That is awesome!

Someone always has to ruin a great thing.

Awesome article. Indeed Kyoto is one of the coolest cities in Japan, especially if you enjoy visiting temples and shrines.

This thing REALLY needs a hard drive. I really thought they were serious about competing with the big boys :(

I think that average mainstream consumers will be most affected by this news. If they don't own a console yet it skews them towards a 360. And if they are parents of PS3 owners they might restrict their children's purchases on PSN or ct them off totally. Not good for Sony either way.

:)

Rumor has it that Kaz Hirai will be offering everyone affected 1 free year of Xbox LIVE Gold!!!

This would be the absolute worst time to charge for PSN, but I wouldn't put it past Sony to do so. "Sorry we lost all your personal info and all your credit cards were stolen, but we're going to need your new numbers if you want to play online."

They sound logical to me. They probably enjoy purchasing DLC and such, but no longer trust Sony to protect their privacy. It is logical that they would move to the 360.

Alright DS Zelda game ≠ Best Zelda game

That is indeed an option, but but also adds another step and a trip to the store in order to buy content on PSN. Making purchases more complicated is never in a businesses best interest as, ultimately, you will lose some customers along the way. The big advantage of having your CC# in the system is that it enables…

It is crazy to think that my favorite game series of all time is also, seemingly, the buggiest.

This is a PR disaster. It is also the worst thing that could happen to a company that makes A LOT of money from online PSN transactions. I can only imagine the millions of parents that won't be letting their kids buy anything via PSN. This negative stigma is something that won't be going away any time soon.

The original game was a true gem. Very fun to play. I'm excited for this sequel.

I'd say that Gamefly is better financially. It wouldn't be bad if you could devote enough time finishing a game in a day or two.

One of my favorite things about Japan in puroresu or pro-wrestling. In a time when American companies were making it more cartoonish the Japanese were making it more brutal and realistic. There are more 5-star matches from Japanese promotions than any other!

I can't wait for Pixelhead to get his own horror movie!

I think this is one of the best ones so far.

You are welcome.

Anyone seen this yet?
