Not sure if many of you know but since the release of black ops on ps3 they havent given us any updates or fixed the on going connection problems and being punted from servers for no reason etc etc even though the xbox and pc version have had many updates to fix the problems this is there response and i had to laff as this is a massive company,
In response to ongoing connection issues and vocal customer criticism, a spokesperson for Activision has told an angry PlayStation 3 owner that the publisher may shut down Call of Duty: Black Ops’ PlayStation Network servers.
Senior support representative Dov Carson replied to blogger Jason Koblovsky’s complaints by advising that Activision are prepared to close the PSN servers.
“The publishers have the right to shut down the servers for their game at any time as well which based on the number of reported posts from users may be a viable solution over the free PSN,” he wrote.
Carson suggested to Koblovsky that the latter return his Black Ops disc to Activision, offering a “one time courtesy” exchange for another title, another platform’s version of Black Ops, or an unopened disc to return to a retailer.
Sister studio Infinity Ward also seems to be giving up on Sony’s network, laying the blame for Modern Warfare 2’s security issues at the platform holder’s door
Same with mw2 a few updates and nothing more since it was released and now the ps3 hackers have been able to open up the system there balming that on the amount of hackers online...even though they didnt fix anything online 2 months after mw2 launch

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 might have already been subjected to numerous game-ruining hacks and exploits, but it looks as though the recent surge in PS3 hacks - including the infamous PS3 jailbreak earlier this month that saw a hacker discovering the console's root key - might have a knock-on effect for the Call of Duty franchise, as Activision is considering pulling online support for CoD on the PlayStation Network.
With more and more hacks and exploits finding their way into CoD's multiplayer - including the most recent instalment, Black Ops - complaints have been coming thick and fast, prompting Activision to look towards shutting down the PSN CoD servers.
According to a report on GamePolitics, Activision’s senior tester and senior support rep, Dov Carson issued a response to one such complaint regarding Black Ops' multiplayer, stating that the publisher could conceivably shut down all Call of Duty servers on PSN.
“The publishers have the right to shut down the servers for their game at any time as well which, based on the number of reported posts from users, may be a viable solution over the free PSN,” said Carson.
Modern Warfare 2 has also seen the number of problems rise significantly snce the PS3 jailbreak, with Infinity Ward's Rob Bowling assuring fans on its forums that the developer is working on fixing the problems. However, he also noted that only Sony itself can really resolve the ongoing issues and prevent the hacks outright. And that's one very tall order indeed.
“Games rely on the security of the encryption on the platforms they’re played on,” said Bowling. “Therefore, updates to the game through patches will not resolve the problem completely unless the security exploit itself is resolved on the platform.
