Basically, the London Riots have struck Sony's only CD and DVD depot in England, or something.

WOW. That's not what I'd call an effective way to protest against the government

Games that refuse to use Gameplay effectively to do anything are like films that refuse to use cinematography in film to do anything.

Oh. My. God!!! I'm not a Sony fan, but that's still terrible! And let me guess, were they Microsoft fanboys? XD jk.

Why are people so violent? -.-
I don't get how doing something to Sony's CD and DVD depot will make a difference? I think people just used the riot as an excuse to do it...

That's terrible...

Even if I don't like Sony anymore, It's still terrible.

This should be in the Cafe, not General Gaming, as it is not even about Sony's gaming division.

My thoughts on the riot? I honestly just wonder WHY people do things like this. :(

It's a tough position for me... On one hand, I am impressed by the riots, but on another, I can't condone the destruction that follows. The people are finally standing up against the abuse that corrupt cops and government have installed for years. Some people are in it to show their position, but others just use it as an excuse to steal and destroy.

As much as I'd like to applaud them for hitting Sony, violent rioting is too much to condone. Why can't they just go on mass-starvation strikes, instead...

Sadly, Wonder Woman is retired. And in turn, all of them turned into old humans.
