InFAMOUS15403d ago

ImHereNow5403d ago

Commander_TK5403d ago

@ImHereNow

Or you play on steam, aka the service that shits on both PSN and XL.

Istanbull5403d ago

Wednesday.

Make.believe

HolyOrangeCows5403d ago

I was definitely hoping for a more specific return window.

So no CC info and no passwords were leaked....
Soooooo many BS articles lied about this or made rumors from stupid NeoGoof troll posts and clueless idiots who got their info stolen from other sources.

Lifendz5402d ago

Happy to see Sony is keeping us in the loop. It's going to be crazy when it goes back up. Anyone up for some Killzone 3?

PSN: Lifendz

I_find_it_funny5402d ago (Edited 5402d ago )

Man, it's really depressing man. I don't have any PC games.
been playing a little of this battlefield play4free for a few days now

@ImHereNow, I don't pay to play online man, never will

darthv725402d ago

i just picked up uncharted two a couple weeks back and started playing it. Great game to kill time with while waiting for psn to come back up.

Yeah i am behind everyone else in playing this game but it is still a fun game none the less.

I havent finished the first before playing this one so I hope I am not missing any plot lines between the two.

04soldier5402d ago

Me too can't wait to jump back on killzone3...

Ill look u up on psn paul_mooney Expert tactician..

" While the passwords that were stored were not “encrypted,” they were transformed using a cryptographic hash function. There is a difference between these two types of security measures which is why we said the passwords had not been encrypted. But I want to be very clear that the passwords were not stored in our database in cleartext form. For a description of the difference between encryption and hashing, follow this link."

so no one email was hacked into like that past article stated then?

InFAMOUS15403d ago

Ya wolf there is a very good chance that article is FAKE!!! Just like the articles saying people had thousands of dollars taken from the credit/debit cards because of PSN.. They probably had the money taken but it was probably due to the fact that they replied to that Nigerian with 59 million dollars....

farrelljade5403d ago

@InFAMOUS1

'Ya wolf there is a very good chance that article is FAKE!!!'

its actually been posted on the official playstation blog!!

Nitrowolf25403d ago

@farrelljade

i think he is talking about the Gmail account stolen article, not this blog update.

unless i'm mistaking

Ocelot5255403d ago (Edited 5403d ago )

it's practically impossible to extract a password from a hashed string. (unless it's a MD5 hash, but this isn't used anymore, except by amateurs)

now most use SHA
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

so yea, those articles who state that their emails got hacked are prob fake

Every self-respecting developer hashes passwords(like me)

EDIT: disagree all you want, but keep in mind that I develop database-driven sites and applications for a living.I know about this shit

kneon5403d ago

@Ocelot525

Just ignore the basement dwelling expert disagreers who probably wouldn't know which end of a server is up.

Dee_915402d ago

but didnt they say in another article that the passwords were encrypted?

That's the thing. Sony is taking their time to create stronger security measures and they are keeping their customers updated on this. Apparently some people in the comments don't care about these security enhancements... All they care about is knowing when PSN will back online so that they can go play CoD.

Very Sad.

Scary695403d ago

The only update I want is when will the US PSN be up and running. *sigh*

IGAMEHARD5402d ago

in other words, this update means no PSN today, maybe tomorrow

peeps5402d ago

@ImHereNow

I was playing on live earlier actually, but I still want psn up asap cus I can't play socom on live...

wsoutlaw875402d ago

well now we know it was pointless for me to change my other passwords if they did use hash algorithms.

liore5403d ago

Godmars2905403d ago

Will probably be up at some level by midnight tonight. Not fully, but accessible to users.

rdgneoz35403d ago

Yah, they said online play will be available soon, hopefully before tomorrow / the release of MS:A, and the other functions will return within a month (most likely the PSN store, adding funds, and such).

needs some Wonder Woman :P

beerhound1d 19h ago

I would prefer a "Starfield" one.

DefenderOfDoom223h ago(Edited 23h ago)

These are the same Bethesda tables from FX3 now upgraded for VR . I bought this Bethesda pack for Pinball FX3 around 5 years ago. But when the new Pinball FX came out a few years ago , they wanted me to buy the same tables again, which is ridiculous .

They should just make games. That sounds crazy, I know, but, hear me out.

No need for dev-times to.take 3+ years. Just stick to formula. Not every game needs to be bigger & better than everything else. Not every game needs to be GaaS. Not every game needs to completely re-invent the wheel.

They KNOW how to make a cool Splinter Cell game; Interesting story, 8-10 levels, just go and make it. Give the people want they know, want and love. It doesn't need to be a shared online experience. It doesn't need to be an epic big open world. It doesn't need celebrity voice-acting. Just make a cool new SC game, and the fans will be happy and pick it up. Easy. Done. Next one.

Same for Prince of Persia, Watch-Dogs, Assassin's Creed, Trials, Rayman, Brothers in Arms, etc.
