(Update) PlayStation Network down for extended twelve hour maintenance

Wednesday, June 9, 2010

PSNDeathStar

*UPDATE 5:10pm CDT: A new Tweet from Sony just informed people that maintenance is still going on, but a number of players have been able to get online. Are you one of the lucky ones? Let us know!

Hey fatslappers, in case you were planning to get on the PlayStation Network today, or the PSN as all the cool kids call it, you should note it is going down soon. During the upcoming downtime, you may experience difficulties logging in, and you won’t have access to the PlayStation Store or Account Management for 12 hours! Holy spanks! 12 flipping hours!

This is due to an extended maintenance period lasting from 8am Pacific to 8:30pm Pacific. As noted on the PlayStation blog, Sony apologizes for the delays, but they are likely trying to improve your end user experience. My only concern is whether I can login and play Joe Danger when I get home from work later today. If you haven’t purchased Joe Danger yet, you should immediately before the downtime!

Check out the PlayStation Twitter feed for updates regarding when the PSN is back up, or keep checking back here at MMOMFG to keep your sanity during the downtime.

  • Jay

    Why won’t those jackasses start the fix at 8pm and Finish at 8am…..

  • Christopher

  • Lumby

  • josh kirkland

    what time will it be back up for eastern time.
    i think 11:30 but im not for sure

  • Harlie Rayne

    Dude, 12 hours is a long time to do without my PS home buds!!!

  • shane

    ow well, get over it and quit crying, they wouldn’t have maintenance if it was up too them, think about right now people could be buying stuff off there store, but atm its down. so stop crying about it

  • Fat Slapper

    playstation makes updates to keep your system and online play running faster and more smoothly. sooo… you can either lag like hell when you play online or not play for 12 hrs so they can keep it under control. i wanna play too but it is what it is!! check out Philly Tech Squad on Facebook

  • Skinnydude

    @will: yea and i bet ur just as obese as all the other fat kids so shut your mouth and stop being such a judgemental douchebag

  • Mag Hoe

    As someone else noted above, they could have done this during off peak hours. Sony has joined the scheduling of the average road construction projects. God forbid they work at night.

    On a lighter note, at least we’re not paying for this yet.
