Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

"PlayStation Network is currently available in 60 countries"

But can't they do the maintenance by region?

Honestly, i have no idea. If they can then yeah, I guess it's not the ideal time for us Americans, but maybe it's down for maintenance all over the world? I'm not exactly positive how it works.

I think he may have just read that it said it was going to be down until 2am PT.

Edit:

I was able to log-in now, a little before 1AM Eastern.

The unfortunate thing is it went back online just as everyone that I play Club with in NHL 12 went offline, haha. But regardless, it's nice that I can watch some Netflix before going to bed now.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

I really really wish that Sony would release the PSN Store updates earlier in the day. Is there a certain reason as to why they wait until later in the day?

I always thought it's because they have to upload a lot of stuff (or update) for example, Mass Effect 3 will be up and that game is probably 17 gb as well as other stuff which can take hours, then they have to test it out to make sure it will work for all PS3's. That's just my theory though, should be up in another hour or 30 minutes if not then you can search for whatever you're looking for manually by 11PM and if you can't find it then we'll have to do the waiting game.

Mass effect had a midnight release on PSN. I guess they already had it uploaded onto the servers, just waiting til it's the time to release it.

I'm disappointed dungeon defenders didn't win one of the categories I'm not too interested in the other games.

I bought Journey and recommend it thoroughly. It has a very Ico/SOTC vibe, only without combat.

Planning on getting it next week. Isn't it only available to + members this week? I'm not currently subscribed to +

[Burns11]

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

Yeah, just for + members for a week. It came with a free dynamic theme as well, and you can preorder it and get the theme apparently, but it's not a very good theme (a bit too bright and too much movement for my tastes as it zooms and switches the concept art). Personally I use the SOTC theme that was on disc with the HD remakes.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

I guess I missed the boat with the new playstation network thing. I don't download much, just mainly play the Show and a little Red Dead Revolver, and now the whole "Activating" or "Deactivating" my PS3 has me all jacked up.

I can't download the online pass and get online w MLB 12 (the whole reason I own a PS3) and after two days and about 6 hours of my valuable time messing with it, I swear I am ready to chunk the whole system into the street.

I am beyond frustrated, and being an old man I can't help but ask why did they have to "fix" the )(*^)*&%^ *O%^ ( system if it wasn't broken? I had no problems whatsoever last year getting online w MLB 11. BUt now, thanks to their stupid online pass system I am screwed.

I don't think I am asking for much. I want to play ONE game and be able to get online w it. That's it.
