Well they have the Stone Cold Steve Austin DLC and we have nothing..
For this once I thank myself for not being addicted into WWE... (anymore)

They should've put the DLC for 2009 edition already! (I mean the great wrestles. Vader? W-what? Trish Stratus, The Rock, Stone Cold... you know all these.) Damn! Mad

Ah, whatever. I haven't personally interested in any of the titles the company has (yet to get) produced.

Yup, PlayStation 3 and PSN are having big trouble.

http://www.seasonedgamers.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=71302

It seems that the clock inside the PS3 has gone back to 2000, causing some sort of a time paradox. The real clock (not the adjustable one) inside PS3 has caused any DLC, Trophies, Store content among other stuff to not work. I mean, how can you play a game (or console) that wasn't made years before it really was?

If you haven't booted up PS3 today, don't do it. Wait for Sony to inform us first.

I tried to sign in today and it didn't work so I turned off my ps3. It has been confirmed that the slim ps3-s weren't affected and the last reply from Sony was 13 hours ago. I'm starting to get worried..
