[Updated-4/24/11]Playstation Network offline

If your planning to do some online gaming via PSN in your Playstation 3 and get welcomed by error code 80710A06 you’re not alone. The Playstation is currently having issues and could last a day or two.

UPDATE – Sony admits that their systems have been attacked by hackers which forced them to pull the plug and do some maintenance. It’s been more than 48 hours and even i’m getting a little impatient at Sony’s slow reaction to resolve this issue.

”An external intrusion on our system has affected our PlayStation Network and Qriocity services. In order to conduct a thorough investigation and to verify the smooth and secure operation of our network services going forward, we turned off PlayStation Network & Qriocity services on the evening of Wednesday, April 20th. Providing quality entertainment services to our customers and partners is our utmost priority. We are doing all we can to resolve this situation quickly, and we once again thank you for your patience. We will continue to update you promptly as we have additional information to share.”

Check out the Playstation Blog frequently for more updates, i sure am since i want some gaming online done.

UPDATE – The group Anonymous denies involvement with the Playstation Network’s issues. [Source]

I’ve experienced it myself. As you try to connect the Playstation Network, you see yourself unable to connect with an error code placed on your screen.

“While we are investigating the cause of the Network outage, we wanted to alert you that it may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the service completely back up and running,” said SCEA Senior Director of Corporate Communications Patrick Seybold in a recent update on the Playstation Blog. “Thank you very much for your patience while we work to resolve this matter. Please stay tuned to this space for more details, and we’ll update you again as soon as we can.”

People believe it’s the work of Anonymous, a group of angry hackers taking action to the recent lawsuit between Sony and George Holtz. George Holtz is the person that has broken the Playstation 3’s security systems and Sony has taken action by suing the hacker. That lawsuit created Anonymous, who is now attacking Sony by infiltrating their systems.

They mentioned way back that they won’t be attacking the customers but the Sony employees only. There’s no actual proof yet if this is the work of Anonymous but whatever the reason to the Playstation Network’s outage, let’s hope it gets fixed soon.

    Ok don’t always believe what you read. No, playstation network is still not up and Sony has no idea when it will be. So for everyone who “thinks” it will be back up at 5:00pm today, you might as well grab a book and do something constructive with your time as no one knows not even the CEO knows how long it will take. Do you really think that it takes a few hours to fix?????? Ummmm No. I guess you never had a virus on your computer either……………………!

      first of all, there is no graphics difference.
      second of all, xbox had a 2 week long outage.
      third of all, u have to pay for xbox.
      forth of all, you retarded. you should probably read up and get your facts straight before you start bitching and moaning.

    i have been looking at the comments for 4 days now i see people that are not worried about it on here telling other people not to complain about the problem if your not worried about it then why are u on here posting telling other people to get a life that is not going to make anybody feel better for us gamers that pay so much a month to play the online games on ps3 it’s not free for us then on top of that some of us pay for netflix so we are losen our hard earned money everyday it’s psn is down so why don’t the people that are not worried about it and like the outside and going fishen and stuff like that just stay off here and let us complain because we have that right we pay for it so stfu.

    • mike
      April 25, 2011 at 8:55 am

      you can still log in to netflix if psn is down you just have to keep saying ok to the error message that says you have to be signed in to psn to use netflix.

  26. superman
    April 25, 2011 at 5:49 am

    i pay 14.99 a month for dc universe online and i pay 10.00 a month for netflix so for the people saying psn is free then why is there psn cards to purches online game time if it was free we wouldn’t have to pay to play the online games we want so if you don’t have any clue what your talking about u need to stfu.

    April 25, 2011 at 6:18 am

    we really do deserve some real answers, this is bs… sony is really showing how much they care about their costumers/supporters by keeping us in the dark about this whole situation and not letting us know when we can get back online! all they have said is we are sorry this may take 1-2 whole days and we basically have no real answers for you… well it’s been 4 days so cool. if i wanted to play games by myself i would just play my snes

  32. superman
    April 25, 2011 at 6:20 am

    i know right the is bull they keep saying 1 or 2 whole days then keep saying that if psn is expected to be down for a long period of time they need to atleast tell the gamers that.

    ATTENTION EVERYONE…CALM DOWN. Playstation network is down for the moment due to hackers. we all know it but thats what happens,its taking a long time to fix because they’re trying to prevent this from happening again, and they have to keep it quiet so the public doent go insane and people (like quite a few of you) start freaking out and change over to xbox live…which is worse, if you go to the playstation website there is a gray bar you can click on that will give you this information
    “We sincerely regret that PlayStation Network and Qriocity services have been suspended, and we are working around the clock to bring them both back online. Our efforts to resolve this matter involve re-building our system to further strengthen our network infrastructure. Though this task is time-consuming, we decided it was worth the time necessary to provide the system with additional security.

    We thank you for your patience to date and ask for a little more while we move towards completion of this project. We will continue to give you updates as they become available.

    During this time you may:
    Not be able to access the PlayStation®Store
    Have difficulty signing in to the PlayStation®Network
    Not be able to play online games
    See a maintenance page when attempting to access the PlayStation®Network

    Note: When you log into the PlayStation Network, a message may appear which states, “the PlayStation Network has been suspended”. This does not mean that your account has been suspended; it simply means the PlayStation Network has been taken offline. Please wait until the maintenance window has passed before attempting to connect to the PlayStation Network again. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”

    Hello everyone! I found a site where someone said that the PSN will return on Tueday (Monday in JP Servers). Sadly i read this yesterday and i dont remember the link so i cant really give proof. All i can say is Dont get your hopes set to high but there is a chance it will be back tomorow.

  165. Messenger
    April 25, 2011 at 10:11 pm

    Ok i found my source ill put what they say and also a link

    If your gaming network is down and you know it, clap your hands. You should hear the furious sound of clapping emanating from Sony headquarters, as we’re now into day four of the PlayStation Network outage.

    For those of you still scratching your heads as to why your console is throwing up error message “80710A06” whenever you try to connect up to play some online Mortal Kombat, Portal 2, or SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs–talk about a bad week for the network to go down–let’s recap.

    The outage officially began on Wednesday with Sony itself noting, that evening, that, “We’re aware certain functions of PlayStation Network are down.” The note came straight from the mouth, er, keys of senior director of corporate communications and social media Patrick Seybold. And that was just the beginning.

    Seybold jumped back onto the Sony PlayStation blog on Thursday with a bit of worse news: The network was still down, Sony was investigating, and it might be a day or two before gamers can jump online and frag their friends again. The online community reacted with a bit of frustration, but patience: It’s not like major online console services haven’t been down for inexplicable—and longer—periods of time before.

    Friday rolled around and Seybold brought back the same news as before: Network’s still down. However, he did shed a bit of new light on the reasons behind the downtime. According to Seybold, Sony purposefully shut the network down to address an “external intrusion” that hit the PlayStation Network and the company’s Qriocity service.

    Sony didn’t go into any additional details as to what that “external intrusion” might have been, but unverified reports suggest that a denial-of-service attack targeted the primary PlayStation Network server. As well, additional denial-of-service attacks allegedly went after PlayStation Network servers that house user account information and, according to the report from PlayStation Universe, administrator developer accounts were even breached at one point.

    Initial suggestions pointed fingers at Anonymous–the hactivist group that previously targeted Sony with alleged denial-of-service attacks. Pundits thought that Anonymous had re-upped its retribution campaign against Sony for the company’s legal pursuit against alleged PS3 jailbreaker George Hotz.

    According to a Saturday blog update from Seybold, Sony is taking this unexpected moment to rebuild its infrastructure even better than before–hence the continued delay.

    “Though this task is time-consuming, we decided it was worth the time necessary to provide the system with additional security,” Seybold wrote.

    Sony officials have yet to issue an ETA for when the network might reappear. However, the source speaking to PlayStation Universe claims that Japanese servers should start reappearing on Monday, with U.S. and E.U. servers popping back up on Tuesday.

    In other words, hang tight, PlayStation 3 fans: Everyone gets their turn on the wheel of downtime.

    we believe that an unauthorized person has obtained the following information that you provided: name, address (city, state, zip), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID. It is also possible that your profile data, including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip), and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers may have been obtained.

    If you have provided your credit card data through PlayStation Network or Qriocity, out of an abundance of caution we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained.

    You people are sooooo damn f*ked up!! the 2 weeks downtime of xbl is nothing compared to being hacked like this! Face it people the 2 weeks of xbl downtime is over! its history! its gone! its nothing now! compared on what’s happening now faggots! dont tell me you’re still gonna lick Sony’s butt knowing that all your confidential info’s are out because of them, you foolish ps3 fanboys thinking ~ohh my graphics is better~ ~ohh ps3 is better than any console~ well I say ~ohh I know your address~ ~oh I know your credit card number~

    I saw on the news that the hackers can get your information.They can get your email, where you live and credit card number. Someone is representing all Sony PSN users. This means Sony has to testify in court. This is what I saw online and on the news. Sony said the hacking started April 17-19 and they claim that they did not know the hackers could get personal information. Also for all you gay Black Ops losers this is a chance for you to get outside and get a life. I’m pretty sure you haven’t seen daylight for a while and it will be good for you.
