PSN Sign-in Problem Due to Issue in Japan

26star: Still frustrated with PSN service being down? According to the Playstation RLS twitter, it looks like the problem is in Japan, and engineers are trying their best to identify and fix the problem. Hopefully PSN service will be up soon, and won't last as long as the previous outage.

Here are screenshots of the tweets...

Warprincess1164775d ago

I know. I want to play Mortal Kombat online.

GodofWarHasReturned4775d ago (Edited 4775d ago )

i agree 100 percent lol either anonymus is disagreeing with my comment and yours or xbox users are happy with what is happening

ksense4775d ago

Maybe this has something to do with the whole Sony Japan shutting down in the summer to save energy.

You could just play offline and try to unlock more things in the krypt :P Anyways, its times like this that make me glad to have gotten an Xbox 360. No one knows how long it will be down so it comes in handy.

Dee_914775d ago

... well this give me time to finish crysis
been so busy with gt5 and yakuza

BulletToothtony4775d ago

I'm a try to finish Valkyria Chronicles :D

TheDeadMetalhead4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

Fine, I guess I'll go play Cross Edge...Or do that paper that's due...Or go outside...

SonyWarrior4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

amazon servers went down today psn is hosted on them. nothing to do with anono or japan. the japan thing is just stupid lol at kids these days

Ilikegames764774d ago

If you're playing GT5 and on the day the PSN is down, it is also your birthday. Do you get the free car too?

RedDevils4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

funny I always enjoy playing offline more, no noobs no hackers, just couple of buddy enjoying the games together :)

Time to kill some BOTs on Killzone 3

Joni-Ice4774d ago

No....its time to get those other trophies on the story mode.

showtimefolks4774d ago

i guess time to play bioshock

tigertron4774d ago

I think its immature that people are disagreeing.

Cyorg4774d ago

This is getting annoying. I cancelled my cable and switched to Hulu, Netflix, and MLBTV to save money. Now I have no TV at all because I can't sign in. I hope this gets resolved soon.

Crazyglues4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

I have a Question, and it may seem silly but why in the world does Sony not have a US PSN... something in Japan should not bring down the network all over..

There should be a US PSN - EU PSN - Japan PSN - all with their own servers, all linked up to each other..

So no one server station can bring down the whole network..???

Seriously why is their only one in Japan. -That just doesn't make good business sense..

I wanna play some zombies!! and SOCOM 4!!!

Shadow Flare4774d ago

Did you wave your hand like obi-wan kenobi when you said that?

Dart894775d ago (Edited 4775d ago )

Come on guys sure it may be for a day or two before they get PSN up and running but i'm sure everyone can use a break and go get some fresh air outside.It's pretty sad that people need a gaming machine just to have fun when instead you can be outside playing sports or something.It's pretty sad when i look at my neighborhood and see not one single person outside playing unlike in my childhood where everyone was outside playing,.

Edit:I tried

TBM4775d ago

Lol I agree with you gaming is just a hobby, its not a full time job.

I love gaming as much as the next person but is not my whole life. If I you can't play a little online play a single player game or just go and hang with some friends.

OC_MurphysLaw4775d ago

I get your point...but what if I took my break away from gaming the past few days, and just got Socom in and was looking forward to playing now?

I wont die of waiting...but you have to admit its annoying especially since nobody is really saying what the true problem is.

HeavenlySnipes4775d ago

Yeah, its not to nice outside this time of year....

DragonKnight4775d ago

NO KIDDING!! I live in Toronto, and we got teased with a day of 27 degrees a few weeks ago, everyone was so happy. Then, nothing but rain, cold, wind, rain, snow, rain, wind, cold. This Saturday it's supposed to be 17, sounds nice right? Well guess what, MORE RAIN! *Sigh* It's April 21st. It's NOT supposed to be like this.

I feel sorry for the people who live in Alberta and Manitoba. They've had it the worst.

rezzah4775d ago

Yea thought it was gona be an early summer, turned out winter was just playing peek-a-boo =p

Ravenor4774d ago

^^^

No it most certainly is not nice outside.

sak5004774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

Lucky for us then /sarc we get rain twice a year and avg temp is 95~100 degs. I wish we have some cold weather in this desert of Dubai.

PS3n3604774d ago

warm and sunny here on the west side of Van Isle. Working in a t-shirt today.

HeavenlySnipes4774d ago

I live in Toronto also. That week of nice weather was really nice. Now all of a sudden its cold and rainy :(

DaTruth4775d ago (Edited 4775d ago )

Last year it was beautiful, just something is really wrong with the weather this year!

Usually in t-shirts by now!

I'm more into single player games, so this is not the end of the world for me!

rezzah4775d ago

Something was wrong last year too.

It rarely snowed at all during the winter (November and december)

DaTruth4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

Yeah, last year was ridiculously on the warm side and this year is ridiculously on the cold side! Wasn't really complaining about the warm though; since I got injured at work, snowboarding is over for me and now winter is completely worthless.

I was tanned in late March last year!

Soldierone4775d ago

Come to AZ and say that....It gets to 110 plus every day of summer and its a complete DRY HEAT so it drains all your energy fast. Its already hitting the upper 90's right now.

Rather play games until the sun goes down and the weather is at least bearable.

SlickShoes4774d ago

I have worked all week and it is now the weekend which is my gaming time.

I have been to the Gym four times and played Football last night, I have been outside plenty of times walking the dog too. Thanks for your concern.

People access paid services via PSN like MLB.tv Lovefilm MUBI and DC Universe Online, for these all to be down is very frustrating as a PAYING CUSTOMER!

They need to beef up there security. Maybe get some nice Linux servers. 3 disagrees? So no one is in favor of getting a security upgrade which would eliminate these annoyances once and for all? Well at least deter the annoyances for quite a while.

Eddie201014775d ago

Read the tittle of the article.

Your name is ''hates video games'' what's up with that? Your on a gaming website. About your comment, read the article or at least the title of the article, this has nothing to do with hackers, bubble down...

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5091d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905091d ago (Edited 5091d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5091d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5091d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495091d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5091d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5091d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
