Title: Activision may shut down PSN servers for Black Ops

What's your take on this? Should a company have the right to shut it's servers down at any time, based on  "Online Gameplay may change at any time"? Call of Duty is riddled with hackers and exploitations for Playstation players, and due to the nature of PSN, not much can be done about it. Players and Activision are frustrated, and they can't find much else to do.

Ignoring the guy above me, just how many PS3 Black Ops players exist? I thought the Xbox360 had more players than the PS3 does. The service isn't going to close down forever, right? If so, then it's understandable that they call pull off something like that. It might even give Black Ops fanatics a rest from playing the game.

Even if there is more XBox live players, there is STILL a lot of PSN players.

I do hope it will come back up though. The only people I know with Black Ops are PS3 owners.

I've never owned a Call of Duty game, but Activision seems to be getting worse at every turn, and there will definitely be lots of people ticked off at this if it's permanent. Then again, this is Call of Duty; the next one will probably be out in a matter of months, and then there will be no reason to play Black Ops anyway.

Bull.
How many hackers are on the X-Box? They have the resources to do something about it, they just aren't.
Just because PS3 got hacked to hell after that last update doesn't mean anything.

There's plenty of hackers elsewhere. I don't think it's really worth shuttin' down the PSN servers.

barely any
the 360 is almost clean except for the stupid glitch that came out that lets you unlock all the golden guns and poop
that's not hacking though, that's just unlocking things the game gives you before you reach the required rank to unlock them

Only because most of them are jerks who say that anything besides Call of Duty and sports games is for toddlers.
Oh, and those annoying 11 year-olds who curse people out and call everything "gay" on Xbox Live.

Of course, we don't need to exagerate either. That's just sad.
