"It’s been a great week for gamers on the PSN. We’ve seen the addition of the anime streaming service Crunchyroll to the PS3 lineup of video apps, the highly anticipated game Sound Shapes being made available for preorder through the PSN PLAY event at a 20% discount for PlayStation Plus subscribers, and The Expendables 2: The Videogame releasing on the PlayStation Store now (check out the demo to get a taste of this game’s explosive four-player co-op action!)

I don't mind, i'll probably be asleep.

[TekoIie]

It appears that many think you will not be asleep :3

[Reverent]

Of course he won't be sleeping. Pssh, who sleeps these days? Not me, no sir.

[Lockon]

@Reverent I guess you dont have a job?

[Reverent]

Christ, does no one understand sarcasm these days? Obviously not if you look at both Rikuson1's and my disagrees... I mean really, shouldn't you have been able to guess I WAS being sarcastic? Seriously..

[WeskerChildReborned]

ANOTHER MAINTENANCE? C'MON SONY! THIS IS WHY XBOX IS BETTER! "don't you hate those comments.." U_U

[TheGOODKyle]

Yes because a company takes a few hours to keep their service operational makes their console a lesser one.

[Reverent]

I think he meant that he hates comments "like" that...

i love how people criticized the playstation for not having much care on maintanence, it was a fail, now that it finally getting them its still a fail. come on people jesus, xbox what it does a few tweaks of 3 to 5 mb per update or maintanence, pretty much also sony has SOE has an mmo running what more can you ask these guys are throwing you games everywhere lol. be happy jesus i miss ps2 days

[D3mons0ul]

But what about all the methheads out there? They won't be able to get their game on :(

[BigDog55]
