We saw this whilst making the usual rounds across our favourite websites and we thought we had to share. Be sure to watch the entire video, including the ever-so soppy ending. We can assure you it presents a feeling women undergo when watching a romcom (apparently). If you follow the watch on YouTube link you can even go and play the level.

Sony has confirmed that they will be cutting off PSN access to gamers that have hacked their PS3s. What’s more, users will be blocked from Sony’s new Qriocity music service: the same service that Sony is moving all their iTunes content to. Here’s Sony’s official statement on those pesky hackers:
The strangely sizeable Xbox 360 dashboard update we all got yesterday that re-enabled the “boot to disc” option also introduced some new anti-piracy measures. Essentially, the update blocks certain backups/pirate copies from booting at all on certain drives. Specifically, the games protected by this include Halo Reach, Call of Duty Black Ops and Modern Warfare 2. What’s more, when users try to load these backups on the new dash it Read More ...
Sony has broken their silence over the recent hacking of their PlayStation 3. The company were remarkably quiet after the system’s security measures were completely defeated this week.

Sony has released a new ‘mandatory’ firmware update for the PlayStation 3. Entitled “3.42”, the update adds “additional security features” according to Sony. If gamers don’t update, they will not be able to access the PlayStation Network unless they play around with a proxy server bypass (and that will only last until Sony clamps down on it again). Homebrew/backup fans across the internet have confirmed that the patch currently stops Read More ...

A USB modchip for the PS3 has been developed by a Chinese firm, called “PSJailbreak”. It allows games to be dumped onto the console’s HDD and external drives and allows you to play them without the original disc. Apparently the device can work on all PS3 models and supports the current PS3 firmware.
