College woes

I wanted to update this site daily again, but it appears as though that's going to be put on hold until at least Friday. I've got two tests to study for, a 5 page paper to write, and about six pages worth of Math to crank out over the next couple days. So, if anything gets posted it'll be from either Tempest Nix or our newest writer, Nexxie.

Sony go through with "PSN Pass"

Sony has confirmed that a "pass" will be needed to play any used games on the Playstation network in the near future.  At first, this was just something that was going to be tested with the release of resistance 3, but now Sony has given the green light to push it on all Playstation games that have access to the Playstation Network.

What this system will do is assign each game a key, and each key will be assigned to a PSN ID.  Once this code has been used on a PSN ID, it will allow that player to access the game's online content.  If, for whatever reason, the game is sold or traded, a new key will need to be purchased at the price of $10 USD.

Essentially what Sony's doing at this point is grabbing at more money.  They want to get their hands in the used game market and leech just that much more money from their customers; a "moneygrab", if you will.  Now, I've never really been a big fan of Sony, but I never thought they'd pull something like this.  With this trend in gaming of things like Call of Duty Elite and this PSN Pass becoming acceptable, what can we look forward to in the near future?

College, woo!

I'm in college now, and with college comes quite a bit of freedom. This means I actually have more free time now(with a bit of careful management) than I ever have. I'm going to try and get two more writers to bring some posts in here, but even if that fails I'll still try to get one or two articles up a day. I'm back!

hopefully

Why haven't there been any updates?

/this/ is why

But seriously, I am sorry there haven't been any updates lately. I'm sick of my job and honestly don't have much energy to do much of anything. If I don't get this fucking promotion soon, I might actually quit :\

No updates for a bit

At least from me. I just got my computer parts in and am in the process of setting everything up and getting things installed. I'll be getting my Win 7 disk tonight and will install it tomorrow after work, so the earliest you'll see an update would be Saturday or Sunday.

There's a possibility I might be able to get Tempest to get off his lazy ass and write an article or two, but I'm not promising anything.

Sooo.. it's official now

PETA is full of trolls.


PETA has now named Adult Swim's Polar Bear Payback their most animal friendly game of the year for its reversal of the usual man on animal violence we see so often.

4chan... DDoS'd?

The asshole of the internet has been out assholed. I never thought this day would come, but 4chan is now down due to a DDoS attack . Some of you may be asking yourself, "what's a DDoS attack?", or "why should I care?". Well, the answer to those are this and "You shouldn't," respectively.
