Hey everyone, at a gaming community I am appart of, someone posted about sony being sued and now having to recal a bunch of stuff...well here is what he said...

As I'm sure some of you know, Sony was recently fined in court for $90 million and asked to stop selling the Playstation and Playstation 2s which infringe on the patents, or rather the dualshock controllers do. Also more than 40 games are being pulled from shelves.

However there is now hope. Sony in a new plan to keep the playstation consoles alive has begun to recall its units from stores and will now be removing the controller from the box and slapping a new price of $129.99 and slapping a sticker on the box stating "No controller included, please purchase at store." However its doubtful the 40+ games will be allowed back on the market.

Edit: Yes. stand alone controllers are being recalled as well.

So, if your planning on getting a PS2 with a good controller and some games that you will never see again, GET IT NOW!!! Cuz if you wait, you will have to use crappy 3rd party controllers.

I don't recal hearing about this and there was no link provided. Is there any truth to this?
