    In a country against terrorism and other illegal activities, there's one group of people that always have to take it to the extreme. The US government that is, especially after SOPA came about. The Department of Homeland Security wants to takes extra steps in protecting us Americans but how will they do it with game consoles?

    It's getting rather chilly in here.

    The good thing for me, my PS3 can't go online due to it running hacked firmware so no one is getting any data from mine. :)
