Well, at any rate, it's not Geo. He pulled off cracking the system last month.

Awesome. I was in the middle of a game when it happened. Hopefully it all shakes out decently though I hear the newer systems are connecting fine right now.

Same here. Knowing Sony this will blow over within the next few days.

It's funny; when I was a kid, I had frelling nightmares about Sinistar. Now I look at him, and it looks like he's doing the fox smile.

PS3s Suffering From Global Network Lockdown

And apparently Sony's website got hacked

So, unhook your PS3 from the Internet and leave it for now I guess.

Do these two things even have anything to do with each other or are you making the connection?

You cannot possibly be serious.

This is the best thread on NPF.

This is serious business, DFM. The internet hacker can and will turn your computer into a bomb.

So er, what exactly's happened? I would read either/or of those articles, but then someone mentioned about one of them being possibly virus ridden too, so I dare not touch either. I want details people; How, when and what?

Specifically, What is the problem, How serious is it, When did this occure?
