Sony Talks About PS Vita’s Lack of E3 Presence

In a revealing interview with Develop Online, Sony Worldwide Studios’ President Shuhei Yoshida admitted that Sony may have made an error at E3 by not concentrating more on the PlayStation Vita.

When asked if he was “happy with the Vita’s first showing at E3,” Yoshida answered that he “got lots of Tweets” to his Twitter account noting that people wanted to see more Vita games. “In retrospect,” he admitted, “we should’ve spent more time showing and talking about PS Vita titles.”

He notes that there were 25 Vita games playable on the floor, and there were indeed some games to look forward to. The likes of Snapshot, Sine Mora, Sunflowers, New Little King Story and Zen Pinball 2 all looked promising. But they weren’t mentioned at the press conference due to Sony trying to keep it shorter this year, attempting to stray away from the longer press conferences Yoshida says Sony is “notorious” for doing.

Still, he admits that “from the perspective of people who are waiting for more information on Vita titles, we weren’t able to provide that.”

Diablo III game-breaking bug found

Gamers have found a game-breaking bug in Blizzard Entertainment's just-released Diablo III. The issue triggers Error 3006, which boots users from Diablo III servers and prohibits them from logging back in, according to reports on the Battle.net forums.

Evil has returned…in the form of a game-breaking bug.

As detailed on Blizzard's Diablo III known issue page, while playing a Demon Hunter, players who equip a shield to a Templar follower run the risk of being disconnected from the game's servers. Blizzard is currently investigating the issue, and according to the company's European customer service Twitter feed, a fix is on the way.

Diablo III launched today for the PC and Mac. It is the first title in the series since 2001's Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion and adds a variety of new features, character classes, and a new auction house system, which charge gamers a range of fees. It launched without player-vs.-player multiplayer, and set preorder records at Blizzard and Amazon. For more on Diablo III, check out GameSpot's latest preview.

Diablo 3 Error Message Blocks Out Game Access Ads By Google » Blog Tags Today's Most Popular Videos »

Diablo 3 is here at last, but the release hasn't gone as smoothly as Blizzard would like thanks to some launch day hiccups in the form of an "Error 37" message. Some players are reporting (via Shacknews) that they're greeted with a message upon launching the game that reads: "The servers are busy at this time. Please try again later. (Error 37)"

An update from the developer on Battle.net confirms that the issue is related to the servers being slammed hard with the influx of new users. "Due to high concurrency the login servers are currently at full capacity. This may cause delays in the login process, account pages and web services. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience while this is being resolved." There are also apparently issues affecting character creation that Blizzard is looking into.

This is a huge launch and issues were to be expected. Kudos to Blizzard for getting out in front of it and commenting quickly. How has your first-time Diablo 3 experience been so far? Is the game working fine? Running into these issues or any others? Let us know!
