As I’m sure many of you know, the recent disastrous events in Japan impacted the lives on many. The destruction took it’s toll on the gaming industry as well.

<li> Sony has closed six plants in Fukushima Miyazaki. Those plants were responsible were creating Blu-ray discs.

<li> More than 12,000 PS3’s and 5,600+ Xbox 360’s have been washed away.

<li> All game events in Japan are canceled for now. Events for games such as BlazBlue, Yakuza of the End, Dead or Alive, Monster Hunter 3 and many more.

<li> Motor Storm: Apocalypse has been delayed due to the fact that the game contains earthquake scenes, which at the moment is a extremely sensitive issue to many.

<li> Final Fantasy XI and XIV servers are offline in Japan.

<li> Konami’s Metal Gear servers are offline as they hope to reduce and save electricity.

<li> Many game and anime studios will temporary stop production, due to a lot of damage.


However, there is one positive note. Sony is donating money towards disaster relief, as well as giving 30,000 or so radio products to help out communication.
