This is tougher than regular Tetris, in my opinion. Enjoy.

Sweet.
Yeah I know, maybe it’s not really a “video game”, but it’s a facebook app and it seems like it has a large following of players. I admit, I use it a little bit.
Recently one of my friends/”neighbors” in CityVille constructed their hotel, which allows other players to “check in” to a room in the hotel. Each time you check in you get some sort of reward. You can check into the 1st floor, and it costs you a small amount of coins. Then you check into the next floor up and it costs you another small amount of coins. Finally after that, you can “Request VIP” rooms from the hotel owner. That’s where you can get the good rewards.
So anyway, the trick is, once your neighbor has given you a VIP room, you need to check into it….BUT…this is what works for me: There is a slight delay from the time I click on my neighbors hotel until the time it brings a window up for me to “Accept VIP”…so during that delay, I click the hotel as MANY times as I possibly can, and then I wait. Eventually, up comes a window that allows me to Accept VIP and it shows what reward I received (a spa, racquetball club, mud bath, yoga class, etc). So I received my reward and closed the window…but wait…there is ANOTHER window just like it underneath the one I just closed, so I have another opportunity to “Accept VIP” and get another reward. SWEET.
As many times as I clicked on the hotel during the initial delay I was talking about, that’s how many windows opened, and how many rewards I was able to claim. Well over 100 for me. I have multiple spas, mud baths, racquetball courts, etc.
Anyway, just a little tip I thought I’d share. No big deal, but kinda neat. I’m sure Zynga will find out about this eventually and correct it.
Haven’t played it yet, waiting on my little girl to get into it with me. She is really into ninjas right now.
Eventually, every game series you love will return… as a facebook application.

Credit card data possibly compromised. “Some services” back up next week.
Updated Story: Patrick Seybold offered clarification on why Sony took as long as it did to notify PSN customers. His full statement sent to IGN is below:
There’s a difference in timing between when we identified there was an intrusion and when we learned of consumers’ data being compromised. We learned there was an intrusion April 19th and subsequently shut the services down. We then brought in outside experts to help us learn how the intrusion occurred and to conduct an investigation to determine the nature and scope of the incident.
It was necessary to conduct several days of forensic analysis, and it took our experts until yesterday to understand the scope of the breach. We then shared that information with our consumers and announced it publicly this afternoon.

We all wanted the original N64 Super Smash Bros., whether we were cognizant of it or not, years before it was announced. Most of us weren’t even aware of the desire. But it was in us, because of one immutable law of the universe. This law is why the movie Alien vs. Predator exists. It is responsible for the instances in comic books when Superman and Batman get really pissed and take a couple swings at each other. And it is the main factor in creating all types of bloody fan fiction, from yarns about Mr. Darcy getting into a fistfight with Sherlock Holmes to fantasy short stories about Harry Potter in a magic duel with Gandalf.
The law is as follows: if people like two characters, they will LOVE it if those characters fight each other.
But besides this key marketing fact, what else did watching our favorite Nintendo characters struggle to hurl their brethren into a lethal abyss teach us?
