The PSN Scare

So did any of you close your credit cards after what happened?

No, mostly cuz it's a debit card will basically no money at all on it. Although, I think I used my old card that expired last year so no biggie for me. I'm not too worried about it anyway, I doubt out of 77 million users I would get money stolen from. It pays having little money in the bank and most of it at home where I know it's safe

Nope.

I freaked out a bit at first, but now I'm not too worried about it. Everyone that works at my Credit Union (including my mother, who checks my account info occasionally to check for these sort of things) pretty much know what to look for when it comes to stolen debit cards. If anything suspicious happens with my account, I'll know pretty damn quick.

Haha I don't have a credit card. I've always just used PSN pre-paid cards so I'm in the clear. I think.

yeah, you're fine...they can't hack used PSN cards lol

So what games have you guys been playing during this PSN outtage?

Started playing half life 2 a few days ago for the first time, it's a really awesome game. I'm probably going to finish episode 1 and 2 as well before I get back online. Played portal 2 single player and co op, and played some final fantasy 4, but didn't get very far.

I've been in the training room mostly in MK and SF. I've also been watching movies with all this time offline. I'm sooo hyped to play online with you guys again! We have to do a tourney or endless to get our skills back on track!

I, too, am excited to get back online. I'm glad you guys play a variety of characters, will be good for re-learning matchups.

I've been sad lately, I miss you guys
Missing people I've never met...yeah, I'm an emotional guy lol

Poor Mince. Probably been crying every time he looks at his PS3...j/k

I do! Yes i've been playing on my xbox but I really need matches with you guys! I've lost all skill and I need to get ready for EVO!

I played through Portal 2, Yakuza 3, got raised a league up in Starcraft 2, started MK9... thats about all.

I've been missing playing yall too.

Psn's still not up. CURSES!

I thought everything was supposed to be up today or something. Sigh, guess I'll have to do something dumb like go outside and play sports

What is sports?

It's like video games with the added bonus of cancerous UV radiation.

oh no! the sport of sitting in front of a microwave to watch my popcorn pop is killing me!

What the fuck PSN

Is it up yet? I heard a rumor it was supposed to be up by now

It's not but if you ever want to know check this link:

It has a live status update lol. Saves time having to check blogs or on the PS3.

Side note...I'm really getting antsy waiting for it to come back lol. I need to fight someone!!!!! My friends aren't a challenge at all

only 15 days? Feels like a month

good link, thanks!
same here BB, my friend came over the other day and was like "Oh SF! I played that when I was younger and was pretty good." I played him, he picked Ken and just did Jump HK, sweep...nearly the entire time lmao
It feels like forever Fei!

Yeah...

That's how my cousin was before I bought him a stick in made him practice. Though, he admittedly had no prior FG experience besides Soul Calibur.

Mine was pretty limited, the last 2d games I'd played regularly were KoF on Xbox (NeoWave or some shit), and SF3 & SFA3 on dreamcast.

I played MK with my friends, they were just mashing away like no tomorrow...no blocking or nothing. I played a few times and destroyed them...They want me to bring MVC3 now so they can mash in that. I'll admit tho, its so much fun playing them.
