(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Live in North America and experiencing problems logging into PSN with your password? According to a notice on the official US PlayStation forums it might have been reset due to some "irregular activity" on the service.

"If you are getting an error that your PSN account password is incorrect, you may need to reset it," the notice reads. "We routinely monitor for irregular activity, and if such activity is detected, we may sometimes reset passwords of affected SEN accounts to protect consumers and their account information."

If you're not sure how, reset instructions can be found here.

This follows a similar reset on the European PSN last week, and is likely a precautionary measure which will affect only a small number of users. Still, let us know if you've had any problems with your account and we'll be sure to report any updates.
