Man I hate sony more and more. I may not have liked Lik-Sang but there are many people who depended on them to get stuff imported.

Heres the quote from Slash dot

"Thanks to Sony's heavy handed tactics, popular game importer Lik-Sang is closing its doors. All Lik-Sang customers are having their orders cancelled and refunded. Any attempt to place a new order redirects your web browser to the news of Lik-Sang's demise."

Heres the message from Lik Sang.

"'Today is Sony Europe victory about PSP, tomorrow is Sony Europe's ongoing pressure about PlayStation 3. With this precedent set, next week could already be the stage for complaints from Sony America about the same thing, or from other console manufacturers about other consoles to other regions, or even from any publisher about any specific software title to any country they don't see fit. It's the beginning of the end... of the World as we know it', stated Pascal Clarysse, formerly known as the Marketing Manager of Lik-Sang.com. 'Blame it on Sony. That's the latest dark spot in their shameful track record as gaming industry leader. The Empire finally won, a few dominating retailers from the UK probably will rejoice the news, but everybody else in the gaming world lost something today"

Sony is scared. And it's showing now, I think.

lol..
Them going out of business isn't sony's fault. It was something else they aren't letting the public know.
The reason for it is the lawsuit that sony won against them, no money has been awarded as of yet. Meaning the business still can in some sense directly run. They didn't even have lawyers present when the judgement was made against. Meaning they weren't loosing money on lawyer fees. Something certainly smells fishy.

Liksang gets itself into more trouble by selling mods and such anyway
