PSN is free for everyone except Sony.
As a precursor to its fiscal year 2010 earnings report this past Thursday, Sony released a revised earnings statement announcing an estimated $171 million price tag for the shutdown of PlayStation Network. This is a “reasonable assumption,” and Sony states it will have to spend this on its “personal information theft protection program,” not to mention “welcome back programs,” customer support, network security, and legal costs. In addition, Sony has taken into account potential revenue loss from the outage and recovery.
Gamers who only own a Wii can even do better than this at this point.
Utter mediocrity. There’s no better way to describe High Voltage’s second Conduit title. It’s almost unfortunate for the team, really. Had this been a year ago, mediocrity of this sort could’ve crushed something like Red Steel 2, given the complete dearth of competent Wii shooters. However, after the release of GoldenEye and Black Ops, Conduit 2 doesn’t shine so brightly. Things get even worse when you start pitting it against shooters on other consoles, like the recently released Killzone 3. In any case, Conduit 2 feels very much like an imitator of modern shooters – an imitator that doesn’t really grasp what makes all of those other shooters so great. Though a valiant effort, the end result is somewhat akin to Valve’s Half Life 2, without the big thrills, surprises, and competent enemies.
A recent update on the PlayStation Blog offers up more bad news to Sony console owners.
Today, Patrick Seybold, Senior Director of Corporate Communications & Social Media confirmed that the PSN outage will continue indefinitely. While the team has been working feverishly to bring things back online, according to Seybold, the process is "time insensitive." The outage disables players from going online in any capacity and has disabled some online-heavy games in the process. Sony is also currently investigating possible credit card theft after their system was recently compromised.
