You've probably heard about it, or found that your own PS3 has some problems. You've probably read all those theories and stuff. What are your thoughts on the subject?

I think the calendar glitch thing is correct. And that it'll probably be fixed with a firmware update. I just hope Sony make an announcement soon - the thought of having to send in my PS3 is kind of depressing..

Same here. It's the only thing I have right now, and for something so stupid?

Really?

I mean I could imagine it happening to a few people but killing PSN altogether?

That's fucking retarded.

Supposedly they're gonna have a fix by March 2nd? I'm not sure. At least you don't need to sign in to PSN to get an update because we'd all be screwed.

So, what's the deal? I have a PS3 Slim, but I haven't played any games recently.

Well... at least PSN is free... and at least I don't have to ship my Ps3 back to Sony to get it fixed. Not saying anything.. but just sayin'. :)

It's not a PSN problem though.. Nobody really knows what it is, but both the servers, and the internet connection, are perfectly fine.

What's even more interesting, I wanted to play FIFA, I booted up the game, and it told me that there was an update. It downloaded and installed the update, but at the title screen, told me that it couldn't load trophies and returned be to the XMB.

Seems like Sony is advising people not to use the PS3 until tomorrow at the earliest.

Argh. I already tried to play Guitar Hero, got a weird error message, then played Fallout and did quite a bit of stuff. I hope nothing happens to my save data.

I think my original PS3 fail is well documented in this forum.
Thankfully, I have a slim now.

Actually, you know what's even more messed up? I'm hearing that this also affects people without access to PSN to begin with. Like people who just hve a Ps3 and no internet...(Even though I know it's not a PSN problem, I figured the issue was caused by some type of update)

If that is the case then it is a software failure that's always existed in the system, and it's sony's own personal RROD. lol

You guys don't even know. It affected Dev Kits and Test Kits too.. that means a whole day of no good work at Propaganda for some people. Thankfully, I'm one of the lucky few who has Xbox too. I can't imagine PS3-exclusive companies who would have to deal with it.

We did eventually get a no-trophy patch, but it was too late. The internal batteries started working at 4pm PST - which was 12am GMT. Talk about a loss of productivity.

As for you guys, hopefully none of you lost any trophies. I tried to play Assassin's Creed II last night to no success - it sucked. I'm going to go play right now instead after manually setting the time.

I heard about the dev kits failing as well, I'm guessing Sony's going to have sone trouble on their hands..

And it's all good right now, I guess? I haven't had time to try my PS3 before I could go to school..
