The games will just be removed from the accounts (my guess). And by keeping the games on your system, you are effectually pirating the game.

Tough dilemna. Who to believe, a news reporter quoting words that were said on a different carriage or a member of the government...

I am sadly inclined to believe the reporter is a story grabbing liar.

Winner!

I fucking hate the sound of posh people. The arrogance of life just seems to portray itself in the accent (eg. listen to when she says "ideas")...

'Badass' bug kills off Borderlands 2 characters
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20136922

And yet no word to EA about their authorisaton to contact these people in the first place?

Serves them right for doing it over a month early, c***s.

This is potentially the worst thing about festival seasons - when XMas chocolates coe out before the halloween masks, you can't help but feel that someone needs to be fired for poor calender management.

Why are they streaming firmware updates via the internet?

They are 1Gb in size ffs, download, backup, install, failsafe.

Can someone explain to me how it's even remotely possible that such a name gets accepted as a real name?
