement? Which does little to nothing except inconvenience your customer… Not to mention Sonys track record with data breaches… And on top of all that the launch would have been ruined due to this requirement and possibly wouldn’t have allowed the game to get as big as it is?

    Fuck that and fuck Sony.
