Not sure if this has been posted or not, (atm I have to drive 40 minutes to use the internet... *** TX) but on Sunday March 1, 2010, a lot of PS3s are having trouble. Sony has said that they have tracked it down to a bug in the date and time synchronization where it screws up your clock (resetting it to 1/1/2000) and prevents signing on to the PSNetwork. Also, bought/trial games off the PS Store are giving error messages saying that the "Copyright information is invalid." And PS3 games that have trophies are either not starting saying "Trophy info is invalid" or starting and just outright deleting trophy information. (Army of 2 the 40th day and the God of War collection for me are both examples). Sony says that they are fixing it and hope to have it finished in 24 hrs. They do warn, however, please do not use your PS3 if possible as you may not get all your info back. This is affecting 90%+ of the older "fat" models and very few ~5% of the slim models.
Posting in general as no idea where to put it. Also, how is this affecting the PS3 users of FFXI? I just moved into a new apartment but will take 2 weeks to get the internet... *** TX
