'As you know in the press release dated January 5' wait wut?

TheStonedSheep4829d ago

It's been translated via Google, please tolerate the Engrish, check below for the gist of it.

Skyliner124829d ago

Google translate leaves a lot to be desired. Japan does dates different from North America and Europe, the month is listed first, then the day, then year. Google confused 5/1/2011 (May 1st 2011) for 1/5/2011 (January 5th, 2011).

So basicly no new info -_________-

Let me see the things i could do in seven days

I could not make update articles that contain no new info.

I could not read said article.

I you could make more interesting article instead of feeding into the hyperbowl, ESPECIALLY IF IT HAS NO NEW INFO!!

-Seven Dayz that is the amount of time it will take Tman to rule the world. Das Fuhre.

-All Hail Tman

Where there is demand, there will be supply.

maxcavsm4829d ago

God damnit, are you kidding me? Still nothing? Man, they're going to have to up the rewards that they give people when it's back online.

xAlmostPro4828d ago

Some people are so greedy!

Why should they up the rewards?.. The stuff you're already getting free probably covers the cost of what you or atleast most people(because im sure if i said just you, you'd claim i was wrong)spend in the ps store in a year..

Sony were hacked, could have happened to any company, they were just unfortunate with the geo hot lawsuit etc.

Infact there has already been worse data breaches from bigger companies.

You should cut sony some slack for having to handle this. Rebuilding the network, brand new servers, hiring experts of security to test the whole new network, answering to governments, working with the fbi, providing feedback, recieving onslaughts of spam with people saying things like "zomg we wantz free thingz" developing a welcome back program, providing the new anti id theft service for all users.. on top of that the constant media coverage putting a bad mark on them as well as stocks falling.

That's a huge amount of things they've had to cover in pretty much 2 weeks(as they didn't know the full extent until 6 days after).

Be happy with what you're going to recieve, be happy that they're working hard to get the service you enjoy back online.

DigitalHorror814827d ago

Personally, I don't need ANYTHING---But---I would like PSN to be up AS SOON AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE. To be down until May 31st is ridiculous.

Skyliner124829d ago

Reads like it's just saying the old reports were false, they're still working on strengthening their system. PSN isn't up anywhere just yet.

Does this mean that Palworld is getting an anime?

Abnor_Mal16d ago

Crazy that they’ve formed a partnership of sorts, but the game itself still haven’t been released on PlayStation

badz14916d ago

It's still in Early Access. If it ever goes gold, there will definitely be a PS5 version, might even be a PS4 version too

Abnor_Mal16d ago

I still have no clue what this game is all about, to be honest.

badz14916d ago

@Abnor_Mal

If games like ARK is not to your liking, then Palworld wouldn't be your cup of tea either...I think.

New Sony Controller May Let You Draw Your Own Buttons Using Conductive Ink

Sony has published a new patent about a controller that can be completely personalized by a user, including its shape and layout.

TFJWM30d ago

It is just a patent if it is new tech you file it

S2Killinit30d ago (Edited 30d ago )

Dont get me wrong, I love that Sony does these research into new tech and all, after all it led to something as fun as the Dualsense, but im just asking why this particular tech would be useful in any way.

Profchaos30d ago (Edited 30d ago )

Interesting idea likely something that will never actually be produced but Sony's simply securing the paten

Profchaos30d ago

Common practice really so many companies pattern troll because they either intend to make a product or just want to hold onto the rights of the idea there's some insane ones out there especially at the dawn of the internet.

You can have no intent to use it but this is just saying you thought of it first

kylegeorge8830d ago

yeah no, the controllers need the hall effect before investing more time and money into quirks.

BlackDoomAx30d ago

But how will they sell as many controllers if they do that?

fsfsxii30d ago

Maybe consider your personal hygiene before blaming someone else for your controller defecting

DustMan30d ago

I doubt @FSFSXII even knows what hall effect is. What a turd.

y2mate30d ago

great idea, but will it fully distributed to other continent ?
