I'll have to add that to my list then. I only play one rpg at a time and I just started The Witcher last night... not to mention the life drain that is Rift.
Beware the wombats...

Playing:
PC: The Witcher
GCN: Zelda: The Wind Waker
360: Assassin's Creed 2
PS3: 3D Dot Game Heroes

Looks like Japan will go live first. Any Racketeers currently in JP who can let us know when things come online?

found this interesting:
IGN.com wrote:The PlayStation Network has been offline for more than three weeks, but despite the outage, April saw an increase in PlayStation 3 sales. According to a Sony statement from Patrick Seybold, senior director of corporate communications at SCEA, NPD reported a 13 percent April increase for hardware sales and 40 percent year-over-year increase in software sales.

Wow that is quite peculiar.

Somewhat related I guess, since idiot hackers are trying to make a "movement" here or something.

Eidos and Deus Ex websites hacked. Personal data of up to 80,000 users could have been stolen along with resumes, confirmed by Square Enix:
Update: Square Enix has confirmed that Eidosmontreal.com and two of its product sites were compromised. The company states that 350 job applicant resumes "may have been accessed" and those individuals are being contacted. Furthermore, 25,000 email addresses, which were "not linked to any additional personal information" were obtained. Read the full Square Enix statement after the break.

UNACCEPTABLE. This is looking like it's going to be a fantastic prequel to the original. You do not fuck with Deus Ex.

After reading this article, yeah I'm pretty stoked and think it'll deliver. Of course, I'm not setting the bar up there to the original... but I think it'll top Invisible War (which I still enjoyed, lol).

I'm sorry to hear about your situation but surely there's other ways of interacting other than PSN? Plus there's tunneling services like Xlink."

No I blame greedy hackers who did this solely to sell private info and then pretend to be doing it for the little guy. Sony has done tons of dumb things but to put the sole blame on them for hacker' decision to do this is even dumber.
You don't understand what a Hacker is and what a Cracker is. Hackers are the ones liberating the system from Sony's death grip to bring features Sony would never add themselves. Crackers are the ones breaking into Sony's servers themselves and stealing information. I do not believe for one minute that Anon was involved in the virtual heist, they're way too disorganised and amateurish. Sony are using them as a scapegoat because they're an easy target, in reality Sony have absolutely no idea who did it.

whats the point? Are they just trying to break everything now for the sake of it?
