It's not a good day to be fat. A fat PS3 owner that is.

If you haven't heard, the PSN has gone down.  Let me rephrase that, the PSN has gone down for owners of the original fat model of the PS3.  The vast majority I would wager.  No one online knows for sure what is going on, but from personal experience, trying to log into the PSN comes up with a constant error.  Attempting to log into a game that uses trophies comes up with a different error that makes you quit the game.

In essence, my PS3 is worthless right now.  Sony has acknowledged the problem on their twitter account,

It's been over 5 hours since I first saw the problem and I'm desperately hoping this isn't a diabolic ploy by a greedy executive to get PS3 slim sales up.

Sega, you suck.

I saw a 2D Sonic. I saw a highly acclaimed Japanese game being ported to America.

I really thought Sega was trying to get back into the 90's kick ass track.

Of course I was getting way too confident too quick.  Sega announced they are cutting content from Yakuza 3.  Specifically, the Hostess Club and the Japanese history quiz.
Subsequently, I am announcing the cancelation of my Yakuza 3 pre order with Amazon today.

Thank you Sega. Moves like this keep me in check. Expecting you to do something more relevant than just cutting content than, I don't know, reworking the aspects of the game. Change the history challenge to American history? Change the hostess club to a night club? The game was out in March of last year in Japan. With this much time, you could have improved on it in a number of ways. Now, we get Like a Dragon (the original title resonates better with me) in the same month as the million seller series FF. Is ANYONE awake at Sega?!?


Yu Suzuki, Yuji Naka - where have you gone?!?

Fallout New Vegas

After seriously doubting that Fallout New Vegas would be released in Fall of this year, it seems my doubt may be unwarranted.



Coming to the PS3, XBox 360, and PC. And to celebrate this wondrous occasion, allow me to show you another teaser trailer of the game.



Okay, so maybe I lied about that.
