So it seems that PSN is having problems yet again, having just experienced issues last friday as well

Additionally, the PSN Status page confirms that both gaming and social features are also facing problems. As such, you may be "experiencing issues related to launching games, applications, and/or social features such as trophies, messaging, or friends list."

The Sony engineers are on the case

Seriously PSN, get your shit together

It's becoming so common it isn't even news anymore. Every time it went down, there used to be a thread here. Now there is only a thread every 4-5 times it goes down

"Works On My Machine" :P

Seriously, it's better than last gen, but PSN still sucks, I'd be annoyed at paying for it except for all the games it gets me every month.

So is it PSN or just the store?

If it's just the store....then I don't see the big deal.

UC4 is producing so much heat during its creation that even PSN is shaking. This is what you'd call a masterpiece in the making. Thank you ND.

Couldn't get on an hour ago, stores down but i'm on GTA now and it's working fine. Played some Rise of Nations for an hour instead.

First time i've been inconvenienced in months so i don't get the whole drama.

@lostrib: Well the "issue" Friday was a DNS attack, and I don't hold Sony responsible for assholes trying to ruin everybody's fun.

Not sure if this is the same again or not and I'm not home yet to try games but I was able to get on and grab my PS+ titles on my phone and start Rocket League downloading so I'll be good to go later... You know, if games work 0.o

I got kicked out of the PS4 PSN store like three times today before I could download the four PS4 PS+ "freebies". I was guessing there was just a LOT of PS+ subscribers downloading at that moment, but it may be something else like last week with XBL spotty issues which I attributed to Games with Gold attracting many users.

Thats like saying that you don't hold a bank responsible for getting robbed every month. sure maybe the "surprise" x-mas attack, but when it happens all the time, sometimes you have to hold people responsible for beefing up security.

Also most of the time, there isn't any proof of a DNS attack. somebody taking credit on twitter doesn't make it true. Hell i could post on twitter i was DDoS-ing PSN. doesn't mean it's true. Lizard squad pretty much doesn't exist anymore anyway. Most of their big people are in jail and their twitter hasn't updated in months.

@darkangel115: I said it was a DNS attack because it was reported as such. If you have issues with that go talk to news sites.

And there is no sure fire way to prevent DNS attacks, which should be apparent by now to you when you see a kid buying a botnet for a few hundred bucks and knocking out websites at will. If you want to give your customers access to your network, there has to be a connection portal. If that portal gets overwhelmed by a spam attack of bogus connect attempts, real customers have a problem logging in. It leads to intermittent usage. You know, like we are seeing today. The only way to completely prevent DNS attacks is to close the portal, which defeats the purpose.

Sony has fanboys that hate it. Hell, Somy has Nations that hate it. But blaming the victim of a crime is a pretty shitty thing to do. Especially if you can't point specifically to something they aren't doing that would stop the attacks. It'd be like me blaming you for not answering my phone call while 20 jerks kept redialing your number constantly.

So, do you have a specific solution? Something everyone else in the IT community has been missing?
