| PSN is getting lots of outages and errors today with people experiences problems in the week. No official reason has been given for the outages but many in the community are pointing the finger at the Anon group.
Sony have said they are working on the fix with no ETA on when the problems will be sorted. _________________  |

| Just to let you know, it's pretty much 100% being caused by a hacker group called "Anonymous" due to the fact that they have been causing carnage to PSN ever since sony took up a court case against "GeoHot" who produced and released the jailbreak online which allowed all of the hacks that we had on PS3 games a few months ago to occur. Sony dropped the court case and instead made a legal agreement with GeoHot. Anonymous have been attacking PSN ever since by making it harder for people to sign in and claimed earlier this week that they had stopped their attacks on PSN as they did not want to anger sony customers. However, given the situation this seems likely to be the work of Anonymous. Especially due to the fact that Socom 4 has just been released and so Sony are very unlikely to dedicate a whole day to maintenance so early after the release. _________________  |

| Nope typed it all myself, BITCH. I'm just so good at this language called "English" that I can make it look like someone who's English wrote it. It's a useful skill to have.  _________________  |

| Wow so it really was a voluntary outage.
I think Sony is not telling us something though. _________________  |
