PlayStation Store Stepping Up Its Game
The PlayStation Online Store and mainly its navigation (or lack there of) has taken a lot of hits compared to its rival XBOX Live. Word on the street is that that the Playstation Store is getting ready to launch an upgrade that will help bolster its online offering.
Reports this morning surfaced that Sony’s PlayStation Store would be getting a revamp in Europe. As it turns out, the digital storefront will be overhauled here in the U.S. as well, Sony Computer Entertainment America confirmed today. When it launches in mid-April (via a firmware update), the new PlayStation Store is expected to offer a “more dynamic look and improved navigation.”
Now with more reasons to check out PlayStation Online (see: BluRay), is Sony gearing up for a brawl come Holiday 2009?

Is Editing Wikipedia Pages Anonymous?
Well the simple answer is no. The ability to view which IP addresses have been editing pages in Wikipedia has always existed, but now a student from Cal Tech has gone ahead and not only simplified the process, but has also created a searchable database of IP addresses making changes to pages. The website, Wikipedia Scanner, is straightforward and easy to use, just one warning though, the site is very time consuming!
But in a good way!
It’s fun and interesting searching through pages and IP addresses to find who is changing what- you never know what you might uncover!
For instance, did you know Sony once changed Halo 3’s Wikipedia page to say “Halo 3 won’t look any better than Halo 2?”
Ouch…
The funniest part is that the list goes on and on, from corporations too government agencies, it seems everyone is making changes to Wikipedia pages.
Happy hunting everyone!!

No Grand Theft Auto IV this Holiday Season
Take-Two Interactive’s announcement regarding its plan to delay the release of the highly anticipated “Grand Theft Auto IV” has been a shock to many. The franchise’s newest addition is being postponed from its original release date of Oct. 16th to as late as next fall. Which means it will miss the highly profitable holiday shopping season and disappoint scores of eager gamers who have had the game reserved for months- people such as myself.
Even if, we have many great games on the horizon (Halo 3, Assassin’s Creed, and Metal Gear Solid 4) none will fill the void of no GTA in my book…
