It's possible to login in the Mt Gox website and check your balance.
Has anybody tried already? has the website been hacked?

I did.
It didn't accept a wrong password but it accepted the correct one.
The displayed balance was correct. (However, it was also correct in the leaked database.)
It showed BTC, EUR, USD balances (these are the only currencies I ever used, USD have been [and still is] zero days before the shutdown, EUR was 0.001, BTC was ~8) nothing else.
So, unless you are worried that their current database doesn't have correct records of you, you gain nothing by checking it.
My last trade (EUR->BTC) happened ~10 hours before the shutdown and it's still valid now.
Did it ask for your 2FA (if you had it enabled in the first place)?
No, but I never enabled it.
I didn't really use Gox because the verification took months for me and my friends said their SEPA transfers took 3-4 weeks instead of 3-4 days. I just jumped in the last days to gamble on cheap coins (I sold some BTC to OkPay and made a quick EUR deposit). And, as you can see, it wasn't a huge amount, so I didn't feel the need to rush into my settings and set it up (I do use it on other exchanges I actually work with and I would probably enable it on Gox in the following days if I had the chance for that but not to withdraw the BTC).
