Too...many...ARTICLES!

2011 was going to be an awesome year for Sony...they had it all planned well. Tons of exclusives lined up, new features like Steamworks, until some arrogant dude named GeoHotz decided to pick the innards of the PS3 and put this out to the public. Sony didn't take this lying down so they sue him and the sh*tstorm then began.

Hacks, more hacks, patches, attacks and the sad part is that the good honest consumer was caught in the crossfire. Fastforward to last week and the storm is even worse. All thanks to the guys crunched in front of their computers with lots of free time matched with their boredom; who get a stupid idea like let's hack Sony and the PlayStation Network.

why would a PC website (pcworld.com) be posting a PSN related news ??

Anarki5467d ago

More of a technology company in general. They sell consoles too.

All I want is a timeframe on when PSN will be back online and when the PS-store will be back online. (Wanna get PS+ and with it the KZ3 maps a.s.a.p.).

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5789d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905789d ago (Edited 5789d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5789d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5789d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495789d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5789d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5789d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
