Earlier today, Sony disabled the update password function on the PSN Web site due to an exploit that allowed end users to update the password on any account to which they had the e-mail address and birthday — the very same data that was compromised in the original hack. Something weird also happened with Rockstar's support site today.

Earlier this week rumors started floating around that Rockstar was already preparing a new installment in its open world action series, not a DLC or a collection, but a full retail game, and that it could come as early as end of 2009, based on GameInformer's Loose Talk column section.

sent out word it is currently focusing on the downloadable content, and nothing else.
