(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Despite earlier reports claiming the PlayStation Network would be up and running by May 31, Sony has publicly denied the existence of any such deadline.

Earlier today, a Bloomberg report quoted Sony spokesman Shigenori Yoshida as saying that though the company is "uncertain when it can resume ... services," the plan is to have the firm's flagship online service up and running no later than May 31.

Since that time Sony spokesman Patrick Seybold has asserted that there is no such deadline in place and that no new information exists on when the PSN will be able to resume service.

For those keeping score at home the PSN has been offline for nearly three weeks since the April 20 attack in which hackers broke into Sony's PlayStation Network/Qriocity system, compromising reams of valuable user information and forcing the electronics giant to pull down its entire online gaming infrastructure in the name of security upgrades.

Sony has recently stepped up its efforts to patch holes in its network, but given the historical persistence of the hacker community and its seeming blood oath to do as much damage to Sony as possible, the firm's refusal to commit to a deadline on the PSN's resurrection comes as no surprise.

Still, one hopes the company has some sort of plan in place. The longer this outage rolls on, the more Sony loses face with an increasingly impatient playerbase. Are any of you still anxiously clutching a plush Crash Bandicoot and ticking off the days until you can once again browse the PSN store.

Alos the 3.61 has a error in the update because sony is woeking on it.
My News was also the best.
i well keep you guys updated.

If PSN isn't restored by the end of this month I will be buying an Xbox, seeing as it's the end of my exams aswell.. Didn't bother about it being down for 2-3 weeks but this is taking it to far. I wouldn't be as angry if Sony told us a proper deadline. Every 'supposed' deadline always turns out not to be, is beyond a joke now.

Thats just bull....we have 2 wait for a long time

its not going to be that long hope.

I have been right all along and got no credit for it.
