106w ago - Following the release of
PS3 Firmware 3.61 and the PSN restoration announcement from
Kazuo Hirai, Sony's Senoir Director of Corporate Communications & Social Media
Patrick Seybold tells PSN users to 'play on' confirming that PlayStation Network restoration officially begins now.
To quote: Thank you for your patience and encouragement over the last few weeks. As covered in the post from earlier today, you can now update the firmware on your PS3 and change your password. Kazuo Hirai just announced that we have begun the phased restoration by region of some of the services, starting with online multiplayer functionality.
Please note that these services will take a bit of time to be turned on and rolled out to the whole country. The process has begun and some states are being turned on now, so please be patient as we reach your city and state. Well be updating the map below as service comes online in individual states.
It will take several hours to restore PSN throughout the entire country, so please keep checking back for the latest updates. In the meantime, nows a great time to get your PS3s firmware updated and change your password, both of which are required to get online.
Notice: If your state is illuminated but your service has not yet been restored, please be patient it can take a little while for the servers to populate fully.
Hello everybody
Rogero 4.40 is a good CFW to deal with,just spoof it to 4.41 to play online at your own risk.
Rebug 4.41.2 if you wanna mess with trop...
Yea, this is what I read on it: http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2011/05/16/email-password-reset-notice/
Some of you have mentioned that you have not received your password reset emails. With the huge number of people coming back online at the same time and resetting their passwords, it is creating significant email traffic to ISPs. The consequence is that some of the ISPs are throttling the emails.
We are currently trying to resolve this, but in the meantime please be patient and refrain from submitting multiple requests. You will receive you reset email and be able to get back to enjoying your online gaming.
Also from the US Blog: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/05/15/update-on-service-restoration-rollout/
We’re currently experiencing an extremely heavy load of password resets, and so we recently had to turn off services for approximately 30 minutes to clear the queue.
As such, a large number of people are attempting to change their passwords at the same time, it’s taking longer than expected for all those emails to clear all of the ISPs.
If you’ve requested your password reset, please give it a bit of time to reach your email. Thanks for your patience as we work to get everyone back online.
LOOLLL
