Final Fantasy XIV beta kicks-off on March 11
Final Fantasy XIV beta? Yeah, we already tried that when it was called Final Fantasy XI.
We kid, we kid. We hope. If you’d like to take an early peek for yourself at how Square Enix has improved on its tried-and-true MMO formula, though, you need only wait until March 11.

PSN experiences total blackout, causes some offline games to stop working [Update 2]
Update: Sounds like the PSN outage’s only part of the problem. PS3s that haven’t suckled at the Internet’s bounteous teat for years are reverting their clocks to 12/31/1999 for some reason. If we didn’t know about Sony’s strict no-mad-scientist policy, we’d swear this was part of some larger conspiracy. Thanks, Joystiq and lindblum_resident.
Update 2: SCEA’s said in a seperate blog post on the US PS Blog that it has “narrowed down the issue and have engineers working to restore service even as you read this”.
Original: Occasionally, when an Internet connection drops, you might hear someone ask “who shut-off the Internet?” Well, that entire notion’s ridiculous. You can’t just yank the cord on the entire Internet.
PSN, however, is another story.
