Sony's silence in this matter is infuriating. The official response page to the hack/outage hasn't been updated since May 15th. Get it back online or don't, just tell us what you're doing, you bastards.

Kudos for trying. I don't know if ANYTHING can get Japan excited about the Xbox, but a promo along these lines is smart. A price drop would help too, considering the strong yen means Microsoft could afford one. Why is Kinect still 15,000 yen (over $183)?
Wow, I hope you like it! This was my first real Shiren experience, I'm looking forward to the next one.
Being on a handheld helps a lot. I've just got time to kill on the train or bus so why not attempt a (completely charming) Sisyphean task?
Thanks! Initial reactions from 1up readers were...less than positive. Glad to hear dissenting opinions.
Go for it! I will not be dropping by, for obvious reasons. Sorry.
I wish the situation was nothing but positive, but things are getting tough around here too. Still in good shape, I believe, but it's not what it used to be.
Games in Japan usually experience a sizeable price drop after a few months to stimulate sales. Activision doesn't need to do that in the US because nothing stops people from buying Call of Duty. Hell, the CEO once talked (jokingly?) about raising the price - just because.
The Bechdel Test isn't a measurement of how positive female portrayals are, just their mere presence in media. I'll agree that most female fighters are heavy on eye-candy but at least choosing a woman is an option.
I guess you missed the part where he said the PS3 has lots of great games? His negative comments were directed at the PSN itself, which is far from perfect.
I used to get good d/l speeds over PSN, but as time went on they got slower and slower. It's frustrating.
I think you misread the title. That comma is there for a reason.
I never heard of Wondercon until Bitmob and the like started talking about it this weekend. How long has this been going on?
It is! If I ever finish it someday I'll listen to this entire episode.
