So here I sit reading the latest on this whole PSN debunk that it “should” be up before the end of May. Now the latest shows Sony disputing this rumor not offering any clarification in the slightest. Sony is in a world of trouble currently and not knowing any details on what is going on is hurting my judgment even more.

This isn’t a post to bag on Sony for not handling this situation well at all but more of a shock that they still cannot get their network back online. Not only is Sony hurting with the downtime, but companies like Capcom are making public statements claiming loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars because the store is inaccessible to all users. Not to mention that one amazing week with MK, Portal 2, and Socom 4; all games that have a strong online component that no gamers have been able to enjoy.

Not to beat a dead horse but I’m still amazed at how people have reacted to this. Normally the internet is fuming with hatred on situations like this but I’ve seen a large portion of gamers just patiently waiting for the service to be back up. I’m glad I decided to buy MK for 360 since I have that special Evil d-pad controller.

For my weekly update, I don’t have much to brag about. I started Portal 2 on PC but am still under an hour in that game. I’m quite surprised that I’ve come this far without having any spoilers of Portal 2. I played quite a bit of Sonic and Sega All Star Racing with my niece and grabbed 100 Rogues for free on iOS. That is a great dungeon crawler but kept crashing on me once I left my Wi-Fi spot.

I plan on getting back on MK and maybe finally finishing my second playthrough of Mass Effect 2. I’ve put that off long enough. I’m eager to read the reviews of Brink tomorrow to see if it’s something I’ll be interested in and maybe squeeze that in somewhere.

Happy Gaming
