IGN (94/100): A brilliant shooter that nudges the entire genre forward with innovations in both storytelling and gameplay. It trips over itself in a couple of spots, but not in any way that should keep you from embracing it with your utmost enthusiasm.

More reviews later.

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Studio Ghibli First Game For PS3

Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, is a tale of a young boy named Oliver who embarks on a journey into a parallel world to bring his mother back from the dead. Along the way, Oliver makes friends and adopts many of the incredible creatures that live in the world, raising them to battle other creatures with him as he takes on threatening enemies. Developed by LEVEL-5 with animation by the Studio Ghibli, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch combines unique animated visuals, signature storytelling and a sweeping score into an epic role-playing adventure.

Buy from PlayAsia for $59.90 (PS3)

IGN (94/100): One of the best RPGs I’ve played in years…a beautiful mixture of the traditional makings of a JRPG combined with gorgeous graphics, a wonderful story, a great cast of characters and thoughtful gameplay.

GameTrailers (93/100): If you have any sort of appreciation for a great RPG, look no further than Ni no Kuni.

Joystiq (90/100): Maybe all that beauty would be undermined by the low-key narrative if the combat wasn’t as deep. It’s why this collaboration between Level-5 and Studio Ghibli works. One without the other might have been good, but together they’ve created a superb role-playing game for this generation to savor.

EuroGamer (90/100): It’s a world where pretty fantasy archetypes clothe heartfelt domestic drama, and where outlandish cartoon creations sit at the heart of an engrossing game, infusing it with their exotic charm. Ni no Kuni wears its Studio Ghibli inheritance as lightly as Oliver does his little red magician’s cloak, transporting us from one universe to another with the wave of a wand.

United Kingdom authorities have fined Sony $396K for a widespread 2011 PlayStation Network data breach, a breach that could have been prevented.

From Sony’s Kaz Hirai regarding the PSN hack:

Following a criminal cyberattack on the company’s data-center located in San Diego, California, U.S.A., Sony Network Entertainment International quickly turned off the PlayStation Network and Qriocity services, engaged multiple expert information security firms over the course of several days and conducted an extensive audit of the system. The intrusion was discovered between April 17 and 19, and the PlayStation Network was taken down on April 20. On April 26, Sony notified the owners of 10 million accounts that their personal information, potentially including credit card information, had been compromised in the attack.
