i am on a launch 60gb ps3. i turned my system on and could not connect to the network. the calendar has reset itself to 12/31/1999. so i manually set the calendar to the correct date. then i went to play heavy rain and it gave me the trophy error and kicked me out. i then noticed all my heavy rain trophies (i had at least 40 of them) were gone. i tried disable in network settings, and still none of the games are playable.

i have a friend without internet, the same thing happened to his, and now he can't play any games. how is anything sony does with the network going to help him?

i'm thinking we have to send them in, and if that's the case i am going to be royally pissed off.

This what has me baffled. This isn't just a network issue... how the hell is this gonna be fixed??!!

This is not an issue pertaining to PSN. According to 1UP and a few other sites, it's an issue that's also affecting systems that have NEVER been hooked up to the internet. It seems to be a firmware bug that involves resetting the date on your system. It's also only affecting fat ps3s (but not all fat ps3s!).

And it sounds like it won't be easy to fix.

You can find out a lot more in the gaf thread about this:

I am now incredibly scared to turn on my ps3.

Maybe it's an evil plan to kill of any PS3 made before 2009 to make people buy slims, that would be a good marketing strategy...

I douht that.

Doubt what?

I can't log onto PSN where I am at (campus network), I would have to send it in.  If I dl a patch online, that voids my warranty.

 

WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN A WEEK BEFORE FFXIII????????  It the only reason I own a freakin' PS3.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

Its Sonys fault who knows maybe they end up giving a free PSN game to everyone who lost trophies or whatever.

What good would that be to people who are not able to log on to PSN?

You actually think this will go on forever ? Ofcourse they would have to fix the problems first and after they fixed it maybe they give the customers a free PSN Game like MS gives free Xbox Live for a month or a year.
