PSN新年有賞、Q-Game 10周年紀念

今日のpixiv　お持ち帰り～

外國聖誕節總是有特賣什麼的，而且折扣都相當多←其實是資本主義的毒害呀！
台灣過節好像都沒什麼優惠…

　レイ：「真是沒夢、沒希望」

這次農曆過年台灣PSN總算有特價了～
台灣PSN新年優惠活動

在猶豫想買的PSN內容時，剛好發現日本的PSN也有特價活動
Q-Games 創立10周年記念キャンペーン！

準備考試實在很苦悶…
原本レイ只是無聊打開Google Reader看看PSB有沒有inFAMOUS 2的消息
（US PSS有inFAMOUS 2的Demo！快去試試吧！
沒想到看到10分多鐘前才剛發布的新消息
Yeah! It's BACK!!!

PSN確認外洩個人資料

PSB清晨的消息
Update on PlayStation Network and Qriocity
經過數日的調查，Sony已確認入侵者盜取PlayStation Network/Qriocity使用者的個人資料
　包括：
　　姓名
　　住址
　　國家
　　E-mail帳號
　　生日
　　PlayStation Network/Qriocity帳號密碼←密碼不是應該加密儲存嗎…
　　handle/PSN online ID
並可能獲得profile data（多半也是外洩了
　包括：
　　購買履歷
　　帳單地址
　　PlayStation Network/Qriocity密碼安全問題答案
若有授權子帳號（沒使用過呢）亦可能被取得以上資料
雖然目前尚未找到證據，但信用卡資料亦有可以外洩
　包括：
　　信用卡號碼（不包括安全號碼）
　　有效期限

建議採取行動：
　信用卡部分：（緊急）
　　主動聯絡信用卡公司更改卡號（可能收取手續費）或停用
　　近期注意檢查是否有不正常交易紀錄
　　（レイ沒有使用信用卡並不是很清楚，建議詢問信用卡公司）
　帳號安全：
　　修改PlayStation Network/Qriocity密碼及登入E-mail
　　修改PlayStation Network/Qriocity密碼安全問題及答案（否則新密碼依然會被取得）
　　若有任何帳號與PlayStation Network/Qriocity相同，檢查密碼、密碼安全問題及答案是否相同

關於入侵時間
Clarifying a Few PSN Points
說明發現入侵時間為04/19

一直覺得在線上使用信用卡交易不太安全…
不過這回主要的問題應該是Sony的系統安全不足
首先系統被入侵，並且敏感資料似乎未經加密
使得入侵者能輕易取得並使用…
再怎麼說密碼最低限度也該做個Hash吧…

Anyway也只能請各位使用者多注意囉…

PSN will be back today?

相信不少玩家都在等待PSN修復
4/20 SQUARE ENIX的遊戲特價
レイ正想去買半價的Trine the lost relic，卻發現PSN進入維修
特價到27日，原本不以為意
結果今天已經25日了…
不少人買了Portal 2想玩玩看PSN上的Steam也只能乾瞪眼
甚至youtube上出現這樣的影片…
Im fighting PlayStation Network hacker(My ps3 is down).
（請屏蔽左右同學家人XD）

PSN從04/20起就主動暫停服務（之前就不太穩定了
根據官方的說法是遭到Hacker（ハッカじゃなく！）入侵
在此之前PSN就曾遭受過DDoS攻擊
相關消息：The FBI Has Issued 40 Arrest Warrants For Anonymous Members
（受採訪的Hacker宣稱DDoS攻擊是種＂和平示威＂）
不過也有傳言與非法利用DLC有關

Fat Princess: All Hail the Fans with Patch 1.04

Note: This kind of articles are for English reading pratice only!

Posted by Deborah Mars
Managing Producer, SCEA Santa Monica Studio

You know what? We love our fans.

We love our fans so much, that we’d like to kick off the New Year with something special just for you.

Tomorrow, January 21, we’ll be releasing Patch 1.04 which now includes a new, FREE city-themed map called Brownie Town.

We’ve also fixed an issue with the online rankings, so now the All-Time and Monthly scores for Team Deathmatch and Invasion have been swapped to post correctly.

PlayStation & VGAs Weekend

First things first: congratulations to Naughty Dog (UNCHARTED 2 won three awards, including Game of the Year), thatgamecompany (Flower took Best Independent Game), and Sony Santa Monica Studios (God of War III is your Most Anticipated Game) for their Video Game Awards wins this weekend.

And thanks go to the 100 PlayStation fans who joined us to celebrate these wins in Hollywood on Saturday evening. It was a truly fun time, and the reaction of the crowd when UNCHARTED 2 claimed Game of the Year/Best PS3 Game/Best Graphics was made all the sweeter by the fact that several Naughty Dogs were there to watch along with us.

Hey everyone! Aaron Webber here again – some of you may remember me from the Valkyria Chronicles 2 blog post a while back. This time, I have the privilege of bringing you guys some more exciting news – news that I know many of you are about to be extremely excited about!

After months upon months of requests, a myriad of rumors, and even full campaigns that speak to the unparalleled dedication of the fans, we can finally speak those words that all of you have been waiting anxiously to hear. So, here they are:

Yakuza 3 is coming West.

Yakura 3 Coming to PS3

Happy 3rd Anniversary PS3 and PlayStation Network!

Posted by Kim Nguyen
Marketing Manager, PLAYSTATION 3

As many of you know, today marks the third anniversary of PS3 and PlayStation Network. It’s amazing to think how far we’ve come in three short years. At launch three years ago, PS3 was a cutting edge gaming console, ushering in the idea of a forward thinking format like Blu-ray that few people had heard of. We were committed to that concept and how it would impact the gaming landscape for the next generation. Today, Blu-ray Disc is the next gen standard media format giving PS3 game developers a larger canvas to create games that continually push the envelope on rich, immersive gaming experiences.
In its infancy, PlayStation Network began as a free service to gamers offering an online commerce option for games and game content. Today, it offers an unrivaled social networking experience in PlayStation Home, a robust video delivery service for purchasing and renting SD and HD content from every major studio, social networking applications like Facebook, instant streaming content from Netflix, and a rich selection of more than 450 games for PS3 and PSP…oh, and yes, it’s still free.
Momentum is going strong and signs are only pointing up for us. In October, we saw a 70 percent increase in PS3 sales over last October. This was fueled by a marketing campaign that many of you have commented on, but also by a new slimmer and lighter form factor with a larger hard-drive for $100 less. We’re seeing hundreds of thousands of you joining the PlayStation family every day, and we welcome you to check out all of the amazing things that PlayStation has to offer.
We are really hitting our stride here and with how far you’ve seen us come in three short years, imagine how far we’ll go with the next three. It all starts with this holiday and blockbusters like UNCHARTED 2 and Ratchet & Clank, and only gets better in Q1 with MAG, Heavy Rain and God of War III.
Really, what I’m here to say is, thanks for all of your support. Without your enthusiasm and feedback, PS3 wouldn’t be what it is today.

It Only Does Blu-ray Movies

Senior Vice President, Marketing & PlayStation Network

Next week’s Thanksgiving holiday marks the kick-off to the traditional retail holiday selling season. It’s a key part of our year as many people who may not be hardcore gamers begin their research for the hottest gift items. Naturally, we expect the PS3 to be on a lot of those lists this year. This holiday’s PS3 campaign marks one of our most aggressive approaches in terms of our advertising reach and frequency, so we hope you’ve seen the new commercials while watching your favorite TV programs. I’ve been receiving a lot of emails from friends and family and hearing from a lot of you who are catching the commercials regularly and laughing even after the third or fourth helping. We couldn’t be more pleased by the overwhelming response, not just to the ads, but also evidenced by the sheer momentum behind our recent sales numbers. I’d like to personally welcome all of the new PS3 owners to what will be one of our best years ahead.
