Don't Be Too Sure I'm As Crooked As I'm Supposed To Be
by Rainier on May 5, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD
Today was a good day. It was like an early birthday or Christmas, whichever works. Received my new GeForce 560 from NewEgg and my new 1TB HD (to replace my troublesome old IDE HD, which I'll back up and then send to digital heaven). This weekend, phase 2 of the new workstation will commence, and hopefully that'll be the end of it.
This weekend is shaping up to be a little busy with the movie premiere of Thor (so there!), and we also have a Y&T concert, which ought to be awesome since I've never seen them before but have been a longtime fan.
A little disappointed with APB ATM. The character import from the Realtime Worlds game has been brought online, but GamersFirst never gave many details about what you would be able to port over. It turns out to be hardly worth the hassle. All you can recuperate are some logo designs and your clothes — no cars, guns or character progression.

Sit Down And Shut Up, Will Ya? Try Not To Live Up To All My Expectations
by Rainier on May 4, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD
Whether you are a PS3, X360, Wii or PC fan, you have to admit that by now, there's so much egg on Sony's face, it must be hard for them to see.
While a $1 billion lawsuit may be a little extreme, I'm not really surprised that this is happening, and it probably won't be the last, either. I'm baffled that this happened in the first place, but the initial reaction also made me scratch my head.
Shortly after it happened, Sony was already on the case, rebuilding its network, improving security and infrastructure, and even moving it to a more secure location. Were they previously running it on a Pentium I computer under the basement stairs, unprotected? Sony Online's data was secure — oh wait, no it wasn't!
Man, what a mess ....
