They're using PS3's because of THE WAY the Cell Processor crunches numbers, and at a pretty cheap price.
"The Condor Supercomputer’s PlayStation 3, Taha said, is particularly well suited for neural network research. “The PS3’s Cell processor handles a lot of parallelism,” Taha said, “like neurons in a brain.” #2.1.1
"while other games that are just rehashes of the same thing get high scores."
Especially since COD seems to get worse with each iteration, yet gets the same score each time. -_-"
"i hope the 3d wont take away ANY of the games quality...or have ANY reason for NG's to sacrifice ANY features in respect to 3d or im gonna be pissed!"
Actually 3D has allowed Naughty Dog to include splitscreen. >:D #1.1.15
Yea. Like the hackers were planning on just sitting around doing nothing after they've successfully hacked the PS3.
Sony had to combat the hackers because a situation like this was an inevitable outcome once the PS3 was hacked. Sooner or later, a hacker would target the PSN and its content.
The birth of Skynet? @_@ #1.1.2

Which means they have to make the gameplay THAT MUCH more addictive or else it will get boring quick.
The story and presentation seems to be amazing though. #1.1.1
In FFX, as soon as you can use the Sphere Grid you could progress however far you want on the Grid... if you had the necessary items.
FFXIII on the other hand PURPOSELY limits your progress because there's so little depth to the actual gameplay.
An RPG with a storyline that only takes place wi... #3.1.4
Also hope there's no more need for Konami ID. -_-"
But I still want to find out more about his "taboo" game! #1.1.4
They let all logic fly out the window and DEMAND the answer even before Sony found out exactly what happened and to what extent. #1.1.2
All they ever said was that there was an external intrusion on PSN. #2.1

Well that's my guess since the hacks for the 360 mainly requires some simple hardware mods and not much software related stuff.
I could be wrong though. #1.3

Sony ended up merely delaying it. #1.1.14
People speculate that it might be because of the Japanese Tsunami that caused the delay in America (sensitive media) and Japan. #2.2.1
Heck, it would be even more awesome if they allow you to unlock Jak and Daxter's skins to be used in singleplayer too!
Btw, I hope co-op allows more players in a single match. Just imagine 8 player co-op against computers! >:D #1.1.4
Devs aren't the only ones losing out on sales, Sony is too.
Since Sony makes some profit from every content or subscription purchased, Sony would try their best to regain the loss of potential sales. #1.1
But I've been waiting a month for it ever since it came out in Europe! >_< #2.1.1
Sony already said the whole of PSN is being taken down while they fix it.
I think this message is just in case some developers thought PSN being taken down only affected normal users.
Either that or this message has already been up for awhile but websites have just found out about it. #1.1.5
