Sony’s reputation has no doubt taken a hit from consumers for the hacking of PSN and SOE accounts. As Silicon Knights founder Denis Dyack indicates, it could hurt both Sony and the industry in general in the future.

“It s very concerning and I think getting as much information out there – factual information out there as soon as possible is good. I know, personally, I just changed all my passwords because I was an active user of the PSN and I didn’t even want to take a chance. I just started changing all my passwords. It s concerning from an industry standpoint . . . digital distribution is the future of our industry and that s what PSN is and I hope it doesn’t undermine people s confidence in that delivery medium.”
