Playstation Network Downtime: UPDATE
After a lack of voice from Sony following the downtime of the Playstation Network currently being experienced by PS3 users worldwide, they have released the following statement concerning the matter:
"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."
According to Sony, the downtime is as a result of an "external intrusion", with the network having been down since April 20th.
More updates as we get them...
