I recall they said they would require a change of password every year or something like that when the PSN incident happened and changed their security completely.

I did it like an hour ago. NYC.

Had to change mine. Not a big deal. Got an email to click on link. Changed to new password. Took about 3 minutes total. In MD

Heavy is right, this is old news. they did it in EU last week and explained why at the time. It's good practise to change passwords - at work I have to change my main password every month, it just keeps security tight.

I did it last week, takes 2 mins to click forgot password, click link from email and input new password.

I haven't had to change mine, and I'm EST like cgoodno too. I don't think this is for everyone.

mrpsychoticstalker4539d ago

Lol another psychotic banned. Hilarious

solidt124539d ago (Edited 4539d ago )

I am Security IT Professional and you should change your password at least once a month. For most it is linked to your credit card information.

Really? I didn't get anything.
I used the psn service today and used YouTube.

I'm in so-cal.
Wonder when I'll receive that email o_0

Majin-vegeta4540d ago (Edited 4540d ago )

Im in the central valley and i didnt get squat just finished trying BF4.Biggest POS i have seen.

jonatan2214540d ago

I'm in MA, and I haven't received one either.

Insomnia_844540d ago (Edited 4540d ago )

I didn't recieved any email. I couldn't log in to the EA servers in BF4 on PS4 for some reason but I was still online on PSN. I restarted the console and it didn't sign in automatically, when I went to sign in manually, it said I had to change my password, I followed instructions, they sent me a link to my email address and that was it.

Eonjay4539d ago

The email isn't a bulk mailing, it only effected a small percentage of users.

This is really old and is only happening to users in SCEE region which Sony has addressed. I'll find article and repost

Edit

http://n4g.com/news/1398397...

Edit 2: as kayant mentioned link to source, also just tried my US account and logged in fine ate you sure those users are US gamers

Kayant4540d ago (Edited 4540d ago )

Good find ;)

Edit - This is why a source should be in the article...

Yh add it to the title EBTpickle.

Edit 2 - Some people can login in fine some it look like it's not widespread an just a percentage of users.

EBTpickle4540d ago (Edited 4540d ago )

This is reports from like five minutes ago. US based PSN users.

EBTpickle4540d ago

How could SCEE users change their PSN password on the PS4 when it's not released in that region yet?

Mikelarry4540d ago

The article has been updated as it never said ps4, vita it stated psn. As evidence the forum post you linked to only talks about psn and vita

itBourne4540d ago

It just made me change my American account, an account that is only about 4 months old too. Didnt try to log into my Euro to see or my first American account.

Stick894539d ago

I have only a US account, and last night I had to reset mine. Actually had to contact support about it. People are having problems (myself included) where it won't accept your information. Kinda sucks tbh, but it's all fixed now.

I can confirm this is happening as I had to call PlayStation today to reset my password and i'm in the US.

xHeavYx4540d ago

I just logged in to the Playstation website with no problem

xXtremeHDGamerXx4540d ago (Edited 4540d ago )

The rep told me it's only happening to a small percentage of the users do to Sony updating their servers.

Icarus_High4540d ago

Same here, It's not just the EU it's also in the US

iiwii4540d ago

hmm.. I'm in the US and haven't received an email from them. Maybe I'll change it anyway just to be sure.

tarbis4540d ago

Nothing! I checked my mail, signed in to my PSN and check the PS Store using my PS Vita.

Cacabunga2d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot1d 18h ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose2d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE2d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername2d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy2d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde2d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire862d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire862d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster30002d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle2d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk772d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
