Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); As many of you may know, Playstation Network as been down for almost a week. A first SONY said they shut down PSN because of a suspected DDOS attack from 'Anonymous' but then a few day later they released a statement saying the Playstation Network has suffered a external intrusion (hacked). Many people suspect it is the Cyber-terrorist 'Anonymous' But Anoymous has said they have had nothing to do with these attacks on PSN.

Sony has said that they have got rid of PSN and started to re-build it from the ground up again those they can implement some more security in the PSN System. Trouble is SONY has had a long history of messing things up. Like when they released a System Update but then re-updated it because it had security issues, the Jailbreak Dongle, CFW, CFW Jailbreak. So that makes me think SONY might stuff up this 'new' Playstation Network.

Anyway. It has been rumored that Playstation Network will be up and running today, 26/04/2011 (Australia) or tomorrow. So Users may expect PSN to be back up and running soon, or a while...

But the thing that I wonder the most. Are we going to get anything in return for this massive problem (SONY being SONY with dumb the issue down) Because im sure many people would like to get something in return for this problem that should NEVER happen on a Gameing Network that stores people personal information and credit card details. What I mean is I want SONY to do something that pretty much says Sorry for this.

Anyway If you have any questions I found this page pretty useful. it respond to FAQ's many people have about the PSN Outage

This is what I have heard a lot after surfing the Internet for a while.
The Playstation Network Hack Attacks are not the group Anonymous.
Apparently it is a former member of Anonymous who hacked it. But unfortunatly its rumored that he has stole some people Credit Card details.

Overall I don't think that we can blame Sony. It's not their fault that someone discovered a certain exploit and used it several times to take down the network. The xbox was hacked waaaay earlier and if people tried to, they could probably hack into xbox live.

Yes, I know its not entirly Sony's fault because some exploited it. But as a Gameing Network that stores peoples iinformation such as Credit Card and Housing details they shouldnt be any exploits, it should be the the securest Server ever.

Hopefully we all will be playing online soon, and this mess will not affect anybodys accounts. Even though I was hit with the derank hack on MW2 and still haven't gotten it straightend out, things could be worse. Right now I'd rather be firing the death machine, or AC130 would do.

I hope it is up soon, but on the 25th they said they still didn't have a timeframe, so don't get your hopes up
