It was meant to be the weekend there but I think they spotted a feew issues at the last minute and want to make sure everything is totally 100% before turning it back on.

My XBL friends reckon that this has cost Sony the US market, what with the LG lawsuit and PS3 import ban.

So could be US hackers be behind this because of this?

read it now and it turns out that blog is rubbish. sony will have many servers, the fact a single one cached by google was not out of date doesnt mean they all had the same status.

Think what they mean is that ALL Services will be restored by 31st of May.

The PSN will return in stages.

This whole situation must be very damaging to Sony - in the present economic climate you have to ask yourself how a company can stop trading for this amount of time and not put itself into problems.

The one thing that's getting on my nerves with Sony is the uncertainty, constantly quoting "in a few days", well it's been a few days since the last blog update so what next,,,, "another few days"

Why they cant just say by a fixed date your online MP with be back online (subject to change) instead of all this carrot dangling nonsense, it gives me the right hump.

Come on Sony get your thumb from out your butt and at least give us multiplayer back.

They are in a no win situation. No doubt the hackers are waiting for the date as well.....which is why it will probably just come back without immediate notice.

yeah I feel for sony somewhat as they will almost certianly be targeted when it comes back online and if it doesnt hold out it could prove fatal as no company will tolerate constant attacks -> outages as a circle.

Phased restoration has begun.

PS3 system software version 3.61 is now available, via the PS3 directly or the PlayStation website.

This version will force you to change your PSN password, once PSN is back up.

Apparently the US is online and they're preparing the EU servers right now.

If the rumours are true that part of the attack on Sony was revenge for them taking GeoHot to task then i bet there are other companies who will think twice before taking Anonymous on. Was it them that opened up the servers at ACS law as well.

I never used to be a huge fan of the PS3 initially but it's now my preferred console, mostly due to the xbox being full of kids being appendage heads

For goodness sake, can people really not talk about PS3 without promoting "that other" console!! It's so childish.

I am back on PSN, but the store is not working yet, but I guess that will be last.

I thinks it's just the shear number of users all doing the same, read this snip-it from the EU PSN Blog





Posted: 15 May 2011 04:07 PM PDT

Some of you have mentioned that you have not received your password reset emails. With the huge number of people coming back online at the same time and resetting their passwords, it is creating significant email traffic to ISPs. The consequence is that some of the ISPs are throttling the emails.

We are currently trying to resolve this, but in the meantime please be patient and refrain from submitting multiple requests. You will receive you reset email and be able to get back to enjoying your online gaming.

Update:
We’re currently experiencing an extremely heavy load of password resets, so we recently had to turn off services for approximately 30 minutes to clear the queue.

If you’ve requested your password reset, please give it a bit of time to reach your email.

Who was promoting??:rolleyes:

I was just giving my opinion, which I am perfectly entitled to do. I just stated I haven't been too bothered as I didn't use the PSN much anyway.

Also the store will be activated later. As mentioned in the blog its a staggered restart. Gaming would be activated first and the store last.

it went down last night because they had to turn it off to alleviate the amount of people changing there password at once

ps3 is my preferred choice, sounds quality it better, and it outputs true surround, whereas the xbox does its own thing and sounds like 2.1. the ps3 has a far better design and the controller is the main thing that wins me over

You will get 2 free PS3 games, out of a choice of 5 titles, and/or 2 free PSP titles from a choice of 4 games (so 4 if you have both I guess)

You will also get a free month on PS+ (or 2 months if you are already a PS+ user)

This was apparently posted on the UK blog which has since been taken down (so treat as a rumour - although looks viable!):


Quote:

First up you can choose two of the following PS3 titles:

LittleBigPlanet
Infamous
Wipeout HD/Fury
Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty
Dead Nation

And PSP owners can choose two of the following:

LittleBigPlanet PSP
ModNation PSP
Pursuit Force
Killzone Liberation

Yes all very true. The PS3 is the system of choice for adults not kiddies. It is a serious piece of kit with premium hardware like the blu-ray disc player - not just for games. How anyone could be serious about giving up the PS3 when PSN was offline I don't know - you don't buy a PS3 JUST for games (even though it has the best titles!)

I'm sorry but you berate me for mentioning the xbox in the thread then you go and do exactly the same thing:rolleyes: but it a totally fanboyish way.

Most of the people I know over the age of 28 own an xbox as they prefer the online gaming aspect. There is nothing kiddie about them.

Quiet of a few of them also own the ps3 and like me use it mostly for Blu Ray movies as the 360 provides a better gaming experience for them. Also a better choice of games of late as the PS3 exclusives have been few and far between.

Still not powered up my PS3 to update the system yet. Had it on yesterday to watch a 3d blu ray but that was all.

Not true. The free games are yours to keep, it's only the actual PS+ stuff and features that you loose access to after the 30 day trial. If you read down the comments there are posts from the moderator explaining that.

Quote:

The free games are yours to keep. It is only some of the content you get through PS Plus that will expire at the end of the month.
List of games
Quote:

All existing PlayStation Network members will be able to access the following from PlayStation Store*:
Two PS3 games from the following list:
LittleBigPlanet
Infamous*
Wipeout HD/Fury
Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty
Dead Nation*

For those with PSP accounts, you will also be eligible to download two PSP games from the following list:
LittleBigPlanet PSP
ModNation PSP
Pursuit Force
Killzone Liberation*
- 30 days free PlayStation Plus membership for non PS Plus subscribers*
- Existing PlayStation Plus subscribers will be given 60 days free subscription.
I think I will get Infamous and Wipeout HD

Tod 17-05-2011 00:17

Re: PSN back online after data breach. You must change passwords [see post 1]
 
The free games they are talking about are the 2 freebies you choose from the selection of 5. Additional to them you will get PSN+ free games, but they do expire after your 30 days run out. You will however keep other free content (wallpapers, avatars) and you will keep any games you have brought with PSN+ discount.

I think it is right they are trying to take a positive spin out of giving out PSN+ - but you have to remember they are not able to charge ANYONE while they are giving this out free, and I would guess this IS costing them in lost earnings for not only the downtime, but for the free month when they can not charge for the service at all.

And for my PSP:

Am pretty happy with this, as they are all games I was fairly keen on getting hold of.

What with that and a month free Qriocity and 2 months free PSN+ I am actually saving money from all this - result! :)

Re: PSN back online after data breach. You must change passwords [see post 1]
 
Infamous is actuarily quote tempting.....I'm not sure now! I too have Wipeout and LBP. I played beta of Dead Nation and it was fantastic, so I have to have that :)

So..Infamous or Ratchet and Clank?...hmmmmm

Nugget 17-05-2011 10:30

Re: PSN back online after data breach. You must change passwords [see post 1]
 
InFamous is a definite for me - came this close to buying it when it was released, so that's worked out well :D

Other than that, I think it's a toss-up between Dead Nation and Wipeout - haven't played any Wipeout in about 10 years, so may be worth revisiting

i compare thee xbox to an iPod (or iphone, take your choice)

its a popular console (..or phone) but there are alternatives that are a lot better, IMO people only get xboxes because they are more popular. I was ps3 only until about 2 or 3 months ago when i got my xbox, because more of my mates were playing xbox, and there was only 3 or 4 who played regularly on ps3

in terms of the console itself, the ps3 is far better, but the xbox has more people on it (for some unknown reason) so makes the online side of it better

My final word on this as the thread is going off topic a bit is that a lot of games makers that make multi format games are able to make them better on the 360 and many graphical features are left off of the PS3 version. So it might have more raw power but the PS3 is apparently not as good at doing some fancy graphical effects or its just not as easy to program.

History would say that the PS3 should be the popular one after the sucess of the PS1 and PS2. The 360 is popluar because it is a fantastic console over all.

I was looking at some reviews of Dead Nation and it does look pretty cool.

i think your talking about black ops stephen, i have the game for both consoles, and its dier on ps3 but average on xbox. i still think the game itself is worse than the superhub, but that is my opinion :D

on black ops, the xbox does have more features, especially on zombies, i think the reasoning behind it is that they want to port it from xbox to ps3, not rewrite the game in blu ray

either way, does anyone have a date for the playstation store to come back on? i presume when it does, we will get our free stuff :D

It could be another few days or maybe longer.

No not COD it was Ghostbusters and a few other games. Missing a lot of graphical elements and featuring poor quality textures compared to the 360.

Can people please stick to the topic... This is not a 360 vs. PS3 thread, it is a thread about the PSN breach and related issues. If anyone still wants to debate the merits of one console over another, fine, but start a dedicated thread for it.

Keep this one to the PSN situation...



Anyway, as for the Store... I haven't seen any date other than "by the end of May".

This went up today, btw, about the Identity Protection Sony is offering:

Off topic post deleted. This is not a 360 vs. PS3 thread. This thread is about the PSN data breach & downtime etc. Any more and I'll do more than just delete the odd post.

Great, no more mentions of the usage of that other console then!

Things are far from working smoothly on PSN. I was in home yesterday and it was jittering through some worlds really badly, and Qriocity takes 30 minutes to start up on PS3!!

Has anyone had any issues with Black Op's on the PS3 since the restoration of PSN, more specifically NAT issues.

I noticed last night me and a few mates couldn't join each other, despite both me and my buddies in game NAT status saying open.

I've forwarded all port's that I'm aware of but I can only assume this SKy sagem Ph2 router isnt working correctly (or PSN is playing up).

Re-enabling UPnP works fine but it then says my NAT is moderate (but then lets me join no probs), the funny thing is, I never appeared to have an issue before the PSN outage.

Answers on a postcard if you please chaps and chapesses :)


I appreciate this does sound more like a router issue but thought it warranted an ask in this thread before I start another.

Looks like Sony have a few more problems to deal with! This time it is to do with an exploit with Playstation Network password reset.
