What i'm thinking is that if we can't log into PS Network, then how the hell are we going to patch this? :P Unless they release it on a disk or something and we upload it, without the Network online I don't see how we can patch this.

Want to hear your views Happy :confused:

Back from school to find this, Pfft! GEIF MW2

they wont release it on a disk.., they will just put it on the playstation/sony site to download, and put it on storage device and install it on PS3 that way..

Why would someone do all this AND void their warranty just so they could play their PS3 for the extra day until this is fixed..... Go outside lol :p

I just done this is took all of 10minutes and now i'm error free! I would recommend doing it if you can't wait for Sony to get it sorted.

My warranty was over anyway so removing the sticker didn't matter.
