It was a date which will live in infamy (within the gaming community). It was a day in which trophies were lost, in which we all jumped back in time and in which Xbox 360 owners felt universally smug. It was – a term coined almost instantly across the web – the ApocalyPS3. Yesterday something happened to the Playstation Network and to original PS3s, and it wasn’t something good.
An error has occurred. You have been signed out of PlayStation Network (8001050F).
That was the message that greeted as many as 25 million owners of the original, chunky PS3 when they tried to get onto the PSN yesterday. Sony was quick to spot the error, shooting this announcement out into the angry masses from the safety of a window high atop a very tall building:“As you may be aware, some customers have been unable to connect to the PlayStation Network today. This problem affects the models other than the new slim PS3. We believe we have identified that this problem is being caused by a bug in the clock functionality incorporated in the system.”, “We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours,” the company continued. “In the meantime, if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data. We are doing our best to resolve the issue and do apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
Unsurprisingly, people weren’t all that happy about this. And you?
