What's up with PSN?
I'm sure some people have noticed but PSN is down again but it's been several days. Apparently some hackers got into the server and shut it down. Anyone else have info on this?

Re: What's up with PSN?
I heard the same infos, however I don't get affected as much as most people. I play mostly offline games and the only time I use the network is for Marvel VS Capcom 3 which I haven't played for a while or when I buy DLC stuff in PSN.
Now don't get me wrong, I don't regret trading in my X360, however I will admit Microsoft has had better luck with their online presence. Again it would make me cry a river if all i Play is CoD.

Re: What's up with PSN?
I only used my PSN for Dissidia 012 and Metal Gear Online, so I think I can manage not going online with them for awhile.
Re: What's up with PSN?
The hackers are claiming they didn't do it

Re: What's up with PSN?
No Anon claimed they havent had anything to do with it, whether or not this is a standalone Hacker is up for debate.
However I have been reading that some people managed to stay connect a few minutes after everyone else got booted and as soon as they accessed the PSN store a message appeared stating that "Transfering funds to wallet failed". So it would seem that their might have been a hacker hacking downloads for free.
Screwattack did mention it however

Yeah, that's the info I got yesterday. Fucking Anons ruining everything.
He was the dude who hacked PSN for like a few hours last year right? Because then Sony sued the shit out of him for doing this and then Anon went nuts and fucked with PSN. I'd watch the video but my school comp doesn't allow videos to load. Any word on when this will be fixed?

Re: What's up with PSN?

Re: What's up with PSN?
^Which is why I don't play MMOs, the second the server screws up, you can't play it. I remember when Garry's Mod screwed up after Garry broke it. xD
I'm not using DLC at the moment, so it doesn't bug me right now, although I do agree that hackers need to get off their narcisistic deity complexes and leave things alone.

Re: What's up with PSN?
^DA 2 is not an MMO.
Which surprises me, you can't play it, Taintz? I was able to play my game and platinum in it may I add, offline. It jus mentioned that I wouldn't be able to connect to the server. Weird.
Well, on recent news, Sony now confirms it was an external intrusion as they put it. It was between Apr. 17-19th when information of users were hacked and used. Anyone who has credit card connected to it beware and watch your account.
Wow. This is a bad year for PSN and Sony has a rep to rebuild, which will rebuild in time, but it will be hurting enough.

Re: What's up with PSN?
Well, I was referring to online play in general, MMO is the term I use, since I get corrected all the time. >_> Oh well.
Sony is actually bleeding money, according to the GameStop clerks, that's why all the games got dumbed down in terms of price. At least for Square Enix games, but that needs no explanation for a price change. LAWL

Re: What's up with PSN?
Wait? Price drop on games?! Lol All games in this neck of the wood are still regular price. I don't mind a discount.
Does that mean Dissidia dookie012 will drop to 5.99???

Re: What's up with PSN?
That's probably cause Square Enix hasn't really made a 'big game' since FFXIII and Dissidia 012 ANd they're both pretty old so a price drop would make sense. Their most recent games never had or never should have had a full price because they were all remakes like TOmb Raider Trilogy and FFIV complete series. I Don't think Square right now are making any sort of price adjustments according to Sony's bleeding affect since they have already licensed a lot of their games with other consoles. Dungeon Siege III looks like their next promising one and from what I can tell it's already secured with Xbox360.
FFXIII Versus seems more likely now in my opinion to jump to Multi.
Sony on the other hand already suffered from natural disasters from Japan and their stock had already been down. This whole week damaged them even more, then of course we have whatever that dollar amount that the hackers delved into that Sony has to deal with, the whole process of rebuilding, crime investigation, then their recent lawsuit, man. They're hurting. Makes me wonder what they have or E3 or if they're going to be even participating. Probably, but they have a lot of loss face to deal with since Nintendo is announcing its new system.
I for one will keep playing and buying Ps3 games since as far as I know I haven't been affected yet. I mostly play offline games as I stated so I'm all good. IF they keep producing games that I like, I'll stay on board. If other companies offer more, Then I'll jump back on Xbox or maybe even to nintendo {if they can give me a serious tone and not just nostalgic moments}; but regardless I'll be keeping my Ps3. I'm not angry, but I'm not happy.
But according to IGN, Sony mentioned some sort of online use by May 3rd. What that will be? Who knows. Let's just hope my profile and all my things aren't completely wiped out then and only then will I Have some rage. LOL.

Re: What's up with PSN?
They said they're rebuilding PSN from the start because the Hacker really did damage to the server. I don't blame them, they've gotta do whatever to get it all rebuilt and shit and make sure there is no more hacking. Sure, getting DLC for things is impossible right now and it sucks for people who have to wait to play some games because developers are retarded and force you to be online to play 3/4th of their games...

Kinda proves that factory cut "good" games are useless on single player. (talking about repeat titles like the COD series)

Re: What's up with PSN?
No skin off my teeth, I much prefer single player. Multi player games are only good in short bursts.

Re: What's up with PSN?
It looks like PSN is gonna be back by May 3 and Sony is gonna be giving a 30 day PSN Plus membership along with a free PSN game or DLC.
