for those wondering of the karma flow if you have platnium, or have both corresponding good and Evil trophies. you will be able to choose your Karma at the beginning of the game, not max but the karma beginning for good or evil.

I played a couple of matches and the end multiplier is still set at 1.5 and points gained during the match are still standard. I agree with Sir Darque; I just don't see double XP.

Indeed, A true sense of Deja Vu. Good sir, those sounds remind me of the phoenix weapon and give me nightmarish thoughts of being in the sights of the Farsight.

Love the raw chaos of Warhawk from the on foot battles to the dog fights of the sky. This StarHawk just looking amazing and watching that jet transform into a mech just gave me shivers as I whispered "Robotech". Keeping an eye on this for sure.

The DLC shall be priced at 15 dollars and for what its worth, its pretty much a steal. Revamped online features, 4 characters, New Titles and Icons and I can only assume to be a couple of Achievements/trophies. Also if you feel you that AE wasn't a good investment; there will be an option to switch versions and return to Super.

The forty dollar price tag is for the disk base release for those who haven't jumped on the Super wagon and now thinking of hopping on but if you have super just download the DLC. unless you prefer to have hard copies of your content then as KiDPANDA so eloquently states; just wait until it hits the bargain bin which won't take long.

Also on Mortal Kombat, All I can say is; pick it up and you won't regret it. Very good game.

Thank you for the stream link Simstim, Very informative. Sony apologized for this incident and is offering compensation in the form of a free month of PSN+, Qriocity and some form of free downloads depending on region. Also if any financial damage that occurs from this incident to CC holders; Sony will help those CC holders. Sony could've done this by the written word by releasing a statement but decided a live conference was more appropriate by that much I really respect that form of communication.

For those who wanted Sony to talk about adding features to the network need to understand that the conference was to address the issue and reassure consumers that they are taking steps to strengthen security. The talk of features will come at a later time say "E3".

Sony you just restore you online service and continue to supply Users great triple A Titles.

@Simstim

thank you good sir.

Indeed, you have read my mind and I'm just sharing my thoughts on this. After reading the article I was left a little puzzled, trying to understand if the writer was trying to actually prove a valid point or venting but steering the entirety of the blame towards Sony is somewhat irrational and the last line of this article indicates this. lets not forget the criminals of this situation are the Hackers, who stole private information for the benefit of selling that information for profit.

As the argument of Sony being at fault might holds some truths. There could've been a flaws in the network; Sony's skills of handling of private information might be lacking, or the Hackers could be just that damn good. this is surely debatable but we can all agree that Sony did not expected or wanted this to happen. Yes I can say that Sony when disconnecting the network should put out a memo quickly stating they were investigating an "external intrusion" but better late than never. since this debacle Sony has taken said steps.

1) Entirely rebuilding the network infrastructure from the ground up while also strengthening its security.
2) Informed users of said incident while providing tips on what to do.
3) Periodically updating their progress to users via the PS blog.
4) Bringing in a Government's federal bureau of investigation to conduct a search for the criminals.
5) Possible Compensation for network outage to users.

Indeed Sony has faults but as of now they are handling the situation with the up most care so users may return to enjoy online gaming once again.

@Psykechan You have risen good points and given the thought I would have to agree. Sony indeed does have shady practices when it comes to their products in terms of consumer control. Almost had my breaking point when I was signing up for PSN, reading the Terms of Agreement as some passages in it are just don't benefit the users but temptation of playing some good games got the better of me. To truly break the brand for me is when my money does not equate to the entertainment I expect. I.E. when games become so dissected that to fully experience it is to pay for individual packs of the core experience a la Chapters. to explain it further; pay for chapter 1, then pay for chapter 2, and so on so forth until you pay for the final. When ALL games begin to do that, then I'll hang up my controller.
