My Ps3 is working perfectly fine ^^

So if we just wait then it should fix itself?

Is yours a Slim one?

No.

Mine was on during this problem and it worked fine. I guess whoever was logged in before this happened was spared. We don't know if slims are getting it yet.

Makingmusic, this information should be add. I think as long as someone with a PS3 fat will stay connected on PSN he will not run into those problem. My fat 60 GB PS3 was running fine all day, I then took a break and came read here a bit. After readin the first few post about this, I was curious and decided to log off PSN to see was that all about (this is before we knew about the gravity of the situation), and well after loggin off PSN I wasnt able to start my games anymore. Maybe when your connected, the PS3 sync the date with PSN. What I know is that it was working fine just before I volunteerily logged off PSN. Everyone with a fat PS3 connected on PSN since this morning or afternoon should stay connected the longer he can, until we have more info.

Yeah, that's waht I've been reading on gaf as well. I'll add it to the OP.

For fuck's sake. My 360 STILL hasn't come back from repairs. My PS3 was pretty much ignored all month until I got Heavy Rain. Now, I'm into the game and this bullshit happens? And I took the night off from work, too!! All I have left now is my Wii. With my luck, it's probably going to give me cancer.
