Time flies: The massive PSN outage happened 10 years ago today.

[Kingshango]

This shyt was crazy, nobody had no fukking idea what was going at the time. Almost 80 million PSN users saw the same error message for DAYS until Sony finally said something and had PSN down for damn near a month, killing a few game releases that depended on online play in the process (namely SOCOM 4). shyt got international news calling it the biggest data breach in history (at the time) with millions of users credit card info being compromised, arguable one of, if not THE biggest L Sony ever took.

Spoiler

Lucky for me I didn't have a PS3 at the time, was still playing on 360

Y'all still giving Sony your credit card info or nah?

You know shyt was different when the entire online network went down for 2 months and actual riots didn’t break out.

Imagine people not being able to play 2k, fifa, fortnite, war zone for 2 months? Lol

Fortunately PSN was free, imagine if they had to PAY for it at the time?

They better be glad that the shyt was free cause if it wasn't it would of been hell for them.

 

[Rell Lauren]

They didn't incur further wrath because the service was free.

 

[Superkick Party]

I had a PS3 at the time but was offline only mainly and never signed up for PSN

Xbox nikkas STILL gave me shyt

 

[-DMP-]

I was knee deep in engineering school. I had a 360 and a ps3 and I barely played them. Missed out in some good (and bad) times.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Sony made up for it though

We’re already a few months into 2021, before you know it it’ll be 10 years since the ps4 and xbone came out.
