Singh400 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 This is totally gay. I haven't been on my PS3 since I completed GOW3. And I fire it up to link up Steam and PSN wih my Portal 2 copy, and this happens :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoTrunks Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Sony previously commented that the apparently worldwide network outage may be more than a simple technical error, saying that they arelooking into ?the possibility of targeted behaviour by an outside party.? Could be an attack Anonymous says they've got nothing to do with it, but they were promising something big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

presence06 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Amazon Cloud is down. Once that gets fixed PSN will be up. Not the CLOUD! zOMG. Take down PSN but not the cloud.. Wasn't Anon's "assault" supposed to happen on the 16th... not the 21st? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their protests happened on the 16th. The future attacks were not dated, to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boramas Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Most people on Neowin are American, and it's early out here. Engadget doesn't know what's up, either. It doesn't appear to be Anonymous, though. Probably just a network problem -- has happened before on both the Playstation and Xbox. Really last time i checked they were european do not presume!!!!

Piggy Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Wow, a couple of days to fix it. What's messed up is I just finished my exams. Consarnit! :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tharp Daddy Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Hm, I've seen PSN and XBL drop for a hour hours at a time, but days is quite a long amount of time. Must be something big, or something small that screwed everything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeEsquire Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Conspiracy theory: Anytime PSN ever goes down or has a hiccup, Sony can just blame it on Anon and take no blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 On an unrelated side-note, is anyone having problems with Xbox Live? My brother says he's having problems playing FIFA 11 online, says it's taking him ages to get games played. I'd immediately assume it's EA's fault as usual. :p But I just wanted to check and see if anyone here was having any problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Might get that 15 month playstation plus offer myself if i can get on. But considering services like these hardly ever have any downtime, i think a day here or there for some is acceptable. Some people were mentioning they were trying to get on PSN at 7am, why would you want to at that time? madness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, not everyone's in the same timezone! :p But 7am over here is a good time to play if you like playing against nocturnal Yanks. :p anonnews.org seems to be down currently as well So it is!

Dermot Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 lol, you won't catch me up at 7am to play on PSN. Although i do work during the day so that's not gonna happen even if i wanted to :( I do however don't think this outage was planned, specially not on the day of release of the 2 must anticipated games for a while - Mortal Kombat - Portal 2 They would look incompetent, oh wait..they already do. Thankfully enough I'm a Gamer who has all three formats so when one's down, I'll just move to the next so not much loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakey Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I'm in on PSN. Though my console apparently never turned itself off from last night :/ ... not sure if I am only logged in because I was always in and it is something that affects those who are trying to reconnect, or if it is just back up... But I just bought Socom 4 and The Fight Lights Out, and I'm dling The Fight update right now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted April 21, 2011 Subscriber² Share Posted April 21, 2011 Anon won. For a few days and then what? OtherOS reappears, Sony allow unsigned code, and every household is allowed to play backups online? :laugh: :p Nahhhh, absolutely nothing changes... Great protest.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted April 21, 2011 Veteran Share Posted April 21, 2011 And of course I got SOCOM 4 in the mail today from Gamefly. Oh well, will check out the SP for a bit to get used to the controls anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL, I made my purchase for it today as well.... But, you level up guns in single player for online, so I guess it gives us a reason to start it up. Add me to your friends list if not already.

Good thing is though, PSN is working for me, no issues at all. (Y) Still going to check out SP first though, kind of a little ritual of mine, that and I do not have much time until I eat dinner with the misses. EDIT - And PSN is now down for me. :laugh: Did grab the update though, so that is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
