If your an owner of the original chunky PS3 like me then you have undoubtedly been unable sign into PSN and even play a lot of your games off-line including the new Heavy rain. I've been constantly checking for updates as to wether they are close to a solution but still no real information on an eta.
I'm just finding it absolutely ridiculous that this is something which has affected close to 35million people worldwide, a lot of them very pi*%ed off and leaving comments all over the place. Some over the top and very dramatic, doesn't look like Sony will hear the end of this.
Sony are keeping us updated (if you can call it that 'last update 14h ago') on twitter - http://twitter.com/sonyplaystation
More information here - http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/gamesblog/2010/mar/01/games-sony
Has anyone lost any of their trophy's yet because a lot of people already have.
EDIT***
It's also advised you stay off your PS3 until a solution has been found, hmm..
-
i didn't even notice. :welp: i guess we'll just have to live without playstation for a while then, huh?
you can read books, go run around outside, call and talk to family, work, or even use the internet to study and learn something new like fluid mechanics or plasma physics

I'm surprised that an issue that affects so many people, was not picked up during testing.

nobody told the japanese about leap years, it was a deliberate move on the US's part when it was discovered that they hadn't figured it out some time in the 80's when it was feared that the japanese economy could possibly rival the US's
and now we all have to pay... the aftershocks of the cold war are still causing casualties.... casualties who never even saw the wall come down

did u guys hear that apple admits to having used child labor in the past? a million tweets resounded in feigned outrage. what difficulties will consumers face next?

for every ipod you don't eat, i'll eat 3

Well, I haven't been having any trouble. I downloaded the Heavy Rain and GoW3 demos last night, and I even got a few trophies.
Is it only effecting certain systems or is it specifically the PSN?

i think you might have dreamed it... what you're describing is impossible. not only that but extremely insensitive and irresponsible.
i mean, how would you like it if I kissed your mom with that mouth?
-
I swear its true, I have no reason to lie here. Just checked. I still have my 3 or 4 trophies I got last night. Perhaps thats because Dante's Inferno is a Single-Player only game. And I know I downloaded the Heavy Rain demo last night, cause I played it shortly before going to bed.
-

listen i dont even think youre paying close attention to what is and is not happening
-
it's only the fat PS3, slims are out in the clear... and there has been a new update tell users that have a PS3 that has this problem to not play on it till they solve this issue to avoid permanent and unreversible damage.
-
Ah, its only the older PS3s than?
EDIT: Just checked the twitter page, looks like I'm in the clear (I have a 120g one, and it says they're connecting normally)
-
well i haven't turned on my ps3 in about a week so i guess i'll just wait until this blows over, thanks
-
also i forgot to say there also looking to solve this issue in the next 24 hour so looks like we might have another day before anything is done. So we are looking at 2 1/2 days of waiting for us ps3 fat users witch i am effected too BTW.

was hoping to jones n-bombs all day in UNCHARTED:2 but my day is now ruined!!! :fogetshakefist:

i think it runs deeper than this. Obviously this could be the work of some heroic hackers.... think about it, megacorporations like sony and microsoft have been using playstations to condition young people around the world into a mindset more accepting of the coming new world order. These companies are teeming with jews who have historically played an essential role, with the help of the military of our ZOG(zionist occupied government), in shaping mass media to condition the unsuspecting public.
stand up to this jewish communist brainwashing and kill your playstation

No problems with my first generation PS3 yet. Hopefully it stays that way.
-
Has anyone lost any of their trophy's yet because a lot of people already have.
I haven't lost any other then Heavy Rain for some reason witch i'm not wearied since all trophy's are backed up on the PS network I know this from reformatting my hard drive many times but I feel sorry for those how lost there saves since I know there not getting them back unless you backed up your hard drive recently. lol.

that is all slanderous garbage! heh, where do you get your farce information from might I ask?FOX NEWS CHANNEL? lol
everyone knows that sony made an agreement with barack obama to open a slave baby labor camp just inside the chineese border. After the earthquake in Haiti, undisclosed CIA run covert churchgroups rounded up haitian babbies to move over to the chinese sony playstation baby camp. What the chinese government and obama did not know though, was that the baby hatians had the allspark. Yese, the autobot leader "optimus prime" gave the allspark to the haitian babby leadership, also known as "lil wayne" who then installed a piece of it into every 1st gen playstation. you ever see that part of the movie with the cellphone robot things? yeah
-
everyone knows that any bodies coming out of Haiti were being transported to Israel in pieces for the jewish organ harvesting cartels

just want to go on the record and say this is fuckin bogus

are you really like this all the time? I can't imagine that being a cynic 24/7 is very enjoyable personally or for other people to be around in real life.
just because people use playstation doesn't mean every single person needs some advice on what you deem to be more 'productive' activities.
my grandfather has less disgust for the modern world than you man
*smokes pipe whilst wearing tweed jacket and only enjoying things ironically.
-
that isn't really cynical, he's essentially saying why fret over clouds on sunny day? there are better things to do than be upset your games aren't working. if anything that's an optimist's outlook
-
Yeah, my PS3 went down last night. It works now though, they've been at it and IGN has been updating us on the progress. Check to see if your PS3 can runs games now.

when you pee, do you pull your dick through the hole in your boxer shorts or do you just pull down the front and hold it with the bottom of your hand(or the other hand) as you grip your penis?
also, your grandpa is a punkass bitch who don't know shit
-
all im sayin is what's with the obsession with things being productive or intellectual all the time? One of lifes many pleasures is the pursuit of um....... pleasure
-
being productive/intellectual can be very pleasurable
-
obviously

why you listenin to that wu tang shit when you could stimulate yo mind with some opera
-
afura bro i agree with you
-

it's a pretty awful world we live in when "go run around outside" is considered relatively "productive or intellectual" by contemporary standards

for real, tho he probably isn't considering what coke actually posted but instead the general DietCoke Snarkiness which is rarely entirely serious anyway
and also congresman. cut the digs. you look like a hot fajita in a restaurant.

Its a flippant remark meant to make me smile. All of those things I listed are things that I've either been doing or need to do.(plasma physics and fluid mechanics are two course names that MIT offers through their opencourseware service which I've been using lately)
Like most of my posts it was just me talking to myself like a crazy person. You don't have to be so defensive, do what makes you happy. Follow your heart

That's an awesome post

irreparably damaged? how so? if it is are they gonna give you a free replacement (not including P&P obviously) like with MS and the red ring of death fiasco? or are sony gonna shit on every body again like that .gif of a giant ass with the word sony on it shitting on a crowd?
-
what happens with any computer system is that when you lose a game a percentage of your computer is permanently destroyed, or 'nullified' (this is why computers fail after a while). sony didn't take this into account when they made their playstation network, instead of nullifying portions of the users console they destroyed the network itself. all it really needs is a full reboot and everything will be back to normal.

that makes no sense. :fogetshrug:

so you really are just incapable of thought huh
-

what does this mean??
-
If it makes no sense then it makes no sense, insulting me (and failing i might add) won't change that, seriously, i get your being sarcastic was just trying to call you on it.
-
unless you think being incapable of thought is a positive thing it's still an insult. you can't fail to insult someone otherwise. you might not be offended, but that's because you HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT IT ENOUGH
i thought the reboot homage (not really sarcasm) would be a nicer than UGH DO WORDS JUST FALL OUT INBETWEEN DROOL? just to give you the benefit of the doubt but you're just so gosh darned determined

FFS WHERE DO I SAY I'm incapable of thought? because i point out how a load of boll ox something you wrote is? i was simply calling you on stupid it was, even as a sarcasm it was as still retarded, loosing a game destroys part of your computer? that the best you can do? i might not be good at insulting people, but i think that's a good thing because i don't practise insulting people as you seam to. you can stay cynical and think the worst of people and die a lonely bitter bastard, I'll take the company of others, any one who is re tarted? ill ignore and won't practice my capability to insult.

i'm with upid-stay on this one climbtree i am getting sick and tired of your misleading technical advice

PSN has been restored, everyone can go back indoors, stop reading books, stop calling and talking to family, forget work and stop using the internet to learn about fluid mechanics and plasma physics.
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/03/playstation-network-service-restored/
We can all finally go back to our life's and forget this entire experience ever happened, I think that would be best..
..Xbox sucks and PS3 owns.
I feel better, don't you?
-
Boll ox loosing that practise seam re tarted
climbtree's not sarcastic he's just meta
-
climbtree's not sarcastic he's just meta
god damn spell check, doesn't recognise bollox as real word, i didn't notice that, i just pressed change without looking. He's meta? either way, it's a stupid thing to get uppity about and start bitching.
-
That's because it's spelled bollocks

either way, it's a stupid thing to get uppity about and start bitching.
then maybe you shouldn't

climbtree did really well here

Maybe Swordfish has never seen any of Reboot? Don't see how that makes him dumb/stupid.
I suppose the "if you have to explain the joke it stops being funny" thing applies, but still... maybe instead of being a dick you could have just explained it anyway.
-
Swordfish, I love you.
-
i have little memory of anything in reboot and i am fairly sure it did not affect my ability to understand it was not serious i don't think that is the issue :fogetmmh:
-
admittedly... you are sort of right... it WAS the issue originally... but now not so much.

As i've pointed out, i know he wasn't being serious, and now i'ts been pointed out i get the refrence to the series reboot; it's just that it's be such a long time since i last saw (or hurd about it) that iI'd forgotten about it. Instead of being a douche you could have just pointed out the refrence, lack of knowlage doesn't make me an idiot, it just made me unknowing.
-

i really liked this.
For real though I have no idea what the fuck you guys are talking about and I've seen reboot once or twice max. Probably would have made the same mistake :fogetshrug:
-
Same, i only have vague recollection of the series, i remember the giant purple cube thing, that forces the programs(?) to participate in games, maybe that's what he's on about?
-
Guys, can we get back to the main topic please? Sony has effed up. Sony has effed up bad and now it needs our help. It deserves better than this topic, guys. Sony has always been there for us and now it needs our help. We need to band together for Sony. We need to remember what's important.
I don't know if anyone from Sony is reading this, but if you are, I... we.... want you to know that we'll be there for you. No matter what. It doesn't matter that you effed up Sony. It's okay.

I cannot yet afford a Playstation 3. That is a general sense of what I'm doing in the meantime until I can actually buy myself one.
Although I might not buy one at this moment, even if I can afford it. Or at least not until they come out with a new slimmer model. (That way I won't be completely fucked when the second generation of PS3's all mysteriously crap out for no obvious reason at some undetermined point in the future.)
EDIT: Doing without is such a bitch.

Afura you are in a constant state of clulessness I picture you sitting down to dinner and being completely mystified about how to go about dealing with it and someone has to make airplane noises for you to open your mouth so the can shove a spoonfull of food in your mouth and you spit out like half of it on your chin

i couldn't imagine anything more boring than sitting listening to you critiquing the world. how unpleasant

eehhhh what? this is GENERAL not some CS/p911 knockoff this place is for serious posting only and all users know that
if they were jokeposting theyd be getting warns and I dont see any warns!!!
mr. alec you dont seem to understand the seriousness of general
-
did anyone really have to know climbtree was talking about reboot to keep them from reacting with UGH THAT MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER
it was obvious it was a joke whether you knew what it was from or not (i didn't!!!) so why would you react to it that way
it's like my friend's mom who will be watching some disney movie and will say "OH THAT COULD NEVER HAPPEN"
-
that was the point i attempted to make
-
He couldn't make the connection to exactly what climbree was referring to.
It was quite literally a null pointer exception.

I didn't read this thread fully so I don't know if it's already been derailed, but all I have to say is that this is another reason why you should never be an early adopter of any system. Always wait for the new and improved model. (unless it's nintendo then don't bother because they remake their systems every month)
-

this has really only been a problem with this generation of consoles, and even all the problems considered the people who jumped on early with the PS3 basically have full backward compatibility with all games designed for sony systems while the newer ones don't. Hell the "new and improved" slim PS2s were pretty notorious for having more problems than the old fat ones. :welp:

so whenever anything happens anywhere am I going to see it in context of that stupid hitler clip

I liked the 'stupid hitler clip' but I'm immature and dumb.

a bust is like those head+shoulders statues of GREATMEN that brainiacs and weirdos keep on their desks

anyone who thinks this is a joke it's not. you're all fat diapered babies. well ok, not all or even most of you but there's definitely this gross feeling of validation getting passed around and we'll have to see if it stops growing here or flowers into something not subtly revolting
-
uhhhh i think it probably has more to do with the fact that the majority of forum members are from the US, a country with a communist president

@ Frisky- dude not cool- not at all. And Coke- you lose the game. Godwin's law= Fail. *is Jewish*

I didn't mean to offend you but that stuff is funny to me because its so ridiculous. Keep in mind I was mocking the theories themselves.

I knew you weren't serious, but I suppose i find it hard to laugh at those theories, even so ridiculous, knowing how much harm Anti-Semitism has caused, and that some people still believe the lies. Keep in mind, too, that I know you but little so far, so cannot read you well. And it's actions, not blood, that tells.
Though I'll admit there's a strange dichotomy between the jokes people tell about themselves and those others tell about them- we laugh at things we say, but flare in anger when others do so... It's so strange, the ways we see the world...

I remember that show 'Reboot' having a dog.
And possibly incest.
"When Dot, for once dressed in a long, glamorous gown, sang to her kid brother on his birthday, the script called for her to sashay over, wink, and give him a sisterly kiss on the chin. ABC wouldn't hear of it. "It was obviously incest," Blair says BSP told him. "We were implying an incestuous relationship between brother and sister." Pearson pipes up, and his Geordie accent is suddenly steely. "I can't honestly get my mind to think in those terms. I think that's one of the sickest things I've heard. Those people, how do they sleep at night?"
