More news. Sony fucked up royally is the only way to say it.

Quote:
 
Sony has warned that the names, addresses and other personal data belonging to around 77 million people with accounts on its PlayStation Network (PSN) have been stolen.

Gamers have been locked out of the network for a week, but the company has revealed that the system has been suspended since it was hacked last Wednesday.

Sony said it discovered that between 17 and 19 April an "illegal and unauthorised person" got access to people's names, addresses, email address, birthdates, usernames, passwords, logins, security questions and more.

Children with accounts established by their parents also may have had their data exposed, according to Sony, which put the warning on its US PlayStation blog — although the warning about the compromise might not be immediately visible to passing readers. The company is also emailing people who might be affected.

The intrusion is potentially one of the biggest ever into a store of credit cards. Sony's PSN is one of the world's biggest holders of credit cards, though not as large as Amazon, eBay, PayPal or Apple's iTunes, which each hold more than 100m accounts.

The previous largest hacking attacks were on Heartland Payment Systems in January 2009, when up to 100m US credit and debit card details were stolen, and TK Maxx in March 2007, when up to 46m credit card details were stolen.

The company said that it saw no evidence that credit card numbers were stolen, but it added: "Out of an abundance of caution, we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained,"

The online marketplace allows users to purchase and play video games on their PlayStation consoles. It launched in autumn 2006 and offers games, music and movies to people with PlayStation consoles.

The hack attack has put it out of action and it says that it may be up to a week before it is operational again.


How bad is that. Start changing your passwords people!

Not just your PSN passwords either change everything on every site you go to Online.
Because all they need is a Birth Date an Address and Credit Card details then they can take you for a ride.

Playing ps3 online is some people occupation, so some people won't be happy and others will complain/expect compensation

Fact is unless you pay for the service you wont have a chance at getting anything from them - you get what you pay for.

Hopefully this time breaks the mold then! It pays to be optimistic. Servers are definitely getting upgraded and cross game chat is being considered.
