If this goes on much longer. Perhaps Sony should give out these instead.

I just realized something. No exact date on the blog = not up anytime soon. You just know if it was going up today, they'd announce that a few days ago. It won't come up out of nowhere.

They wont announce a date a few days before because of the backlash if they inevitably missed it. They will make a blog about it a few hours to a day of when it'll go up.

Has Randy Pitchford's take on PSN hack been mentioned?
Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford has condemned the "cyber-terrorists" responsible for bringing down the PlayStation Network, calling on gamers to support not attack Sony as it works to restore services.

Speaking to Eurogamer this morning in London as part of a promotional tour for Duke Nuke Forever, Pitchford said: "Every one of us who plays games on PlayStation Network – and especially Sony – we're all victims of cyber-terrorism.

"We should all be rallying our support, hating the terrorists, wishing to dismantle that problem, because that could strike at any time and disrupt our fun and disrupt our way of life as gamers."

He argued that much of the ire so far, therefore, had been directed at the wrong target.

"It's freakin' terrible. [The hackers] are evil, they're criminal," he said. "We're all throwing darts at Sony – we should all give 'em hugs and help 'em out.

"It's the first time we've experienced it in the games industry and I think we're failing in how we respond to it. Everyone who is attacking Sony right now is failing. We need to attack cyber-terrorists."

On the day that news broke of a separate hacking of Square-Enix's user database, Pitchford expressed fears that the PSN attack could prove "inspiring".

"Other people that want to feel that kind of result now have examples they can look at which could inspire them," he said. "Wow, cyber-terrorism is now an inspiration for other cyber-terrorists? We need to stomp this sh*t out and kill it."

Acknowledging that online systems would always be at risk of a hacking attempt, he argued that, "The best thing is to try and create a culture where that behaviour is not acceptable human behavior."

I don't expect them to tell us when it's going to re-launch, they've already missed enough of their own deadlines.

I reckon it could be the weekend. If by this evening they think its all stable, I dont think they'd wait till after the weekend to put it back up. They'd want people to be able to game in their free time as soon as, so more dont jump ship

I have it on reliable sources that PSN has been reprogrammed to run on strawberries. My sources are secret to protect their identities.

Haha, that's hilarious. Christ, they didn't contact you for further comment? To confirm? Anything?

For fucking real, how do these people get these jobs? Sometimes I wonder why I'm working on my thesis.

I'm guessing some time next week. Monday or Tuesday seems possible. I just think a weekend roll out would be asking for a disaster.
