US PSN back up... and Sony screws up again.

So, I did a system update and find out that, lo and behold, a password update is required. No surprise there. I get a notification email, and...

Sony's Playstation site is down. I've been trying for over 20 minutes and it just times out so I cannot change my PW.

Fuck you, Sony. Seriously. Try to do SOMETHING right here, will you?

My PSN is up. Be patient. You sound like a child. It wasn't even Sonys fault and look how much they are giving up to get back in the gamers good graces. When the PSN store gets back up I cannot wait to see your face. Seriously, they are giving up way more than we deserve (especially those who do not pay for anything).

Sony's face-saving givaways are great. They stepped it up with those offerings. Kudos to them.

But this IS Sony's fault and whether I pay for PSN or not is irrelevant. It's an expected service and they lost my personal information.

And for that, they can still go fuck themselves. That's not something I'm ready to forgive right away. I'm in the market to buy a house and the last thing I need to deal with is an identity theft situation because Sony gave me a false sense of security and I foolishly let them store my personal information.

This could've happened with anyone including Microsoft or Nintendo, but it didn't. SImple as that. Shit happens and I am in the same position that you are. What keeps Sony ahead of the pack is its games, not exactly its online. It's online is getting really high up there though. Simply put, there still is no reason to go crazy. They told everyone to get a free credit check to seee if their accounts had been breached. I don't know if you got the email or not. Anyway, mine wasn't messed with so I suggest you do the same, change your password and move on.
