The next issue of Qore has been delayed due to revision of content. Episode 13 was expected to launch last week to coincide with E3 and the announcement of the PSP Go!. As you may have read, the Qore feature covering the PSP Go! was leaked last month prior to the official announcement. “We are currently revising the content of the episode to bring you the most up-to-date information,” states the email from Sony.
The Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta is currently underway until June 28th 2009 and we were lucky enough to get invited to join in through our GAP membership as well as being a Qore subscriber. We spent a few hours over the weekend playing the game to bring you our thoughts.
