older ps3 issues

Yeah I read about this on both the PSN and PSU boards last night. I thought at first it was a hardware issue on my machine, which pissed me off because I've alread dropped $150 for Sony to repair the BR laser/reader.

It's too bad I couldn't get for MW2 fix last in even in SP. **** you Error: 8001050F

 
Hmm, I haven't used my PS3 online in a long time but thought I'd check after seeing this. Sure enough, no PSN. Error: 8001050F.

I also want to point out that I tried playing a game before I even hooked the thing to the net and it didn't work, and the date was set to 12/31/99, so it has to have something to do with the leap year (as others have pointed out).

XBOX fanboys are going to have a field day, a well deserved field day.

Edit....Online works, just not PSN. That's good news for Sony. Can you imagine the chaos if they weren't able to patch this through the internet and had to RMA each unit.

Sony's PlayStation Network has been hit by a glitch that has left users on all continents unable to connect to the online service, the company said Monday.

The PlayStation Network is an Internet-based service that connects PlayStation 3 consoles to online stores, software downloads and is used as a platform for some multiplayer online games. It has about 38 million users worldwide.

The problem appears to be affecting only the older PlayStation 3 consoles and not the newer so-called "slim" models that were recently launched, according to messages on Twitter.

First reports of the problem began appearing online at around 4pm PST on Sunday, and acknowledgement came from Sony's U.S. unit in the form of a blog and Twitter posting.

"We're aware that many of you are having difficulty connecting to the PlayStation Network this evening," said Jeff Rubenstein, social media manager for Sony Computer Entertainment America, on the company's blog.

"Know that we have narrowed down the issue and have engineers working to restore service even as you read this," he wrote.

But the company's Tokyo headquarters said shortly afterwards that it had yet to determine the problem that had caused so many consoles to be denied access to the network.

The Twitter channel was filled with messages from PlayStation 3 owners. The vast majority of the messages expressed anger at Sony and many Twitter users turned to profanities to express their feelings towards the glitch.

"We're narrowing down the issue and continue to work to restore service to all. Updates as soon as we have them," the company said on its @SonyPlayStation Twitter channel.
It's not from that site but addresses the issue.

Nope. You can't even play it offline. You can pray they have it fixed by tonight. Someone said that they may automatically start working again come 8pm GMT.
 
I got this error msg last night when I wanted to play modern warfare 2 online.

I just checked it again like 5 minutes ago, error is still there.

****, I miss MW2 already lol.
