Playstation Network goes live on 11/11 (...in Japan)

PS Network


Instead of opening this article by complaining how Japan always gets things ahead of everyone else, let's look on the bright side... [hesitates] Oh, snaps. Is there even a bright side? Bah. Anyways, yeah, complain all you want, Sony's PlayStation Network will go live in Japan on November 11. This will open up those nifty little features (chatting, friends lists, web browsing, etc.) and arcade games that will be available for download. Among the games that will be available would include:
More than this, there's going to be a couple of games that you'd be able to download (and transfer) into your PSP. Although these games won't be playable on the PS3, it'll only be a matter of time before they release an update to make these classics compatible on the next-gen console. Here's the line-up:
  • Biohazard Director's Cut
  • Konami Antics MSX Collection of Vol. 1
  • Konami Antics MSX Collection of Vol. 2
  • Bishi Bashi Special
  • Arc The Lad
  • Jumping Flash!
  • Everybody's Golf 2
  • Silent bomber
  • Tekken 2
  • Mr. Driller
Oh hey! Now we've got it! The bright side is... [drumroll] even if the PlayStation Network were to go online on November 11 (which is just a few days before the 17th anyways), what use would it be for the U.S., much less Europe?! See? There's always a bright side...

I don't understand what you're *****ing about. The PS3 launches in Japan on the 11th, so wouldn't it make sense for them to get the Playstation Network on launch day?

How would this even impact XBL? All Sony fanboys are still holding out for there beloved Sony product. So its no lost profits to MS. Do you think Xbox owners will jump ship becasue Sony Copied XBL?
