Yeah curious what this one was and what you get?
Either way i'm pretty sure I submitted something for it

Yeah, it says "Sony PS3 Other OS Litigation"
I got $10.07.
That should be enough to get me to Tahiti and maybe buy a couple of Canned Vegetables while i'm at it
More like a bottle of Tahitian Treat and a couple of cans of vegetables
Looking at market value, you need that ten bucks more than me.
I received $10.07 as well.
I thought this thing didn't actually go through so I'm not sure if I should actually cash this check.

I thought this was supposed to be like $60 bucks if we had the OG Phat? Ahh, I see the amount of people who applied lowered the payout.
Wasn't it just "Up to $60", depending on how many people participated? It seems like a lot did, considering it wasn't particularly hard to claim it.
They should have sent money for removing analogue buttons in DS4 which made many PS3 and PS2 games unplayable.
Just one $10 check.
Took forever it to happen.
Here's the history if anyone is curious:
- Sept 2009 - Sony announces Slim and discontinuing OtherOS
- Mar 2010 - Sony says OtherOS is removed due to security concerns
- Apr 2010 - Class action filed
- Jan 2011 - Sony sued hackers for jailbreaking PS3 that re-enabled OtherOS
- Feb 2011/Dec 2011 - Judge threw it out
- Jan 2014 - decision was reversed by U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
- 2016 - Sony settles
- Feb 2017 - Judge rejects settlement saying claims too hard to make and lawyers taking most of the claim
- Sep 2017 - Sony offers up to $65 to each claimant
Claimants only have to provide a username to make a claim, thus dropping the payout dramatically screwing those who waited literally years :D

Finally, reached the finish line.
Wonder if mine will show up today.
It came in like a postcard for everyone right? The back of the check is the front of the postcard?
Wow why did you get 1 less cent than everybody else?
This is an outage, you should file a complaint.
Shit. I have no idea where I lived when I sent that in. Wonder what address it would have went to. That's almost two more chances at the Xbox 1X that makes the taco bell sound.
