Playstation Network was "Hacked"

   Sony did make it official Friday by posting in their blog of the "external intrusion" as Sony put it.  This could not have come at a worse time with Socom 4 just releasing this week and thousands of people wanting to play online including myself.  This downtime of the PSN though has given me a good opportunity to play through the offline campaign which is very pleasantly fun.

Almost Platinum...

   I finally got one of my LBP 2 levels played by 50 players and without doing any boosting or "play for play" behavior, I earned this on pure "advertising" on LBP forums and discussion.  This makes my trophies mean more to me.  Quite surprisingly I actually have two levels at the 50 plays mark now.  I discussed my level's lack of attention in this posting if you're interested.
   So, just three trophies between me and my third platinum trophy.
