PlayStation Network Goes Down; PS3 Titles Not
Working [UPDATE]
by Dan

playstationlifestyle.net If you’re trying to get onto PlayStation Network as of right now,
sorry, it’s down. Many users of PSN have confirmed that the network is
currently unavailable, with them receiving a 8001050F error message.
That’s not all, many more issues have appeared, leaving PlayStation
Network users are less than thrilled, voicing their frustration on
forums around the ‘net.
The date on your PSN clock has also apparently changed as well, to
December 31st. The time has also been mixed up as well. This is probably
due to the fact that there is no network access whatsoever. Users have
also reported that games are not working, because trophy access is
unresponsive. If you try to play a PS3 or PSN title, the game will give
you this message:
Registration of the trophy information could not be
completed.
The game will quit.
(8001050F)
Purchased PSN titles are not working as well, and some are reporting
of copyright issues. Demos however, are working fine.
We’ll bring you more on this network error as soon as more news hits.
Thanks LpSquall for the tip!
[UPDATE]
Sony has
officially responded to the problems users are experiencing with
PlayStation Network.

and yes, we’re looking into it. Stay tuned for updates.” |
