Playstation Store to be Restored by End of the Week

     Many Playstation Network users are rejoicing over the announced return of the Playstation Store. For those of you who do not know what the Playstation Store is, allow me to take some time to introduce you to this feature.

     The Playstation Store, or PS Store as it can be stated more easily, is an online component provided to registered members of the Playstation Network. The PS Store allows PSN members to download and stream a large variety of content to and from their Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable (PSP) Handhelds. Sony's PS Store offers the PSN users downloadable content; Such as Game Demos, Trailers, Full Movies, Full TV Shows, Downloadable Content (DLC), Full Games, Music, and much more.

     Over one month ago the Playstation Network was hacked by an outside force (evidence points to Hacking Group Anonymous) and in protective action Sony shutdown the entire Playstation Network. On May 14th, 2011 Sony restored some, but not all, of the Playstation Network features. Features like Online Multiplayer and Playstation Home were restored, but the Store was not in line, or even scheduled for a restoration time. Now over a month after the PSN was shutdown, the Official PS Blog has announced that all of the features of the PSN will be restored by the end of this week. Hopefully Sony is able to fulfill this goal, because I myself have a ten dollar Playstation Store Redeem code that needs spending.

      Sony announced a "Welcome Back Program" not too long ago for users of the Playstation Network. Some features of this program have been announced, such as one free month of Playstation Plus, discounted PS Store downloads, some sort of free Movie Rental weekend, and hopefully a whole lot more cool stuff. It is beginning to look as if times are beginning to appear a whole lot brighter for us Playstation users.

Gotham City Impostors Combines FPS with Superheroes

     How incredible is this? Gotham City Impostors appears to have all the elements of a classic First Person Shooter combined with all the fun and unpredictability of the the heroes and villains of Gotham City.      Basically, the entire plot of this game is "When Batman is away, Impostors will play." Their are two teams that are dedicated to battling out by all means necessary. The Batman impostors who dress up as closely as they can to the caped crusader, look completely unprofessional. They are not what you would expect Batman to look like, but that is the entire point of this game. On the other team lies the maniacal Joker impostors who make themselves useful by going on insane rants when the real Batman is busy.      Gotham City Impostors is an all multiplayer game and will be available for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC in  early 2012. This game will be download only, so if you are interested you might want to have a way...
