Playstation Network Undergoing Maintenance Today

The Playstation Network is undergoing maintenance today. Users will not be able to access the PSN during the construction.

[Beg For Mercy]

was wondering why i couldn't sign on

[taco_tom237]

oh thank god i thought it was only me getting this error message

[4pocalyps3]

i can sign in now but i can't access playstation store. this error keeps coming up ¬_¬

[Name Last Name]

i couldnt log on but i downloaded an update and now i can

[randomwiz]

i got scared too, but can anyone remember the last time there was maintenance on psn?

[IdleLeeSiuLung]

Shouldn't Sony announce scheduled maintenance in advance? I vaguely remember this happening in the past too, just blam, we are maintaining our servers... sorry.

I guess maintenance seemed to have been short lived though.

[BX81]

PSN doesn't send out notices when the service is going to be down? I know XBL does it. I have PSN but I'm not on it much. Thanks.

[agentace]

they dont send out notices because you can still use it the same as normal but the store might not work everytime or something

[TheHater]

But now, I am getting this new error message I never seen before. 8002A402

[mobius387]

yup, im getting the 8002A402 screen as well. very interesting...

[BX81]

Yeah very interesting until you realize error:8002A402 means that Samuel L. Jackson is on his way to your house to open a can of whoop a$$. Sorry I thought it was funny.

[Snake Raiser]

You know what? I came to this article and I though "If I go to the open zone I bet there will be some xbox fanboy saying something really dumb." I must be a physic or something.

[thedarkvault]

us xbox users had a day of maintenance not even a week an a half ago.

doh!

[user3915800]

I have no good games for it, network its always down, it keeps collecting dust, my blu ray its only good for movies, it freezes a lot, I keep downloading mandatory crap to my hard drive, YLOD twice on me, PS3 customer service suck, the competition has better games, the six- asses its innacurate, major studios wants to get out from producing anything on the PS3, and now Im getting a pink dildo. WTF does it all mean? I cant take it anymore, my friends tell me how homo my system is and I cant run anywhere after the pink dildo was announced.

Help, oh help, oh help. And the Xbots droids sounded like gladiators giving me the finger and saying something like awooh, awooh, awooh. WTF.

[cryymoar]

wow, when was the last time it was down?
the only thing i notices was the PS Store wasn't working,
but i just wanted to browse, not shop.
I sent a message to my friend VIA THE PSN asking him if the PS Store was working for him, and he said no.
YUP THE PSN ISN'T WORKING ALRIGHT!

Even if the network did go down, it's okay, i'm not paying for it.
And i have plenty of SP games to play. MGS4, Motorstorm 2, Uncharted, SSDHD. My games don't all rely on MP to work.

[dogmeat eater]

probably till 4 maybe? Thats my guess

[Azures]

It's tuesday after all, designated maintenance/update day.

[Peppy la Moca]

PSN is back online

[belal]

you are an idiot my friend, atleast we get maintenance and not RROD :)

[BX81]

No you get YLOD if you have a PS3! See both systems have faults. I know it's hard to understand that both systems can break but it happens.

[GameHero]

ylod is just some crap that xbots made up so their RROD doesn't looks so bad..Ok let me put it to you this way. 360 have over a 33% failure rate...Ha! you FAIL!

[Pennywise]

Why is this news?

Someone should make this article: I am about to go to the bathroom.

[Elvfam511]

Yeah because we knew there was going be maintenance today...

[Pennywise]

maintenance on a Tuesday for a couple hours?? Who woulda thunk it.

[STONEY4]

"Someone should make this article: I am about to go to the bathroom."

Well...

[Pennywise]

omg too funny. I dont know how I missed that one!!

I mean seriously, that story about yobro needing to sh!t is about as relevant as this crap.

[OneArmMonk]

Is still not back on for me. I want to play BlazBlue online:)

[BubbleSystemSuck]

Online but...

ERROR 80023017 on Account Settings and PSN Store

[karan8624]

They should warn us, like the day before some sort of popup saying playstation network will go under scheduled maintainance....

[Godmars290]

You mean like the ticker news feed, that no one looks at?

[JHUX]

hahahah

[GiantEnemyCrab]

It's free what do you expect? They don't owe anyone anything and can take the thing down for a month and the users have zero room to complain.

[mobius387]

as of right now, i can only not access the store.

[ZOMBIEMAN1]

so if you have a european PSN account you will sign in and acces everything

[ArcticWolfUK]

naa eu was down earlier

back up now tho

[Voozi]

Is anyone else having trouble logging into the forums?

http://boardsus.playstation...

Keeps giving me the maintenance message D: (but people above are saying maintenance is over)

[squadass99]

well im assuming that the whole network will be available at 19.25 BST, thats a guess though.

"Hi everyone,

The PlayStation Network is currently undergoing maintenance, which should last until 19:25 tonight. You will not be able to sign into the PlayStation Network during this time.

However, if you are already signed into the PSN, either on any of our sites or on your PlayStation 3, you should remain signed in until you choose to sign out.

-Moshii "

http://community.eu.playsta...

[Voozi]

What's the BST time now? So I can convert that over to USA time.

Thanks :3

[squadass99]

well, its late :D but as of now it is 19:40, people are complaining that the PS store and account management isnt working

[Voozi]

Ah, so it should indeed be up...hmm...*checks forums*...hey logged in now.

Thank you good sir, bubbles to you :D

[mrv321]

Lucky I got inFAMOUS a singleplayer game.

[KingEamon]

I'm getting 80023017 error when trying to access the PS store on british and american accounts. Maybe it has something to do with the extra payment options they said they'd be bringing.

[Sanhlami]

beaten killzone 2 while waiting for psn to work again.

[Grown Folks Talk]

PSN is NEVER down.

[Jt-man98]

haha, it was but i can go on the store and everything now, but cod 4 is being really figgin annoying

[CryWolf]

360 fanboys or girls are everywhere now, but at lease we are not getting the RROD and a new console next year for some Project Natal bullsh**.

[gumgum99]

that could explain why I couldn't get into the playstation store earlier today.
