If you’ve been playing the downloadable FPS Breach from Atomic Games you may have noticed a pretty game breaking lag bug. Luckily, the developer has come forth today to announce that a new patch for the PC version is available for download and looks to completely fix these lag issues. Also included in the patch is a myriad of bug fixes that will correct errors found in both the Sole Survivor and Retrieval game modes.
On a happier note, Atomic Games also tells us that the patch will allow Dedicated Servers to run without requiring a Steam client to be running alongside some new confirmable options for said Dedicated Servers.
If you’ve got Steam you can grab the patch now and check out the official change-log in the press release after the break. READ ON »
If you have one of the older PS3s you probably know that it has been suffering from some technical difficulties. Technical difficulties in the sense that gamers have been unable to connect to the Playstation Network. Luckily, Sony has said that the problem lies with a bug in the clock functionality and it will be fixed within 24 hours.
What’s even worse is Sony has said that those experiencing the problem should not use their console until the problem is fixed because it could interfere with game saves.

Players have been reporting several issues since updating to the current 3.0 firmware for the PlayStation 3. Problems range from DualShock 3 controllers not functioning correctly, inability to access trophies, and even game freezing. No fix for these technical problems have been detailed yet, however, Sony has responded to the issues:
SCEA is aware of reports that PS3 owners are experiencing isolated issues with their PS3 system since installing the most recent system software update (v3.00). Rest assured that we are looking into the matter and will provide an update here as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience, as it’s our mission to deliver the best consumer experience on all PlayStation platforms.
It’s not much, but at least we are assured that they are trying to do something about it. Many players have not been seeing any problems at all, so if you’re fortunate enough to be one of those people, congratulations.

There’s nothing that I hate more than games that force you to watch their opening cinematics. Yeah I know, it’s an attempt by the developers to engage players into the storyline but more often then not I just want to dive into the action.
Luckily, Killzone 2 was not one of these games, until recently that is. Reports have surfaced that after downloading a recently released patch, the introductory movie could not be skipped no matter how many buttons you press. Is this just an evil joke by Guerilla? Nope, after contacted by Destructoid they released the following statement:
We’ve had many reports of this. The QA team is aware of it and looking for a fix.
Let’s hope a fix comes sooner than later because I’m sure there are players out there who have been tempted to send their controller flying at their TV screen after being forced to watch the intro for the 50th time.
