NOOOOOO! Sony owes me an apology. And I'd like some form of reimbursement. A box of Whoppers maybe.

It's becoming self aware, it's developing AI... soon it'll be making it's own games and hacking into the internet.

You know the guy who hacked into the PS3... soon PS3's will hack him. Good luck without toilet drivers.

lazarus.

Nor should Sony hav 2 exlain themselves, i mean, "LOOK AT THE GAMES THEY GIVE US" i still cant get over the new God OF War footage, my eye lids hav gone right to the back of my eye balls

i dont understand why they put the word "killed systems" it may have brought systems down but it didnt kill them from what ive seen I mean I press my PS button it turns on unless its a ghost or something.

All I know is that my copy of Bad Company 2 is waiting for me at home and I can't wait to smoke some of you fools. See you on PSN.

Even if the clocks rolled over maybe Sony didn't feel it was worth doing a whole FW update over and will fix any error in the coding when they release the next one.

I'm just glad it's not happening anymore so I will take it.

heck, I was on the undeground today, and was reading the paper, and the "crisis" managed to make headline news haha
It was a funny 24 hours though. No one can lie. Lot's of banter on the forums,sites, it will definitely go down in history...and it created memes such as "PS3- It only does self-ressurection, PS3- It only does Jesus, PS3- It only does Life.". So it's all good haha. Quite funny when you look back on it.
The reasons as to how it fixed itself. God knows but does it need to be probed. The clock syncing was off. That's really all there is to it it seems. Let's move on.

Don't care how, I'm just glad it's fixed.

It is the Jesus-console, it resurrects itself. Brb gonna go put a glass of water on top of it to see if it turns into wine later.

I dont have to see the man behind the curtain. I'm just glad he's there.

PS3 died, but came back, 2 days quicker than Jesus did it.

Besides, I dont think they did anything. It was always going to auto-correct.

It only does Everything but Self-Terminate.

Sony did nothing, the clock simply rolled back, (thank God).

I know this because my PS3 has been offline and unable to connect to the WLAN connection in my house, so I always keep internet disabled.

On the sever side, Sony probably fixed that, but the clock? Nope.

I think they ran it under a cold tap.

Sony didn't do jack. Just waited for the time to roll over.

cuzz it fixed itself

Now that Jim Ryan is gone just need to remove Herman Hulst from his position! And maybe give Shuhei the position he deserved.

This gen hasn't been the best for games, last gen consoles are still out there and now there's been talk of the PS6 and Xbox Two for a year or so. Many games this gen will be ported to next gen and the cycle will continue. The re-release of the Neo Geo AES+, games on cartridge for £70 ($95), gaming is going back in time. Gaming has gone pricing mad with the high cost of games, consoles and controllers. The men and women at the top are clueless.

It’s always interesting to hear behind-the-scenes stories like this, especially involving veterans like Shuhei Yoshida and leadership figures like Jim Ryan. That said, there are usually multiple sides to decisions at that level. It could be less about not “listening” and more about differences in long-term vision for PlayStation. Yoshida played a huge role in shaping the brand, so whatever the reason, his impact is undeniable.

If true, and I'm inclined to believe it is, it goes to show that Sony lost their way when they became more western/didn't respect the PlayStation origin story. Andrew House and Jack Tretton did great work, but they also didn't try to fundamentally change the PlayStation DNA. Ryan oversaw the death of Japan Studio and a live service direction.

I already figured this, good lord imagine if Shuhei took over instead, would've been a platinum era 😩

I miss the first three generations of PlayStation. The way they turned PS3 around, we knew they meant business. We were all worried for a bit there around launch. Eventually from 2008 they started shifting slowly. But since Yoshida was fired, it's never been the same. Still enjoy my PS5 daily. I got a backlog dating back to PS2 lol So I'm fine but new games aren't as appealing anymore.

It seems like we were thrown on to the worst timeline possible where everything is too expensive and the wrong people were put in positions that makes the world a shitty place. We could have had Shu as the head of PS but we got the shitty alternative. Same goes for everyone in power around the world. Doesn’t matter the company or country the majority of us got the shitty picks and the world is declining like never before. I do think PS can come out of this because of their studios, talent and IP but they need someone more in touch with gamers leading things like Shu was. They’re still the best place for console gaming imo but it could be much better than it is especially without the massive live service failures. The rest of the world I have a lot less hope for right now. Hopefully the pendulum swings back towards the good ole days but I’m preparing for the worst.

There goes illuminati distraction story

So now there's certifiable proof that Ryan was in fact "fired", as opposed to when it was first announced that he "retired", in order to save face.

There's another guy who recently "retired" as CEO of another large gaming company, after doing a dismantling job as lead for well over a decade.

seems legit, the business man, fires the one who has ideas to move the business forward.

Jim Ryan is the reason why we are entering year 6 since the PS5 launch and many of us don't feel like the PS5 has gotten started as yet.

I hope going forward, we will see a return to form.
