PSN + SOE hacked

That's why I added the "if".

I don't think they care either. No one supported them when they tried to protest properly, so they've gone back to this.

Then why do it? They'll get even less support now. My daughter got a PSP Go for her birthday (yesterday) and I'm unable to set up an account and download games for it. If anyone is responsible for this outage they are just pissing a lot of people off who don't work for Sony. If that was their aim, mission accomplished.

Most of the comments on gaming blogs/twitter/facebook are bitching at Sony for not being able to run a competent service. Anonymous might not even be involved, people are just assuming.

EDIT: What Rik said.

At least it's sunny. I'm outside in my garden 8-)

Plus you could always make a sandwich or wash your face.

Sony are just doing a new version of Easter.

It is dead but it will rise again, everyone will be overjoyed.

Yeah alright, Rik.

I can't get online to merk all of the fresh n00bs in Motorstorm

I'm getting PSN is under maintenance now instead of an error code.

I am saying nothing!!!!

Never did like the PSN Error code. It seems ridiculous you'd force people to hunt down what the code means on the internet, instead of just putting up a 'PSN is not working' message. This is not a PC! Sod off with your vague numbers that mean nothing to me.

Like I said, they need to grow up.

"Boo hoo, no one supported our little protest about an 'issue' that 99% of PS3 owners clearly don't give a gooseberry fool about about! Well, we'll show them!"

Pathetic.

They could also just be saying that because they know the action makes them look like a bunch of banana splits.

Does this happen all that often on the service as it is rather convenient that it goes down when Anonymous have been targeting them recently.

GiantBomb's been offline for two days now.

I'v experienced something similar no more than twice in 3 years, but on both occasions it was sorted on the same day, in a matter of hours in fact.

Different problem. From what I've gathered, one of Amazon's cloud service centers is down. Reddit is also affected.

PSN is free.

Well it is, you paid for that copy of Socom Confrontation or MAG though, enjoy the single player whilst playstation notwork is down.

Anonymous didn't do this though. They always announce it even if people don't like it. This is Sony problem.

They are ''Anonymous'' . No one really knows who they are and they honestly don't give a gooseberry fool. If they did they would say they did it.

Could that somehow affect Sony?
