Sony’s PlayStation Network Goes Down, "No News On When It Will Be Back Online"

Sony's PlayStation Network Goes Down, "No News On When It Will Be Back Online"For the better part of the day, PlayStation 3 owners have been unable to take their consoles online via Sony's PlayStation Network, a seemingly unplanned network outage that the company says it's "working hard on restoring."

PlayStation Network service appears to have been interrupted early on Wednesday morning, with functionality still not restored. The company said via its official PlayStation Twitter account, "We're aware that some of you are having issues trying to log into PSN. We're working to resolve the issue, and we'll update you here."

The company's European arm has offered more frequent, but still vague, updates on the downtime. "PlayStation Network engineers are working hard on restoring the service," Sony said through its PlayStation EU blog. "However, we have no news on when it will be back online."

An alert posted to the PlayStation Community site reads, "The PlayStation Network is down temporarily. This is unscheduled maintenance and we are unsure how long it will be down. Don't worry, SONY is aware of this and the engineers are all over it."

Kotaku contacted Sony Computer Entertainment America reps for comment and clarification on the unscheduled downtime, but has not heard back yet.

PlayStation Network services was severely interrupted in mid-April, after an "external intrusion" compromised the network's security and exposed users' personal information. That extended downtime lasted until May 14, when Sony restored some of PSN's services. Hopefully, today's situation is far less severe and will be remedied soon.

I don't discard that this was an advice from a group of hackers and they were testing.(My conspiracy)

only scei was down because i was still sign on with japan and on home from 10am to 3pm

Hey it was small outages in na wednesday not whole na. People how where sign in remand on. Those not well you know no signing in. Here my psn was down from 10am est. to 5:30pm est. Was told by sony outage was for some repairs and should be up shortly. Yeah 7 1/2hours later it was up. Was it repair or hackers again who knows. But funny truth my phone company decides to update at same time. Yeah that sucked it was out 5 hours. So I got me more trophies and had some fun playing my new games.

Lol, it was almost kinda nice when the psn got hacked last time. It gave me a chance to focus on what the Playstation is all about which is the games. My games are beginning to stack up against me once more with titles such as Heavy Rain and Dante's Inferno not even having been touched.


I'm game for the network being down for a day. We could call it "catch up on your games Tuesday." Because let's be honest, nothing important ever really happens on a Tuesday.
