Sony says Siren listing was 'mistake,' should have referred to Rime
Horror fans excited by the possibility of a new game in the Siren series are getting some metaphorical coal in their equally-metaphorical stocking early; IGN reports that the Romanian PlayStation 4 press release which seemed to have leaked a PS4-bound Siren game was actually referring to the working title for Rime by Tequila Works. "The listing for Siren was a mistake, it should have listed Rime," Sony told IGN. Not much is known about Rime at this time - oh hey, that rhymes! - other than it will feature open-world exploration of an ancient civilization's ruins. While that's probably not what Siren hopefuls had in mind, the Rime trailer shows some strange and spooky creatures moving about, so ... silver lining and all that.
iPhone 4 pre-order mess takes a sinister turn with privacy breach
In amongst the otherwise fun stampede that befell Apple and AT&T's servers yesterday, some less humorous problems were also taking place. Numerous tipsters reported to Gizmodo during the day that they were being logged into other people's AT&T accounts while going in to try and sign up for an iPhone 4 upgrade. An insider source suggests that this was caused by a major fraud prevention overhaul of AT&T's software last weekend, which was followed by "absolutely no testing" prior to the iPhone 4's launch. Tsk tsk. The network itself has responded by saying it's unable to replicate the issue and is looking into it. While it's doing that, a bunch of people might be "looking into" your AT&T account details. Sleep tight now.
