1. PSN will be back up this week
2. The only thing people should be worrying about it accounts. If u have PSN check ur accounts ur cards are attached to or get a credit check.
3. PS3 owners really dont need to worry about online as much as Xbox 360 owners. If Xbox Live isnt on, the 360 is barely worth turning on imho (unless you have kinect or some home party game as you can avert online party gaming).The PS3 has a healthier variety of exclusives ranging from single player to multiplayer, to level building and creation titles which include online.
4. Have fun and get immersed in a deep single player storyline with a PS3 exclusive this year and then enjoy the multiplayer of various titles. The 360's main exclusive will own the online for the rest of this year despite its storyline (notice i say despite, because usually on PS3 exclusive titles the storyline has a clear balance with the multiplayer).
