| Check out this little wonder
Apparently the internal clocks aren't talking to each other and one is a day behind the other so it buggers everything up.
Personally I have to laugh, as this leaves my apparently pathetic wii as the only current console not to shit itself and died on mass, of course the PS3 manages to one up the 360 by having them all do it at the same time, well done lads. |

| That freaked me out when I turned on my PS3 earlier to see a message saying it wouldn't download the trophies. I thought it was just my PS3 until I went online and saw that all of them, except the PS3 Slims, aren't working. It's even a Trending Topic on Twitter. I just want to play my games.

| If anything, this just further proves that | Spoiler: | | | PS3 HAS NO GAEMS |
Enjoy your expensive paperweight. |

| Just over an hour or so, and I'll tell you if the "Let's just wait untill tomorrow" thing works...
I can other people whom I cannot personaly guarentee also confirm that removing the battery from the back-end of your PS3 also fixes the problem.
Word to the wise: DO NOT DO THAT! GAMES ARE NOT WORTH IT!!

Yeah, voids the warranty, which is bad. |

Neither have I. I got so distracted doing other gamey stuff (beat up Monster A to get weapon to beat up Monster B. Get item off Monster B that allows you to beat up Monster C. After a zillion attempts, get item off Monster C... and so on) that I don't really care about the plot. It got a bit silly at the point where a boss battle consisted of me strolling round the room after him while poking him occasionally in the arse with a spear, and the whole thing was made even more wrong by the identity of the two characters involved. |

I was in the middle of doing sidequests I think - mostly doing the bounty thing. I kept getting killed by the monsters in the lower level of the big tower looking for Ixion because grinding for more levels is too tedious and annoying. D: |

| Oh good, my trophies are all there. My Dragon Age ones disappeared, so I was worried. |

No, I'm a Wii owner who is sick of the 360 and PS3 crowds looking down on him for getting the 'casual' console, watching all the PS3 owners run around in a blind panic for 24 hours was bliss to me.
If you can honestly say that I'm wrong for feeling smug when all the dicks who look down on the only machine of this generation NOT to have shat itself and died during it's run, on mass or otherwise, are panicking about there bloody achievement logs then you are a lying lier who lies. |

| Trying real hard to stifle my Wii fangirlism right now (Wiibrew's where it's at, mofuckas).
Why the fuck does the system clock thinks it's a leap year? |
