Originally a PC game, Diablo was ported to the PSone. If you haven’t played this series you’ve been living under a rock, and seriously need to get caught up. With Diablo 3 releasing this year for PC, it would be a great time for this hack and slash to make it’s way to the PSone section of the Playstation store. The closest thing we have out right now is the excellent Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, check it out!
The problem facing PS3s worldwide today seems to have fixed itself, just as many people hypothesized would happen if it really was a calendar issue.
I booted up my PS3, and my PSone Classics work, along with their saves, PS2 games along with their saves (seeing as my PS3 is a Metal Gear Solid 4 bundle variety) PSN games (Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 checked) and even Heavy Rain was working again.
The ongoing problem with the fat model PS3s is becoming more interesting as the day progresses, now Sony is saying that you should not turn on your PS3s until they’ve solved the problem. Patrick Seybold writing on the Playstation blog believes the engineering team at Sony has identified this problem,
“We believe we have identified that this problem is being caused by a bug in the clock functionality incorporated in the system.”
So, perhaps the bug will solve itself in the next 24 hours, but in the meantime keep your PS3s off because there is a possibility of data corruption.
While playing through the new Heavy Rain exclusive on my 80 gig PS3 this weekend, Sony was tinkering with their website, and apparently with the underlying code with PSN as well. Now many users are reporting that they are getting signed out from the network, and can’t even play some games offline like the Heavy Rain title I’ve been enjoying.
BUT! It gets more interesting, I decided I wanted to play my digital copy of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 that I had bought this past weekend when it was on sale, but it’s reverted it seems to the trial version…. odd….
