What a pile of shit...RIP Lik-Sang. I know it is old news but that bullshit Sony pulled still bothers me...

John Davidson: Dangerous, what finally spelled the end for the great Lik Sang?

Dangerous: Lik Sang shut themselves down...

Smokehouse: I disagree...

John Davidson: Correct Smokehouse, Sony attempted to sue the shit out of Lik Sang multiple times until the finally won, forcing them to shutdown to avoid paying an absurdly huge settlement. Circle gets the square.

Never ordered anything from them.

I'm surprised only 2 import companies can support all of our gaming needs. Seems like they're always sold out of everything...

Eh, I poked around their site back when it was open and everything was horribly overpriced.

It's like getting teary eyed over Circuit City.

Used to order tons of stuff from them and never had anything but positive experiences.

Huge dick move by Sony.

yeah i think i bought a DC to USB or a DC to ps2 adapter for one of my friends, can't remember which one it was, but I never found it elsewhere. He wanted one or two more adapters and i told him that the store was going bankrupt.

yes it was sad that they shut down.

also i believe somebody here on the boards had a picture of their building.

"Oooh. Guns, guns, guns. C'mon, Sal. The Tigers are playing...[slaps the table] tonight. I never miss a game. "

No need to get the guns out K...you know and I know that what they were doing, and what Sony sued the shit out of them for was a technicality...A.K.A nit-picking and flexing their Sony muscle to an importer...

I bought a region modded GCN from them on launch, as well as a dozen other things. I do miss that place. I bet they'd have some kick ass new stuff by now. Problem with that is I bet they'd have plug and play lag switches and shit like that, lol.

Lamenting the loss of a shitty import video game site BASED IN HONG KONG is laughable.

Maybe if they were based in the United States I could understand it and all, but who the fuck cares about Hong Kong. Jesus christ, it's like listening to a bunch of 5th graders who just discovered how to jerk off, with the way everyone goes on about poor poor Lik Sang. It's business, it isn't always fair. Who gives a fuck.

I missed them for a little while but these days Superufo.com and Dealextreme.com have been taking care of my dodgy HK import needs just fine.

Has DangerousK always been such an uppity bitch?

I really haven't been paying enough attention to know how long this has been going on.

Did Lik-Sang jizz in a game case you ordered from them or something? This post is quite angry.

They dishonor Sony with nonhonorable products.

Sony does not approve of dishonor.
