Sony apologizes for PlayStation Network attack, outage

[rurouni18]

SEPPUKU!!! 

[FAB12UCB]

I do give Sony praise for been honest about the know vulnerability. Yes, it should have been patched the second it was noticed, but I am sure if it was Microsoft, they would have just denied everything, and say they had no known faults, even if they did. Sony, I praise you for your honesty, and hope that for that reason, your customers stay loyal.

[jamesdante1101]

@FAB12UCB I do agree with what you said about microsoft, but Sony isn't exactly honest. Sony tried to cover up the fact they were hacked and didn't tell anyone till way later.

[sinorsaint]

1:33 :D

[Orinandoporti]

@Tjackson31692 yeah me too, i like the japenese , because they are educated and make you feel important in all moment, i love sony and japenese

[PSYLODVICTIM3]

You know what else they should apologize for, the ps3 getting the YLOD in the first place and on the slim.

[SergioSource]

@PSYLODVICTIM3 blame the factories. I have my ps3 since launch and I play everyday, no bugs. my uncle got the slim on release too

[beatstunes]

F**k you Hacker

[shaboopie12]

[Tjackson31692]

I still cool with sony

[shaboopie12]

microsoft fanboys have an obsession with playstation i think it's because deep down inside the love playstation and remember the good times they had on the ps2

[leon1beltran]

Whatever Xbox sucks they dont have something like the NGP

[whitlcj1]

[MrV1C7OR]

I want to see Bill Gates prostrating before his clients when Xbox live gets down. I really want to see it.

[PEPWEY]

I'm feeling the same way. I can't wait for that day to come.

[CHiNAxWONDERSS]

@7PMHM stfu

[En11dj]

COGLIONI!!

[FahadBadokhon]

I am just waiting for the welcome gift pack now :D

[Morrnsta]

To me, it was a plot to get all PSP GO users to switch to CFW. Because they would be screwed otherwise. lol. Good thing they gonna give the NGP the flashcard media format...

[PokemonRoxz]

They should give us some thing back to us like free quad xp for mw2 and black ops and a 50 dollar gift card like if you agree

[Boomies559]

@PokemonRoxz theyre already losing money by not having the ps network on. why would they want to lose more money

[SergioSource]

@PokemonRoxz last time I checked the psn wasnt all about cod. they are going to give 30 free days of ps plus and a free psn game for life (I suspect it is starhawk) once the ps store is activated

[cubiesrock2]

Damn u Sony u think u fixed everything but u haven't... When I press "ok" to changing my password to I can play it says "an server error has occurred" and closes...

[MegaPacman25]

I want an commercial apology from Kevin butler in the oval office in a suit with a ps3 logo on his collar thumbs up if you agree?

[bigtexansfan]

It's back up, but in Mortal Kombat you can't redeem your Kombat Pass or get the alternate uniforms because the PlayStation Store isn't back up yet. But you can go to use free trail and play online.

[MrSpirit23]

at least they apolozied

[GinoTheSpy]

1 month extended online my ass, greedy fucks

[absting1]

how do you change your password when you go back online

[charlesdarwin55]

Wow Japanese people are EPIC!

[ceezr5723]

DON'T BE SORRY BITCH BE CAREFUL

[noobkiller4lol]

anynonymous we all know you want to get payback for wat they did to geohotz and for our freedom but just lett it go cmon



[oOTheDudeOo]

@noobkiller4lol anynonymous? it's anonymous and I think lulzsec was behind this actually...

[JIMELLINGTON]

they should call the yakusa to seek thos hacker bastards and slice the shit out of them.

[Netkiller3714]

Holy fuck. I bet all these mother fuckers Sueing Sony all weight no less then 400 pounds and still have cheesie powder all over their faces.

[Netkiller3714]

This is BULLSHIT!. Why theFuck is Sony Appologizing for the actions of someone else? I'm pretty sure it was SONY that got hacked. WTF kind of world are we living in that we now attack the victims? Some people ar fucking retarded, and need to get off their asses and do something outside for a change. Just because you can't play online doesn't mean the world is gonna end.

[GamerGirlYuna89]

Goes to show they actually do care that we are all pulling out our hair lol.

[PlatinumDaft]

I still love you sony and you're consoles i have grown up with since playstation 1

[LonelyJ55]

Playing single player is fun brings back memories of the good old days when there wasn't Internet. I'll never get xbox I'll buy a gaming computer if I get that desperate and WoW got me sick of online play a couple years ago.

[tehcod1]

it's obviously microsoft.

[22dgaf1904]

Seriously as said as it sounds I'm about to sell this shit and get a fag box.

[Netkiller3714]

@22dgaf1904 Why? You can't wait a few months? Are you that badly addicted? Is single player not good enough? You can't like do something outside?

[MegaGunster]

@22dgaf1904 ur a fagbox if ur that damn addicted to video games. go outside, play with sum friends(if u hav any) smell the air once in a while.

[lomakak]

I asked some of my friends that play PS3 if it is an inconvenient for them that PSN is down. They said 'Oh no, how would it be', it's funny how they used to spend most of the time playing multiplayer. To me, they probably sit there waving back and forth, with a controller trying to log on.

[latoywri]

THE HACKER IS BILL GATES!!! Plotting his EVIL Xbox Plans against us! D=<

[sxfn15]

Dear Sony please fix the fucking problem!!!

[JayFeliceW]

reap what you sow, I hope sony goes bankrupt. There games suck anyways.

[mgs1345]

i hope the ps3 hackers die of cancer god is all ways the best of planner of death when it takes people.

[CvijaFaQ]

No public harakiri? Why did I bother clicking....

[piez4132]

@CvijaFaQ hahaha :D best comment ever

[MrSilentsmoker713]

ahhhh sony...you guys really fucked up this time ...SMH...

[Jodapus]

Lol the free games better be good bitch's...

[TheRyan0001]

Guys it's going to be back may 14th

[Randomskateboard]

@TheRyan0001 how'd u know dude.

[meany1023]

@TheRyan0001 nope wrong may 31st

[briantexts]

Well at least they are sorry.

[calum769]

At first they said a couple of days, then like a week, now its 3 weeks and although Im mormally patient, my patience is wearing thin. How many people have been working round the clock, 2? If its not on by next thursday ( a month later) I think I might invest in an xbox, despite hating them immensely.

[piez4132]

It was microsoft, they dont want psnetwork to be better than xbox live :D

[meany1023]

@piez4132 u can already notice psn lost around 100 000 members to xbox most of em sold their ps3 for an xbox haha

[piez4132]

@meany1023 if they sold their ps3's, somebody had to buy it, dont you think? so number of ps3 users is the same. unless all those ps3's landed in a bin :D

[ATLchucktaylor90]

OMG its a good thing I like playing Single Player!! They should let every account get at least 20 FREE FULL GAMES/MOVIES to download in the Playstation Network

[DII117]

0:06 I forgive you Sony  ಥ_ಥ

[MrPittipla]

OMFG IT FUCKING WORKS AGAIN!!!

...o no, wait, it doesn't

[smicko77]

The PSN is down, the sun is in my hair, I smell the fresh air, I have a life after all.

[dangerlifetime2]

@smicko77 that is so true. So many people play games all day and dont realize they have a life. Showing themself wrong. People are getting lazier each day

[RetardedHunkaGarbage]

@smicko77 LIES

[killerdeal101]

its true apologize sony because im sitting my butt in my shair in computer tryin to know whats happening. i play ps3 with out online getting pissed all day and playin online in computer.when this didnt happen i use to play online never was in my computer.soo yeah apologize because i wont go to the crappy xbox yet.thank you

[bigtexansfan]

Now you know why this would NEVER happen to Microsoft. Now you know why XBOX Live customers are still gaming and we're sitting here pissed off. It's simple.. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!! XBOX Live cost $49.99/yr. And how much does PSN cost? As I said you get what you pay for.

[cheatmaster123123]

@bigtexansfan :P lol

[jrfps]

put only the first hacker in jail giving ass

that all these hackers disappear

[Mandela2pacforlife]

LET ME GIVE THE PSN FOUNDER A KARATE KICK

[luisimacox]

I've been extremely patient during the outage, but is already proved that they're lying and they think we're stupid. thats why they're not giving out any updates. Just one more thing to say: Fuck you SONY!!! _|_

[Mandela2pacforlife]

WHAAAT? SO SONY WAS FOUNDED BY CHINA?

[albenizski]

@Mandela2pacforlife Japanese

[TurkishHegemony]

@Mandela2pacforlife

Sony is a Japanese company you ignorant subhuman fuck

[Mandela2pacforlife]

@TurkishHegemony hey dude why are u always answering my questions? wannabe my girlfriend? lol

[narcolepticchairftw]

@Mandela2pacforlife Idiot.

[yummyplant]

Psn plus member = 12 months

additional = 1 month

Psn down = 3 weeks now , prolong to 31st May (more than 1 month)

Back to square one = 12 months +1 month - 1 month = 12 months :O

Where is my additional month?? =/// or rather a few weeks lost?

[MrNightwings74]

fuck you sony GO DREAMCAST 2 

[MrNightwings74]

@Mathguy1984 psn if free lol

[joshman5001]

omg china is hacking us!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[boxerdan1]

am gonna cry when it comes back on but they will be happy tiers

[ulooklikeadope]

According to a Tokyo-based Sony spokesman, the PlayStation Network and Qriocity services may not get a full reboot until May 31st.

Shigenori Yoshida told Bloomberg that Sony is currently uncertain when they can begin to restore services. He says that a rough plan to restart the services fully by May 31st “remains unchanged.”

[TitaniumEffects]

@ulooklikeadope we already know that also i don't care about full i just want the online play witch was suppose to be up yesterday

[homerit]

aargh so many days without hockey ultimate team on nhl11 . makes me crazy. hurry up

[Typhlosion100]

Everyone who used ur credit card check ur account on PSN and through the bank and its been almost 3 weeks since its been down

[80291000]

The power level of the hackers is OVER 9000!!!!!!

[lectorman21]

@80291000 WAT 9000? TERES NO WAY U SURE?

[TheBluezn2z]

@lectorman21 He is wrong within reason, the group Anonymous has over 9000 members, but many of them can not hack (If it was Anonymous who hacked the PSN) it's only a minority of them who can hack.

[cena7120]

@80291000 im starting to think anonymous should hack them again...... but just to turn the network on...... xD

[Auditurbosd]

YOU AMERICANS HAVE A BIG PENIS WE ASIAN HAVE A SMALL PENIS... SO SMALL

[Iamnatalie3]

I can't wait for psn to be back...oh the joy! Lol but still gahh sony hurry up! :(

[iQuickSc0p3zz]

OK Sony we accept ur apologize but 17 days without PSN if we get 20 day without it i will suicide.... seriously

[26lumma]

 I beat my record! I finished already 7 games IN FUCKING SINGLE GAMES

PSN give my money back from my credit

[SpeedKnotz]

@alanwakefiles

And it's my pleasure teaching you that $299.99 is not equal to $600.00

[SpeedKnotz]

@alanwakefiles

PS:

360 isn't $600, it never was, "you moron."

"LMAO."

[SpeedKnotz]

@alanwakefiles

Ok, thanks for letting me know, queer

[3ZOZ1KSA1BOY]

i now way sony have free network) Because thay have no network security (hh we busted you sony ( xbox 360 you pay for the xbox live a 60 $) Because thay have very very strong network

[Nurullah1200]

Why is everybody blaming Sony???? Its those SOB's who live in their mothers basements who did this! Many people don't see the obvious and start talking shit towards Sony.

[cybermartyr87]

@Nurullah1200 I agree to some degree, however; Sony is to blame as well. If they had a better security system this shit wouldn't have happened.

[Nurullah1200]

@cybermartyr87 Yes true, but unfortunately the hackers are pro's and no matter how strong the secruty, these guys seem to be able to break through :( What a bunch of losers, have you seen their demands? makes no sense at all LOL

Lets just hope that Sony is able to recover fast :)

[cybermartyr87]

@Nurullah1200 Which makes me come to the conclusion that it's an inside job. I just can't fathom hackers that great. Seriously who can just hack PSN's whole mainframe ya know. lol I just hope whatever the case may be. That it gets resolved quickly. I miss playing on the PSN. XBL is cool and all, but Uncharted 2's multiplayer is so much fun.

[Nurullah1200]

@cybermartyr87 I’m not sure if it’s an inside job, as you already know that Sony is considering this a serious matter. I would say either the hacking group "Anonymous" or rival companies. I heard that the FBI has caught around 40 “Anonymous” members in relation to the PSN Outage LOL better don’t mess with the FBI :)

I just hope PSN is back online soon with enhanced security, and don't forget the Welcome Back program :)

30 days free PS+ membership and more :D Can't wait

[Nurullah1200]

@cybermartyr87 What about Mortal Kombat? It looks amazing, I wonder how the online play will be... Can't wait for PSN to get back :D

[cybermartyr87]

@Nurullah1200 I wish I would have pre-ordered MK9, but I still haven't gotten the chance to play it. I hope PSN is up soon. I really miss it. Plus PSN is the only way i can play with my family members, because they hate XBL. lol BTW I heard once your Playstation Plus subscription runs out. All the items you purchased or got for free. Are taken away after it expires. I certainly hope it's not true.

[Nurullah1200]

@cybermartyr87 I know what you mean, I also use the chat system to keep in contact with my family. With the PSN it was also fun as I could also play online games with my 2 brothers :) MK is awesome, gotta wait for the online play, but the offline play isn't bad either :)

About the PS+ are you serious? that would really disappoint me if you lose all the PS+ purchases :( I hope its just a rumor lol it would really upset PS+ subscriber.

[cybermartyr87]

@Nurullah1200 I just got an update on the situation. I heard that PSN won't be fully operational till May 31st. That's a ridiculous amount of time to wait. lol

[Nurullah1200]

@cybermartyr87 :( unfortunately its true, but I hope its worth the wait :)

Another 3 weeks T_T the waiting is torturing me, if you watch the show South Park then I think what Eric Cartmen did was quite reasonable lol, by freezing himself for the release of the Nintendo Wii. he was too impatient to wait for the release so he froze himself :D

[ulooklikeadope]

I just found out the reason this happened was the assholes at Sony decided to brick the systems of the people that used the free download to mod their systems. These people are mad as hell and will return once Sony's network is back up. They do not intend on using any credit card information, but will mess with Sony in the future. So this is going to take more time then people think I bet. Sony has awakened a sleeping giant, or the Legion.

[JabberCT]

In the words of George Costanza,

"You can stick your sorrys in a sack mister!"

[2600642]

Fuck xbox I'm still a playstation fan no matter what! Xbox makes you pay to play online hahah dumb ass people

[ulooklikeadope]

They'll need more then Jackie Chan to get their credibility back after this fuck up. lol

[AllahPack217]

i didn't know Jackie Chan worked for playstation

[DarkFlip22]

Wonder how the future Generation systems going to be like, Maybe 212 Playtation 4's out of 67,545,000 sold? That or another set of 70 million people just loss 100,000 dollars just because some life-less loser decides to hack and enjoy it being a rich man with a click of a button.

Better pre-order my NES, and PSX, just in case.

[mucachis]

OK SONY STOP LYING, TELL US WHEN ARE YOU GONNA RESTORE IT, DAMN IT!!

[Dennoson]
