Finally, you should be able to turn on your PS3 today and shoot some faces online in Call of Duty 4 without any friggin' error message ruining the fun, as Infinity Ward has fixed the servers.
The game's online mode has been fraught with problems since release, first with a complete online failure when the servers were apparently "slammed" by legions of players, then further issues again yesterday, coincidentally just after Sony released PS3 firmware 2.01.
But everything should be fine now, as Infinity Ward's community relations manager, Robert Bowling, confirmed today: "You should no longer be receiving this error message or any other issues related to the firmware update in the game."
He added: "Thank you to everyone for giving us the heads up on this so we could start tracking down answers, and getting it resolved and please let us know if you have any additional issues."
We're sure you will.

Sony CEO Howard Stringer has said that he is confident of the PlayStation 3's current sales performance, comparing the momentum of the new console to that of the early days of the PlayStation 2.
"The momentum shift and the energy behind PS3 in time for Christmas is extremely fortuitous," said Stringer in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
"It was planned by the PlayStation group, but I think this momentum now – particularly the number of games coming out, including our own as well as third-party – is the same as it was with PlayStation 2," he said.
Stringer dismissed the suggestion that the PlayStation 3 is taking longer to establish itself with the development community, saying that creating for a brand new format simply takes time.
"[The PS3 is] not behind the curve compared to PlayStation 2 in terms of momentum.
"The amount of bandwidth and the processing power of Cell gives game manufacturers a lot more work to do to use this system to its full benefit – and it's taken a while to do it. The same was true of the PlayStation 2," he added.

Gabest has released a new version of the Graphics Plugin for PCsx2:
Thanks for the memcards, now I could walk around in ffxii a bit, almost everything is right. The shading at the top of the on-screen menu (attack, items, etc.) is somewhat broken, might be an unsupported effect.

Pana has just released an original application called "PSP Trafico Test" (PSP Driving Licence translated into English). Its a LUA coded appz that doesnt require LUA Player (but for the moment, this is no PSP Slim compatible).
Using this Homebrew, we will be able to make some tests, in order to get Driving Licence in Spain. We even can use the integrated chronometer to check if we can answer the 40 questions in time (oficial exam must be answered in half an hour).
Very usefull if you are planning to come to Spain to live in  . Also, it could be usefull to practise this language, or even to give an idea to a bored coder (an English coder could make something similar).
Controls
- Square - Selects option A.
- X - Selects option B.
- O - Selects option C.
Enjoy!

More on the subject this time from Engadget
The online Playstation Store for the PSP just quietly went live on our side of the world with two downloadable PSP titles, 16 PSone titles, and a handful of themes, wallpapers, and videos. Wipeout Pure and Syphon Filter: Combat Ops are the first two $10 PSP games out of the gate, and highlights of the PSone list include Twisted Metal 2, Crash Bandicoot, and Tekken 2, all for $6. The store requires the download of a Windows-only loader app to transfer files to your PSP -- and now, after waiting all this time for PS3-free downloads, we're kinda wondering why we can't sync up over WiFi. Eh, don't let our grumpy whining bother you -- go get your game on and let us know how things are working for you in comments.

ChickenLiver has updated his Pad Plugin for the PS2 Emulator PCSX2:
Heres whats new:
The addition of the vibration test and my fix for the small motor makes it obvious I'd been flipping the small and large motors' vibration values. 0.8.2 fixes that. Should probably have tested it more from the start, but I'm not a big fan of vibration, in general (Just think supporting it is nifty). Sorry for all the releases. Hope this is the last for a while...Until someone discovers a bug or suggests a nifty feature, at least.
0.8.1
Fixed newly bound force feedback devices initially displaying 0 sensitivity.
Added "Test FF" button.
0.8.0
Added option to allow multiple bindings to a single direct input object (Doesn´t work with windows messaging or raw input. Does allow you to configure multiple force feedback axes independently).
Fixed key release event. Thought event=0 was key up, 1 was key down, but 2 is actually key down. Only seems to matter when navigating through save states. Notice that SSSPSX makes the same assumption I do. This is what happens when plugin specifications are incomplete. Smile
Right shift sent to PCSX2 as a generic shift when using an input mode that distinguishes between the two shift keys.
Fixed bug that would cause LilyPad to ignore slight movements of analog axes.
64-bit dll fixed. No longer fails to load, complaining about being unable to find MSVCR80.dll.
Removed a couple older pretty ineffective hacks that had been aimed at increasing stability when pausing emulation. Note that there are not the hacks listed on the first configuration screen.
Changed center for analog sticks from 127 to 128. Not sure which is correct, or if it´s actually in between, but other pads plugins all seem to use 128. Shouldn´t make any noticeable difference.
Modified handling of some PS2 pad configuration commands. May now work in some games that didn´t recognize it as a dualshock 2 controller (Or as any controller).
Fixed issue with not saving some settings on the general screen to file.
Added simple but nasty hack to prevent potential crash when quitting by closing the command window while the emulator is still running. Issue was that I was trying to cleanup my DirectInput objects when the dll unloaded, and (Apparently) the DirectInput dlls had already been unloaded.
Added PADupdate() support. If the emulator supports it, DirectInput controller state is only checked when it´s called. Note that this may reduces responsiveness when frame rate drops to almost nothing. Or it may not. Could also introduce some threading issues (In particular with vibration), though I haven´t run into any yet.
Added option for monitoring game devices when in the background. Mostly added because I always forget to refocus the emulator window after changing to another window.
Fixed handling of mouse buttons 4 and 5 under Windows messaging.
Escape will now always cause emulator to stop (Even when keyboard mode is disabled). Wasn´t working under Windows messaging mode.
Raw input keyboard mode should no longer cause it to crash.
Mouse cursor not being hidden in Windows messaging mode fixed.
Dropped SIO support. Even if the PAD functions are supposedly depricated, doesn´t look like SIO will be used by PCSX2 any time soon.
Will save general settings for pads 1 and 2 even when no controls are configured for that pad.
DirectInput devices are a bit more responsive when binding them in the config screen.

Best Buy has responded to Internet reports that, despite midnight openings across the US, the retailer did not receive its anticipated shipments of EA's Rock Band.
"Best Buy tries to ensure that all customers can get the products they want in our stores. Sometimes situations beyond our control such as shipping and freight issues can make it difficult for a customer to obtain what they are looking for," Best Buy's Emily Schroeder told GamesIndustry.biz.
Schroeder confirmed that many Best Buy locations did not receive the anticipated shipments in time for midnight openings or for Tuesday morning sales.
"We have been working with the vendor and shipping companies to remedy this situation for our customers and expect to receive shipments on Tuesday, November 20 and Wednesday, November 21," she said.
During a conference call to investors earlier this month, EA's CEO John Riccitiello anticipated Rock Band supply problems, noting that EA won't initially be able to produce enough supply to meet the expected demand.

News/release from Bumuckl & Team Nitr0core:
Bumuckl & Team Nitr0core proudly present: Motion Pong 0.1 xD
Motion Pong actually has been developed for the "Neoflash PSP Motion Kit".
It is a simple pong-game. The difference to other pong-games are the controls.You do not move the paddle with any keys, you just move it via the Motion Kit.That means you can move the paddle by tilting your PSP.
Attention: The Paddle-bot is extremely hard to defeat...it is possible, but extremely hard!Maybe I've to fix that...
There are two versions, the Motion Kit one and the psp-keys one.
That means, the guys that do not have a Motion Kit can play as well^^...

News from Benhur:
Here's a simple solution to use (all of) the genuine PSP fonts:
It features the stuff you see above plus: variable size glyph cache, pre-caching, fast speed (as little as 35ms initial loadtime per font; up to 100,000 chars/sec), low memory requirements (as little as 66kB per font) and no dependencies (e.g. freetype).
Download: http://www.psp-programming.com/benhur
The archive contains samples for GU and graphics.h - just look at them to see how to use intraFont and read the readme.
(If you used pgeFont by InsertWittyName ( http://insomniac.0x89.org) before: you'll feel right at home since intraFont uses parts of pgeFont - but intraFont doesn't need the freetype library!)
Let me know what you think and have fun!

Dynasty Warriors 6, the latest in the brawler series that, for some strange reason, seems to have gamers in the Far East going bananas for it, will be out in British stores from March 7 for 360 and PS3.
DW6 sticks to the same formula of previous games of the series - you run around fields in an ancient China setting and batter the snot out of swarm after swarm of enemy guards.
Koei says that a new graphics engine makes this "by far the most impressive looking Dynasty Warriors yet," not that Dynasty Warriors has ever struck as being particularly pretty.
We've got 12 new screens below anyway, so you can decide for yourself.

Today's 2.01 PS3 firmware update was released solely to fix instability issues on the console, but it's suspected it may have done the complete opposite for Activision's best-FPS-on-the-platform shooter, Call of Duty 4.
Dozens of angry gamers have hit the official forums to report that, since updating their PS3s this morning, they have been unable to play the online mode in the game. They obviously blame Sony's new firmware.
Some users, however, say they managed around two hours of play after updating before the errors began to occur. So is the FW update at fault? Or something else? CoD 4 servers have been annoyingly temperamental over the past few days...
We spoke with both Sony and Activision, both seemingly oblivious to the problem, but we hope to update with their feedback soon.
Meanwhile, our office PS3, running the new 2.01 firmware, is playing CoD 4 online as normal. It took around 10 minutes to log on (which is still not good), but it's working just fine now.
[Thanks to the friendly reader (we'll guess your name's Dave) for the tip]

SEGA Europe has offered no comment over reports that a remake of Saturn game NiGHTS: Into Dreams is heading to PS2 early next year.
Word spilled originally from Japanese magazine Famitsu (translated by IGN), which said the iconic title would be getting 16:9 support and upgraded visuals, as well as an illustration gallery and movie viewer.
Apparently the game is set to launch in Japan on 21st February 2008, and it will also be introduced at a budget price point - alongside a Nightopia Dream Pack that has the all important picture book inside.
Whether SEGA Europe's silence suggests it is a Japan-only offer is unclear, but we expect more to become clear as we get close to Wii game NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams release in January.
