PSN Shut Down Indefinitely [4 comments]

The PlayStation Network has been down for a few days now, and everyone’s been wondering when it would start working again. It looks like no one, not even PSN, knows that answer. According to the PlayStation Blog:

“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.”

Sad day. Funny or Die seemed to capture our feelings about this perfectly:

Are you on PSN? What are your thoughts?

I personally will be able to continue playing Pokemon on the DS and dancing my little heart out on the Wii, so I’m just fine.

EDIT: Playstation has updated the blog stating that PSN has been compromised, and your personal information has been obtained by an unauthorized person. Might be a good time to start changing those passwords and requesting a new number for your credit card. The entry can be found here.
