The longer this goes, the more it feels like the PSN hack of 2011.

With any luck, things will be back to normal soon.

Five figures just for the literature? I'm reading that correctly, right?

Who is the Seahawks player leaping into the celebration without wearing a helmet? Is that a fine-able offense in Ginger Hammer's NFL?

"Baby It's Cold Outside" at 39 is still too high. Way too many date-rape implications.

That's how you enter the Crota's End raid. The game allows you to descend the Hellmouth only in that mission.

This Titan seemed really anti-cheesing. - camconut

I'm taking these from the Sony Entertainment Network website, not my console, but these are some of the file sizes for PS4 games that I own currently. Some I have on disc, some not, but hopefully this will give some perspective.

I don't know whether Destiny is a disappointment because it is or I'm being told it is by a growing number of people. It doesn't feel like a disappointment because of how fun it is to play, but the ever-changing currency and upgrade systems, the lack of comprehensible story that you mentioned (there's so many things…

All of this is why I had no inclination to level up to 30 pre-DLC, why I have no desire to level up to 32 now, and why I will probably never care to hit the cap in future updates. None of it will keep me from playing the game, but I'll find enjoyment in it without hitting the goalposts.

This is one of the more thoughtful, informative pieces I've read on this mumps outbreak. Thank you for this.

If only the hidden pigeons in GTA IV had guns. That would have been awesome.

Exactly how deep is the repository of "Stupid-Looking Goodell Photos"?

Yeah, I think I know what you mean. Four is already about two more than I really want. Pocket Infinity and Plan C are the two I use the most; I haven't swung around to Bad Juju or Last Word yet. If I ever stumble across an Exotic Scout Rifle, I could get some good use out of that; otherwise, I'm good for a while.

I'm open to ideas (but not Call of Duty).

Probably to keep the most powerful weapons in the game the rarest. If everyone has the best weapons, there are no advantages gained by them.

I get all that. I have four exotics right now, one of which is fully upgraded, and while it's pretty neat I can upgrade them all if I have the currency to do it, it does kinda suck that I have to continue to rely on Xur's lottery like I was before. The concept behind Xur's lottery hasn't changed; it's just expanded.

Would it help matters if they made Xur a regular vendor, like the Vanguard/Crucible/faction vendors? Just set him up there as the exotic vendor, seven days a week, with rotating inventories of upgradeable exotics like the others?

20 light points bumps you to level 21, then each new level is 12 more points. The previous max level of 30 was 120 Light; the new cap of 32 is 144 Light.
