They specifically mention station and SOE accounts in the press release though which made me wonder because I thought station accounts were PC and PS3 just had PSN accounts or something but I haven't owned a console since SNES and PS1 so I got no idea. Anyone know if PSN accounts are just normal station accounts? But anyways, they did hire a 3rd party security firm after the PSN breach, so this downtime might just be because they found something that needed fixing and not necessarily because of a new attack. And you can login and chance password now it seems and their CEO said it had been a rough day but they hoped to have it back up soon, so maybe it's not as bad as it seems. Our intention is to get the service back up as soon as humanly possible. We 're working day and night to do this. I 'm very hopeful we 'll be down only a short time. But we have work to do to make sure everything is secure and buttoned up. | ||
