A wide rash of game-crashing errors is spreading among the PS3-owning community at the moment, most of which can be chalked up to a 8001050F error code. This has led to a variety of unfortunate side-effects for those affected, including corrupted trophy information and an inability to access the PSN. When combined, those two issues prevent players from launching certain games, such as Heavy Rain , without being kicked back to the XMB. We’ve contacted Sony to find out what’s causing the issue, and when we can expect to get back to chasing down the Origami Killer. He might just be able to make a clean getaway while we suffer through this downtime. Update: Sony has acknowledged the issue, and is ” looking into it. ” We’ve yet to hear an official word on what the problem is, though it seems to be a bit larger than just the PSN.

Google continues to get better at narrowing search results based on your location. First, they implemented the ” near me now ” search option for Google Mobile and Android, and now they’re bringing location-based results to the desktop. If you pop open the search options panel on Google.com, you can choose “nearby,” and Google will return only results from your general geographic area. At worst, this saves you the trouble of adding the name of your city to your search queries. At best, it shows you useful results you might not have seen if you put in just your city name. I take it for granted that I live in a major metropolitan, but what about people in small towns, who might want to search the whole region? Google’s got them covered, too, because you can search by city, region, or state. Very nice! Share Источник: www.pheedcontent.com , получено с помощью rss-farm.ru

What if Heavy Rain , which is so often heralded by creator David Cage as “interactive fiction,” was just a bit less interactive ? Is the game’s story and cast of vaguely-French-sounding characters strong enough to carry a feature-length film? We might just find out, some day — internet super-sleuth superannuation recently uncovered copyright documents which reveal that New Line Productions optioned the rights to turn Heavy Rain into a movie on May 15, 2006 — just a few days after “The Casting” trailer (NSFW) was revealed at E3. This doesn’t ensure the development of a Heavy Rain movie, of course; it only means if any film studio makes the film, it’s going to be New Line Cinema. We think the rights are in good hands — New Line did some great work on the film adaptations of those Lord of the Rings games. Источник: www.joystiq.com , получено с помощью rss-farm.ru
