    I heard he took a personal paycut equal to that of the original stock decrease. 2 things: I heard the stock went back up, and what other CEO would take a personal hit like that when his company was a VICTIM to a cyber attack. This is the first time I have heard of Howard Stringer, and seems like a pretty decent guy.

    I just hate how people blamed Sony exclusively for the hacking. Sure Sony's security may not have been top notch, but if the hacker's didn't exist/hadn't decided to hack them, none of this would have happened.

    Sure people were pissed they got hacked, but Sony wasn't the one responsible for it happening. If anything, it was GeoHot who caused the "uprising."

        he is not the best thing to happen to games. might be the best thing to happen to Sony from a marketing perspective because he acts like he's all that and a bag of chips. i dont like him because he's snobby, there are plenty of others who dont like him either. what does he do other than be a spokesman? Major Nelson is a much better spokesman because he's down to earth and doesnt act like a 12 year old.

          Yeah, and I hate Heath Ledger for what he did to Christian Bale in The Dark Knight. And don't get me started on Christopher Lee. That asshole nearly killed Ian McKellen with magic...

          Seriously though, Kevin Butler just plays a character. It's supposed to be funny for Christ's sake.

          ya, you do realize he is an actor right... and the point of commercials is to get your attention. I think you took those commercials too seriously if you are getting butthurt over it.

          if he's supposed to be funny he's failing miserably at it.

          At least he's apparently a flawless actor. I mean you believed him, right?
