Well, it wouldn’t be a PS3 launch if there wasn’t a massive online mishap, now would it? Reports are coming in that the Cerberus Network for the recently released PS3 version of Mass Effect 2 has gone dark. This means you may have the game in hand (if you’re in North America), but you won’t be able to avail of the Mass Effect Genesis comic as – you’ve guessed it – the graphic novel requires the Cerberus Network to be up and running.
More details can be found over at this hilarious EA support conversation.
As seen in the chat, the issue is expected to be resolved in the next 24-48 hours. So, should be okay for us Old Worlders when it releases over on this side of the pond on the 21st.

With Killzone3 and LBP2 being released right about now I think I might wait at least a few months before I pick this up. I really bet that after all the butthurt sony has had with PS3/PSN online they won’t miss a trick with PS4.

Question is, will the PS4 be Geohot proof?
Also, here is my idea for the PS4:

I remember the PC version having similar issues at launch. Not exactly SONYs fault dudes.

18th in NA, and we have lots of readers from the New World so this is more for them.
I’ve added a couple of lines to the article just in case people are freaking out.
