So is this some kind of maintenance thing or is it anonymous?

Mizzou Gaming said:I think its pretty safe to say there are some serious internal design problems with the PlayStation Network. Perhaps some cost-saving shortcuts implemented years ago finally gave out. Its hard not to picture anything but a bunch of SONY employees running around in the barn where all this crap is housed trying to duct tape everything together.
Edit: I notice the internet browser still works but for whatever reason NeoGAF just shows up as an entire page full of letters and numbers.
DailyVacation said:I have a feeling this outage is due to Sony implementing additional security measures on the back end that generated some logic error. It could even be that such measures, as a result of retrieving nitpicky data from every registered PSN account, overloaded the servers and caused the outage. This is the only reason I can think of that would cause the issue to occur on all three SCE territories.

Great timing.
DECK'ARD said:I wonder if PSN+ subscribers will be showered in old games and useless content after this?
DailyVacation said:They will be showered with silence, with Sony pretending that nothing had happened.
I wish they could be as vocal about mishaps as they are with the competition. :\
Yes, this is their LEGACY, bestowed upon the world. This is all just SO dramatic...Norwegian Wood said:This really sucks, is this what Sony wants to be remembered for?
I'm waiting so I can get GAF matches for Arcana Heart 3. In the mean time lab time all day and maybe all weekend for marvel.NeoUltima said:So instead of playing MvC3 today I finally beat Far Cry 2 ... that game sucks.
Uggh I hope they fix this soon so I can stop playing crappy games in my backlog.
Fistwell said:So still down eh?

Dammit Sony, take any other day but NOT Easter! Jesus is not pleased!Norwegian Wood said:This really sucks, is this what Sony wants to be remembered for? Being down during the Easter holidays, thats just rich.
mercenar1e said:you described the PS+ experience.. they constantly update the store with Minis and PS1 games and to me it's just not worth it.. out of 50 million PS3's worldwide how many bought a PS+ membership? new survey was sent out last week.. hopefully SONY listens to it
patsu said:Not merely PS1 games and Minis. You get things like LBP Prehistoric Move DLC, KZ3 DLC, PSN games and trials. It's getting better now compared to launch time.
DECK'ARD said:I'd expect a "I survived the PSN outage and all I got was this shitty t-shirt" for your Home avatar at the very least.

I honestly don't think it matters at all. They are never going to say exactly what the server error was and it's not going to be fixed any faster than it is. Fix this shitMajine said:When was the latest official news, what, 15 hours ago? Not handling this publicly well enough.
Yes, this will be what sony will be remeber for!Norwegian Wood said:This really sucks, is this what Sony wants to be remembered for? Being down during the Easter holidays, thats just rich.
DailyVacation said:It's a good thing I gave up gaming for Holy Week!
Adamm said:Yes, this will be what sony will be remeber for!
Forget everything that came before or after, being down for a few days over easter will be what people associate when they hear the word sony for ever more..

Time for Sony to get some free PSN Games ready...IchigoSharingan said:Pretty sure everyone's gonna remember the few days 50 million PS3's were taken down all at once. Stuff like this really does stick to memory. It is no laughing matter.
The only thing that makes this particular server failure stand out from any other is the unfortunate timing with Socom, Portal and MK coming out this week. It's only been a day or two, it's yet to reach any level of significance and certainly not a serious enough matter to tarnish a company's reputation in any way.IchigoSharingan said:Pretty sure everyone's gonna remember the few days 50 million PS3's were taken down all at once.

They werent taken down, they just cant go online...IchigoSharingan said:Pretty sure everyone's gonna remember the few days 50 million PS3's were taken down all at once. Stuff like this really does stick to memory. It is no laughing matter.

It went green and red all night yesterday, but the actual network never came back online.protonion said:The eu blog has the green on button.
I cannot sign in but it's downloading the Virtua Tennis 4 demo I had started.
