Incoming PSN. Supposedly in 5 minutes. 1 am GMT...
@ flankhim...that's because its not online yet. Its just an update. Well its 1 am GMT right now. I live in the States where its central time were I live so 7.00. Not working yet. I'm still sure its going to be online with in the hour...maybe.

[flankhim]

Haha I just updated and got the 8002A203 code error.

[FAGOL]

Yh I suggest you download from the playstation site instead. I had that error 4 times lol. I went to the offcial playstation site and downloaded it in a few mins.

[artynerd]

Time to change my passwords.... but maybe download some new LBP2 levels first? :D

[LOGICWINS]

Can't wait for the free shit!

[Butt0n_m4sher]

Congratulations, Sony... anyone who wants you out of the gaming industry is a fool.

[LOGICWINS]

lol, where'd all that come from? Who said they wanted Sony out of the industry?

[zag]

The hackers and all the people with hacked PS3s who are supporting the hacker side.

[DirtyLary]

All the kids ripping themselves off selling their systems off and buying the same games on xbox..

[LOGICWINS]

"The hackers and all the people with hacked PS3s who are supporting the hacker side."

Ummm...wouldn't hackers want to keep Sony around so they have an extra system to hack and exploit for free games?

If hackers wanted everything they hacked to dissapear..then they'd have nothing to hack.

Common sense much?

[radphil]

"Ummm...wouldn't hackers want to keep Sony around so they have an extra system to hack and exploit for free games? "

The network just went down from an attack.....You really think they care about what happens to the companies? It's just like the psychology of a spoiled child.

If they can't get what they want, then no one can.

[Butt0n_m4sher]

you are telling me you witnessed all of this drama and never got the impression that some people want them gone?? well, I'm glad to see them bounce back from a vicious attack because gaming would not be what it is without Sony.

[starchild]

Who the hell would want Sony out of the gaming industry? Who said that?

Sony has a great console and some great games, and they are good for competition.

[LOGICWINS]

What time?

[trounbyfire]

[LOGICWINS]

[Jls1]

[Kee]

Awesome. Been dying to play some mortal kombat.

[trounbyfire]

geoffkeighley PSN is coming back online! Sony just sent out a press release.

from twitter

[Xenial]

You did it Sony, just when i was ready to endure weeks more of PSN downtime. Surprised me.

[Rybakov]

and here come the 5million psn is back articles

[Resistance_lord]

5 MILLION?! That's Over 9000!!!!!!!!

[thebudgetgamer]

i'm waiting for the

psn is back up, but is it too late? articles.

[Silly gameAr]

Better then the 5 million PSN is down articles ;)

[Swiftfox]

If you'ved loved the "PSN is Down" articals, then you'll love the next big hit.."PSN is Back"

Which include community favorites like:

PSN: Back but broken?
PSN is back, but is it secure?
PSN: Back but Sony could have done it better.

and everyone's personal favorite:

PSN is back, but where are the upgrades you never promised?

You can look forward to these titles coming your way to E3...and beyond.

[Silly gameAr]

Good point.

[TheColbertinator]

@Swiftfox

LMAO

[pody]

Haha you're so right. Just wait and see. Bubbles 4 that!

[UnagiMaster]

Bubbles for you.

[WildArmed]

LMFAO.
You winz the internet.

[Rage_S90]

Best comment i've seen all year the tman aproves bubbles to you

[yewles1]

Nah, only 15 articles, since it's positive Sony news.

[mrv321]

Expect 1 day of PSN is back article
Expect 1 week of PSN 'What went so horribly wrong' article
Expect 1 year of 'PSN is inferior because it has no security'

I expect to see an article that says

Sony should have spent more time on our security, but PSN should have came back up quicker despite the security risk.

[consolez_FTW]

hell yeah! this means PSN is soon to follow. It's been fun playing single player, but now I can play with friends again.

[Infamous2]

Everyone sing!!! http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[Lirky]

Im 50/50 believing this since how i just mostly read psn is down news, and just thought ok. Since most likely itll come back next week.

[Regulator]

As Mr T would say

"I pity the fools who sold their PS3!"

[negroguy]

Nice DC universe forum is back up.

[trounbyfire]

sadly true N4g will be flooded but i'll be online, lol

ps its flooded now they just need approval

[Obelisk92]

Finally I can register Portal 2 and play coop. I was dying for it.

[Fel08]

WOOT WOOT. Warhawk, here I come.

[jdfoster00]

EVERYONE GO TO THE PLAYSTATION EU BLOG/US BLOG AND YOU WILL HAVE A SMILE UPON YOU'RE FACE. I'M CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF DOWNLOADING THE UPDATE NOW AWAITING PSN =D

[blackburn10]

Oh yeah.I survived without PSN and still here. Take that trolls and haters. Suck it!

[Lirky]

Yeah that kaz video pretty much explains itll come back next-week i think they should make it come back saturday or sunday.

But next week is most likely instead of the 31st.

[pody]

SARPBC & MK ELITES! HERE I COME!

[TronEOL]

Oh wow. I'll be going back home on the 20th and I never expected it to be up by the time I got off work. Well, it looks like I'll be getting some gaming on when I get back. Not to mention syncing some trophies.

Also, I'll be buying LA Noire and Portal 2 when I get back. Looking forward to getting online again. :)

[pody]

Yeah, LA Noire is reserved in my wallet as well.

[Regulator]

Well I'm in London and it's 12.46am, I would stay up to see if PSN comes back in 15 minutes but I'm to tired to give a damn at the moment.

Sleep is more important.

[clintos59]
