In case you haven’t noticed, the chat system currently has a new look, and has also been updated to the latest version. This will actually make it easier for people like me who use the pop-out chat, which didn’t allow you to click a name to send a PM, to be able to do so, as you can now open multiple instances of the chatrooms.

Madagasca, one of our main reviewers from across the pond is also interested in knowing what kinds of things you’d like us to change/cover in reviews, so if you have any input on that, be sure to respond here.

Over the past 4 weeks, we’ve also gotten some new, hidden site trophies, as well as a referral system for those who want to earn points for inviting friends.

Ace also gave us a countdown to E3, and a list of confirmed games to be at the show, so if you want to check that out before the event officially kicks off tomorrow, check it out here.

We did have one contest/giveaway over the past month, and that was for a Roxio game capture unit (thanks to Roxio for providing us with a review unit, as well as a unit to give away). Congratulations goes out to jwhyrock for winning that one!

Though currently we don’t have a game night set up or going on, I still plan on having a GT5 tournament, so know that I still haven’t forgotten about that!

We did have a Game Night for Uncharted 2 on the Uncharted 2 Game Night | May 26th”>26th of May, as well as an impromptu one on the 27th, which I guess was also abruptly canceled due to a blu-ray drive failure on Tosh’s part. That sucks.

Do you (Your Name Here) take the PlayStation as your lawfully…

This poll was live for quite some time, and has garnered a lot of votes during that period. Going by the results, we don’t have too many responsible people. In fact, people with 360s who only came on here to troll the site exceeded the number of people who actually took the time to study or to even go outside. The true dominating force is all of those people who spent that PSN downtime to collect trophies. Those who haven’t been doing much gaming weren’t really trailing that far behind, though, but since that exceeded studying and going outside (and discovering life), I could only assume that those people stared at a blank TV screen until PSN resumed service (or have been watching the newest episodes of fine TV programming like River Monsters and Swamp People).

And then there’s the folks who didn’t even know PSN had an outage.

With E3 happening this week, the current poll focuses on that and what you want to see announced or what games you hope there is a focus on. Remember, you can also add answers!
