Playstation.... Hacked!?

[geon106]

So i went to play heavy rain....

i couldnt connect to the psn and heavy raind woudnt load. so i said screw it and went to play pain, and then try flow... not working.

hit the internetz and find out its happeneing everywhere?!!?!?

is it true? can it be? did someone hack, the ps3?!

if this isnt fixed.... this could be the last of sony. just imagine all the people who are gonna sue and all the ps3 recalls... surely sony can't compinsate it all?


what you guys think?

You smell like a troll.

I don't think an online service being down is a hack. Plus as people have said theres more to it than online. I'm sure its something which will be fixed by tomorrow, possibly even in a few hours.

If its still not up and your still thinking you can sue them, maybe you should get a Nintendo Wii instead?

As long as it's up by Friday in time for the release of BFBC2 i'm happy enough, I suppose on a plus note it finally got me playing the wii, although even that was only to play Mario RPG so not a great point for the ninty console.

hey woa woa hey. just wondering what the escapist community had to say. lol i did go a tiny bit over board with the suing thing but this is an open discussion on games and such.


and to who ever said it was a calender/date issue, it seems that seems to be it, because the newer ps3s (slims) apparently didnt get affected.

lol *sad face

my poor conspiracy theories go no where. haha ohwell

Do you know how big Sony is? You think that this could end Sony? It could, ever so slightly possible, cause them to cut off SCEI, but seriously, Sony is fucking HUGE!

Take a whopping huge look

Also, seeing as PSN is free, I don't think people can sue at all.

ehh knowing the crazy folk in the world some people might try

 

[Megacherv]

I bet this is another Dante's Inferno hype device...

Chill pill indeed. Check out the news and support aticles that have come out. There will be a fix for the error in the next 24 hours.

I think that you're over exaggerating a simple maintenance check/failure which would most likely be solved by tomorrow morning.

Incidentally, even if this were to last a week, online isn't everything so I don't think it would be the last of the PS3.

Much less Sony, which incidentally does more than make PS3s.

Also, seeing as PSN is free, I don't think people can sue at all.

Its actually effecting offline games, even those of people that are not/ never have been connected to the internet..

So they may be able to..

However with the thousands/millions of ps3's that are effected, the issue will have to be fixed.

Sue?

..dude, take a chill pill.

or a chill strip... put it on your tounge... and chill. Oh yeah

My slim is right as rain. Get it? Because the OP was trying to play Heavy Rain.

 

[TheTim]

I haven't had a single problem with it recently

*gets the shakes from not being able to get his daily fix of MW2*

 

[FoolKiller]

I highly doubt that it will end sony...

though since I am a 360 man I will of course pray for the worst.

Don't do that. I too have a 360 but if Sony would actually go down, the quality of games would too as there would be no competition (Sorry Wii owners, call it what you want, it's not next gen and more of a gimmick than anything else).

 

[archerboy106]

so now im hearing that sony got their act together and it seems as things are working now.... ohwell.

im still not 100% as to what actually happened... if anyone hears some legit news i'd be happy to hear
