6 Days till Getting Nuked: "Eat shit and die."

For those of you who've seen the infamous ventrilo harassment video, I'm sure you'll recognize this line. This line is the one repeated along with "Balls of Steel" until the target breaks down into tears and starts freaking out.This quote is brought about the ultimate ass-kicking given to the alien enemies. The bringing about this while killing awesome amounts of enemies is so awesome you can't help but go "Hellz yeah!"

On another note, for the PSN users: The "Welcome Back" package is out on the Playstation Store. I'm currently downloading Dead Nation and still deciding whether to get inFamous or LBP. Any suggestions? Anyways, if you have a PSN account and made it before the 21 of April, get down to downloading your games and enjoying the free month of Playstation Plus!

Keep it cool!

Side-note: To answer some of the question posted in the past few days. I am not really a weaboo. I used to be upon the making of my PSN account, but I liked the name and decided to stick with it.

As for the meaning behind my name, the word 'baka' means idiot. I took the name because it's kind of an ironic name and it'll be kinda humiliating to be owned online by someone who's named "idiot". That, and i couldn't think of any other names while making my several accounts :P

10 Days Left till getting Nuked: "I've got balls of steel!"

I think I want to start out the quote series with Duke's most well-known quote. Everyone knows this, even the guys who never played Duke Nukem in their lives. This quote is the embodiment of awesomeness and deserves to be the first quote to be mentioned.

In other news: Sony announced that the rest of their online services (such as the Playstation Store) will be back up by the end of this week. I'm not too sure if they'll actually put it up by the end of this week, but we gotta stay hopeful. All i want from the store are my free games and maybe Outland. But we'll see where it goes.

PSN: The "Welcome Back(OMG we're so sorry) Pack"

I apologize for the short post last night my fellow LaGers, I wasn't feeling too well and my throat was killing me. I couldn't get much sleep either, I woke up every odd hour. It was NOT fun. But alas, as I am still a little sick, I'm back to post for you guys. I'll go to the doctor today to see what's up.

OK, now for the matter at hand: Sony said a while back that they would be releasing a welcome back package for everyone that was affected by the PSN outage. They said free games were to be downloadable  and that 30 day free Playstation Plus membership was to be had by all. I for one think it's a brilliant way to get our trust back.

Sony announced the different games that will be sold to each region. Here is said list of games up for download. (Remember: you can only download 2 of the 5 for your PS3, and 2 of the 4 for your PSP)

PS3 DL's for USA and Latin America:

• Dead Nation
• inFAMOUS
• LittleBigPlanet
• Super Stardust HD
• Wipeout HD + Fury

PS3 DL's for Europe:

• LittleBigPlanet
• Infamous*
• Wipeout HD/Fury
• Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty
• Dead Nation*

 And let's not forget about the PSP users. ALL the DL's for PSP are the same.

PSP Games up for DL:

• LittleBigPlanet (PSP®)
• ModNation Racers
• Pursuit Force
• Killzone Liberation

Well played Sony, well played indeed. You already got my trust. I know I'm going to download Dead Nation and LBP. I was planning to do it soon actually, regardless of the free-ness. Thanks Sony :P

What games are you guys going to get if you're a PSN User? If you aren't one: what do you think about all this? Comment and discuss!

I'm off to finish Dante's Inferno. LaG on.

Confirmed

I am glad to confirm that PSN is officially up for multiplayer and for messaging friends! Yesterday, Sony said it was going to be up in most states in the US and some other countries, but it looks like it's up all over the world now. I'm sure we've all waited a long while for this,but now it's finally back.

I hope to see my fellow LaGers online! I'll be playing Demon's Souls and Killzone 3 mostly when I get the time. I'm currently in a test week and need to study somewhat, but I'll be online some of the times.

Enjoy PSN LaGers!

Finally

A few hours ago, Sony announced the launch of PSN once more. That's correct my friends, PSN is finally coming back up. The online services of PSN and Qriocity are first starting up again in some states of the US and in some countries. Not all countries have PSN up yet (Like South Africa for instance - Damnit), but it will be up soon, so not to worry fellow LaGers.

Though PSN is coming back up, not all their services will be up yet. The majority of their services will be up, but some like Playstation Store will still be down for a little while.

The coming of PSN does have some tweeks, such as an improved security system and a requirement to change your PSN password. There is a system update that will improve security of your PS3, so i recommend you download it asap.

Here are the statements released by SCE.

PSN promise

Well, as you all might know, PSN has been down for quite some time now. There's been a lot of raging and a lot of debates regarding this whole mishap, like people wanting compensation for not being able to play their games online or check their mail and what not.

I just heard yesterday that Sony is going to compensate us PSN users, so worry not my fellow LaGers. They stated that for all PSN users, we would be able to download 2 games of 5 from the Playstation Store for free. They haven't said what these games would be, but lets just cross our fingers and let them decide it can be any 2 games. For the Playstation Plus users, they will not be billed this month for using the Playstation Plus, and of course they can download the games too.

I also heard something about the PSP users being able to download like 2 games, but I'm not too sure if it's correct, so don't get your hopes up guys. I'm not too sure myself.

Lets just hope Sony gives us awesome games do download and that they get PSN up soon.

News update: PSN

Sony released a statement on their blog earlier today saying that: though PSN and Qriocity are down, they are still working on it. They also said that they would not start up the online services until they are completely certain that the security is up to scratch and secure.

I personally think that this is a major mess-up, but at least the company is trying their best to bring it up and keep it secure. Let's all just hope that PSN will come back up so we can start playing online again.

Here is their post regarding the situation:

Hang in there guys. It'll be up soon(we hope)

So a pretty eventful day

So, i woke up this morning and first thing I see when I turn to my phone: Osama Bin Laden dies.Well, to many people(Mostly Americans i assume), they're kinda happy he's dead and what not. To me, well, I'm more surprised they actually found the guy. I mean, it took them over 10 years. But good for the guys who found him. Must've taken ages.

Anyway, today I also went to the open day of my local university here in my city. It was pretty fun, learning about the different courses to take and all that. But it was today that I finally made up my mind that i'm going to take Game Designing in university. (woohoo, I can finally sleep tonight)

Oh yeah, lest i forget, I was packing some clothes for the needy today. I managed to get 12 bags out of it. So I think I did pretty well. Hope it helps the needy.

I just wanted to say thanks to all the support from friends and fellow LaGers about my choice in university. I now know and think i shall be happy there :P

Keep on LaGing people.

Baka

Oh yes, my one friend told me a really funny joke today. I wanna share it with you all.

So Bin Laden is dead... It shows you what Americans can do when PSN is down for just a week.

Haha, enjoy it guys, Peace

An Update about PSN

Hey there again guys. As you know, PSN has had an "external intrusion" about a week ago. I know that it's caused a lot of rage(with me especially), but Sony says they ARE working to fix it.

I'm just going to put the most important thing out there first. According to Sony, our credit card info was encrypted and though it was stolen, it couldn't be read. So the possibility that our credit card info is safe is VERY likely. But as Sony said(and I recommend everyone do this ASAP), it is recommended that everyone keeps track of their credit card transactions over the course of PSN being down as there is still a TINY chance the hackers got our card info. So just to be on the safe, just keep track and report to the bank as SOON as there was a transaction you didn't do.

On the downside, our address information was not encrypted. So hackers currently have access to our residential and postal info. But really, what're hackers going to do with that beside send prank pizza's over.

Anyway, Sony said they're working hard on getting PSN back up and running for heir loyal gamers. They said it'll probably take a week or so, so lets just keep our fingers crossed.

Happy Easter, LaGers!

Hey there LaGers. Just dropped in to say happy easter and have fun with the families on the holiday.

I haven't had time to post yesterday or the weekend because my brother came from another town to visit(yesterday was his birthday, so i partied hard). I would make a video about this, but my parents are sleeping, unfortunately. So I can't make a video right now, and i can't tonight because I'm going out for dinner with the "familia".

Put on your bunny ears and jam down to some good old gaming. Hang in there my fellow Playstation-ers. Hopefully PSN will be up soon(fingers crossed).

Baka

PS. Here's a really good cover of Want You Gone (credit song at the end of Portal 2). I've had this song stuck in my head for the whole day. Enjoy!

PSN down. RAGE!

Meh, PSN is down and it frustrates me so much. You plan your entire day around owning noobs and then this happens.

Sigh

Need moneys!

Hey guys. Please make a donation to me :( (Just kidding). I'm struggling right now :( My need for games is consuming all my money:(

I still haven't had enough cash to get my DA2 and all these other must-buy games are coming out within the next months (Duke Nukem Forever anyone?). Alas, I shall just have to work hard and be a little patient. I'll write a review of Dragon Age 2 when i get the money and play it for a bit. For now, I'll download Abe's Odysee (Hellz yeah!)
