It only got this popular partly because of the lack of a PSN account to play. Developer said they had somewhere between 5 and 20 times the number of players they expected.

I'm not going to. Ultimately, Sony is a megacorp and I'm just one dude. I'll simply voice my displeasure to people inquiring about them, and never trust a Sony product or promise in my life again. They probably won't give 2 shits, and I'm fine with that.
