you mean 10 things female gamers should do:/cuz men wouldnt' be doing all these stuff, except for those geek ss fanboys with cats.
# Watch a movie you know well, and use your controller while it plays to mimic the characters’ on-screen actions. (It’s just like Heavy Rain.)LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Be glad it’s at least not a red-ringed 360. Oh snap. ;)
How do you send gift to people on Playstation Home?
I've been doing 9 all day. I'm waiting for an update at midnight. Please let it work!!
How about rock back and forth muttering to yourself in the corner? Rebuild it to make it stronger, better, faster? :P
the internet still works on your ps3, i know this because i updated a game this morning, so if there is a firmware patch to fix this, you dont need to worry about how your going to get it. hope this stops at least a little bit of the worry :)
Bru00c3u00bctal Legend is still working! but i'm worried that my trophies will disappear....
How long do we have I beat Mercenaries 2 and none of my trophies went though! Then when I try to go back to the game it's like it never happened! But I've been watching movie ever since so what ever!
Sorry, didn't know that the situation was so bad that you can't even play offline.
you can still play single player games, can't you?
Not if said single-player game has trophies. As far as we can tell.

i slept for a good 5 or 6 hours just woke up....still no system...luckly sony said the prob shoud be fixed by the morning so im about to go to sleep again till lik 8 or 9...play a few hours before i gotta go to bio class lol
Play Mass Effect 2 (just got it)
Play AvP (360 version)
Play on my PC, man i love having all systems insert evil laugh here >:P

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OUCH low blow at heavy rain. Totally uncalled for....therefore....s***w YOU!
You're acting like I don't have it and love it! It wasn't intended to be a low blow at all. I think you're looking at my analysis the wrong way.
you can play games without trophies like MGS4
Ahh.. Good call. I think lack of sleep and withdraw from the PS3 is getting to me. Maybe I should just go to bed and stop waiting for the magic to happen...
btw we're watching Dexter on Netflix streaming to pass the time. haha
So... They are saying its a problem with the older model PS3's (not slim). It has something to do with the firm ware on the older models. So my question is... If they do get the fix up on the net, how are we going to connect to the net to get the fix, if its a problem with the PS3 itself and not the Playstation Network?
My guess is they will have something we'll have to download to a usb key or maybe something like a "bootable disc" that will allow the PS3 to boot to it and upgrade the firmware?
I think it's a two-sided problem, meself. I think eventually PSN will be up, and we can connect for the update. I guess we'll see in a few hours.
This is an interesting link from NeoGaf as to what they think is happening: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=20035879&postcount=1675
Yeah, I saw that. Wasn't sure how to work it in, really. And it is an interesting theory.
To pass the time... looking after a pissed up friend and watching a film. good times
hahaha im actually doing 8 and 9 is genius.. im watching Rome on bluray and migrating stuff to a new pc
10 also gave me some lols as well
To pass the time? I was in the PS Home Theatre watching previews for awhile, and now I'm playing Grandia. :)
Good thing we have all the consoles in our house! We are watching Doctor Who on Netflix streaming via one of our 360s right now. I hardly touch my PS3 as it is, so its not like I'm missing much.
We're just watching Adult Swim until the ApocalyPS3 is over.
Whats weird is i can sign onto my playstation network account directly on playstation.com. All my trophies are there. I have the fat model of the PS3. I guess its basically limited to them:-( Maybe since it was Sony's fault they killed our systems, and if they cant fix it... Just maybe they will replace them with a newer model?? Do I hear the lawyers??
I highly doubt it'll be enough of a problem to cause mass replacements. Your data's fine, you just need a patch, probably. Once the network comes back up, anyway.
No MW2... *ish a sad panda* I guess I'll play BlazBlue or Uncharted 2 or something... Yay for single player campaigns!
I think it doesn't matter how many players it is. That's the thing. As long as it has trophies, there's no playing it.
Just wanted to point out the irony of your 10th statement, considering that I can still play my games. Good luck with that.
Yeah, but ours will be fixed in a matter of hours rather than having to ship it off in a coffin. I have a 360 as well, but it doesn't get the same amount of love. This is a software problem, not a hardware problem. At least ours turn on right now, unlike RROD'd 360s.
Also, I tried more stuff, and I can get to a lot more than just Bejeweled 2. But I don't want to play any of those. Oh well! It'll be fixed in the mornin'. :D

ugh but mine went out when my nba crew needed me its been 4hours, *stairs at GH5*
Sounds like Step 8 is for you, friend.
Be glad itu00e2u0080u0099s at least not a red-ringed 360.
Oh snap. ;)
Haha. If it is, you have a couple weeks to wait, not a few hours - ya know? ;)
haha I love #10. But seriously I actually was going to play tonight and am kindof bummed that I can't. But it's allowing me time to write on GA. haha I'm prepping an article for tomorrow! hehe
I know, right? It's not the end of the world or anything. It will be fixed. We will live. But it sure is annoying. Even though I'm definitely not supposed to be playing right now. :x
