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

As I said above it's a staggered activation and the update is just to get people ready. It could still be days away.


All times are GMT +1. The time now is 04:18.
