I know dude! It's got me so distraught! I dropped it and started playing GTA3 trilogy instead because I don't want to exhaust game content before the dlc and this happens.

When psn gets up and wanna run through conquest mode with me? How far are you?

Sony shut down its Playstation Network after a new custom firmware version for the console let users download games and content with a fake credit card number, according to a moderator from Playstation fan-site PSX-Scene.

The moderator, who posted the information on news aggregator Reddit under the user name chesh420, said the latest version of a custom firmware for the Playstation 3 called Rebug.me let Playstation 3 owners with that firmware installed access a developer network. They could then put in a fake credit card number and download content as they pleased without any kind of verification of the number on Sony’s back-end.

The latest version of Rebug.me was released at the end of March, and the first guides detailing how to get modified Playstation 3 consoles onto the developer network came out around a week after that, the moderator said. Sony brought its Playstation Network down four days ago without offering many details about what happened and said it was beefing up security. It has acknowledged that an “external intrusion” brought down the network and that it is trying to beef up its security. Meanwhile, it has said it is still trying to determine if any user credit card information was stolen.

In a blog post this morning, Sony spokesman Patrick Seybold said, “I know you are waiting for additional information on when PlayStation Network and Qriocity services will be online. Unfortunately, I don’t have an update or timeframe to share at this point in time. As we previously noted, this is a time intensive process and we’re working to get them back online quickly. We’ll keep you updated with information as it becomes available. We once again thank you for your patience.”

The PlayStation Network, or PSN, is Sony’s attempt to engage its video-game console and PlayStation Portable audience in a larger online entertainment network that includes online games, movies and TV shows, as well as Sony exclusives such as Qore, a digital magazine, and The Tester original TV show. It’s a strategic asset for the console maker as more of the-video game audience moves into the online world.

There are 948 games now available in the PlayStation Network store, as well as 4,000 pieces of add-on content for games. There are also 31,000 movies and TV shows available for download, not counting the content available on Netflix, Hulu, and sports content.

VentureBeat has contacted Sony for comment and will update the story as soon as more information is available.

Am I reading this right? They pulled the plug on PSN for everyone because of a minority of pirates? So basically they're either very greedy or very pessimistic about the likelihood of getting a lid on this anytime soon. I love it

SHUT THE FUCK UP

seriously, do you think ANY of us care about exclusives? Only Sonytards do, because that's the only ammo they have for system warz arguments.

XBLA has tons of great shit that never goes on PSN. XBL hasn't had an outage since 2007.

They are both good consoles, but I think that Xbox has the advantage because there are no excessive updates that take hours to apply. With Xbox you can just jump on and play. Game updates take a couple of seconds.

Why the fuck am I even arguing with this guy

I'm totally fine with this 30 minute process, as I should be doing homework anyway. Thanks MS for putting me on the right track.

Yup PS3 is finished,games are seriously under-performing left and right,online is not working,people are jumping ship...stick a fork into it

Even 360 Portal 2 is destroying PS3 Portal 2

Quote

Over half of all boxed Portal 2 sales in the UK last week came on Microsoft's Xbox 360, according to GfK-ChartTrack data.

Just 35 percent of sales were of the PS3 version of the game - something of a surprise considering the cross-platform capability offered with the title's Steam features.

Sony will get totally annihilated at E3,after Nintendo conference nobody will talk about PSP2...stick a fork into it

MS will be busy showing revolutionary,innovative games for their record selling revolutionary hardware called Kinect +HALO 4

Nintendo will be talking about their new revolutionary home console/handheld hybrid

What will Sony show,glowing dildo?

They should pay Kevin Butthurt to entertain the audience for two hours.

As much as I'm excited for the NGP I know that this scenario is the likeliest. The only thing that could salvage some of the buzz is if they announce a crazy price tag, like $250 for the base model.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #167 on:** April 26, 2011, 07:15:58 AM »

Obviously when the NGP price comes out it will be annihilated, while Nintendo will cleverly not announce any pricing. Sony would be best to not talk about price for NGP until they absolutely have to.

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #168 on:** April 26, 2011, 07:23:44 AM »

They have already confirmed that the product's final name and pricing will be revealed at E3, so unless the recent developments have forced them to recalculate any of their strategies, it's going to happen.

Sure. I don't have many hexes left (mostly legendary battles) but my Guo Huai is close to being maxed out so i've been playing on hard. I still have a bunch of weapons to get and character skill charts to max.
