A titan passes; Sony have officially brought an end to the production and shipping of their PSP Go. Current listings for the troubled handheld on Sony Computer Entertainment Japan?s website make note that the shipment for the product has ended.PSP Go never had an easy life; announced at E3 in 2009 the system was immediately met with negative press thanks to its high price point. Less than two years later and here we are; the system dead and the next Sony handheld, the NGP, on the way.Of course PSP 3000?s are still in production so in no way is the platform as a whole done for. Future sales of the Go however are now limited to what?s left in stock. Mortal Kombat to include Online Pass Mortal Kombat for Xbox 360 and PS3 will include a redeemable code for online play, Joystiq reports http://www.videogamer.com/news/mortal_kombat_to_include_online_pass.html
Well, we have our gaming press reporter Vampy reporting live from WWW (World Wide Web). Yeah, that is too bad the PSPGo didn't do too well and I was going to buy one just for kicks. May be I will get one when is cheap just to fill my need as an MP3 player and load some of my PS1 games from PSN store on the go may be? Indeed NGP (Next Gen Portable; a la PSP2) is a big anticipation for me by year end in 2011 or early first quarter 2012. As well I read online that MS and SONY is thinking of bringing out their next-Gen console by 2014, thus leaving the Wii2 (hopefully support Blu-ray(?) rumor has it) in the wide open from now to before the two gaming titan launches their next best thing.
The Mortal Kombat to include Online Pass, is that true? I haven't bought a copy but now i'm more worried another company wants to charge those that can't afford full price for multi player. Also I don't play on PC but this will effect those that buy games from Steam to right ?

PSN Still Down PSN still offline & sony doesn't give an exact reason why, alot of PSHome junkies going through withdrawal. Could be a few more days before PSN is up & running. Online multi player parts of games left cold, Hmm with things like this happening offline co-op doesn't look like a bad idea to include in todays games now does it? http://www.betanews.com/article/Pla...wn-Anonymous-claims-no-involvement/1303493257
Yeah, indeed it looks like a major withdraw for all of us that relies on PS Network. I, for one has been thru this since last year when my PS3 got the YLOD and for two month I was on my Xbox 360 instead and keep in touch with my closest PS3 friends via email. I am sure everyone caught up with their daily errand etc during this time as PS Network is down.
It's inconvenient for alot of PS3 owners i'm sure. The down time for PSHome doesn't bother me & lack of online multi player is kinda annoying the only thing that gets to me though is not be able to reach alot of my PS3 friends, I have a few by e-mail & other forums but still annoys me i can't chat with the rest.
