But hackers were already having a field day with COD4 and MW2 way before these hacks...

Ah well, I assume Portal 2 will use Steam rather then PSN. But that being said VAC isn't exactly the best anti-hacker system...
What is the best then?
there is none.
everything can be hacked/cracked/pirated.
EVERYTHING.

The best way to combat piracy is to reward those who buy the real thing, ie what valve are doing on steam with updates, cheating protection, multi-player access, achievements.
I agree :). Also "damnit..." I hate when I sign off here...I have to sign off at work and occasionally the habit spills onto this forum :/.

So basically:
Yo dawg! I heard your security failed so we put a security system in your security system to protect us while you fail to protect us!

Valve laughs heartily at hackers and continues on its way. I'm glad that they have the means to cover their ass but I feel for other people who are potentially affected by the hacked codes.
Ha! That first sentence made my day.

But anyway. This isn't surprising news to me. Valve figured out the best ways to contend with and subsequently counter-act hackers and digital pirates years ago. So it comes as no shock that they're applying the same techniques and philosophies to their PS3 releases.

[edit] Yes I know, late-to-the-game on these posts. But, whatev.

YAH I CALL BULLSHIT ON THIS TOPIC

just recenttly (like 3 hours ago) i signed in to psn and tryed to play portal 2 online, but while i downloaded an update for the game, it signed me out of psn, and i cant sign in since

seriously, i dont know why but im REALLY certain its due to steam becoming hacked recentlly,AND BECAUSE OF THIS I CANNOT PLAY ANY PS3 GAMES ONLINE ANYMORE, VALVE IF YOU DONT FIX THIS IM GOING TO SUE
