PSN Apparently Back Online, But Only For Developers

All I keep hearing about is developers, developers, developers, developers...
OT: Good idea sorting out the business side before the consumer side. Consoles like the PS3 and 360 aren't worth anything without 3rd party devs.

This is good. its a positive step in the right direction.
baby steps, you gotta crawl before you walk and walk before you run.

The problems with new and old accounts is the 'personal information', according to some. I had a similar problem when accounts were hacked at NCSoft. They wanted personal information like game s/n and CC#s from 6+ years ago to reactivate hacked accounts, and I didn't have that. Devs are having trouble unlocking old accounts because they can't find this kind of info after 5 years.
But this is good, devs are going through this process so we don't have to, hopefully. My biggest burn with the situation is that my PS3 died during the outtage, so my digital downloads, DLC, and cloud saves are unavailable to me until it's back up. I know I'll have to use email confirmation to get my account back up as well, which I'm okay with.
I'd expect parts of the PSN to be back up within a week, with the rest being up by their deadline of May 31. It's funny, because by the time it's back up, I'll have LA Noire and Witcher 2; I won't be too worried about online gaming for a while anyway. Still, it'll be good to have the ability to play YDKJ or LBP2 online with friends again.

3
laythroughs of Portal 2
1:time victory in Civ IV
100-200:matches in TF2
30:races in Mario Kart
all done within the PSN outage, and since it will be back up soon might as well display those statistics

Don't care, just waiting for Star Wars the Old Republic to come out then Sony is a distant memory.
you could like, you know, show some willpower and not play until Monday anyways. Just a thought.The Last Nomad said:
Seen as I don't have the ability to get online with my PS3 at home, I don't even need willpower, just lazyness. Which I have plenty of. But I was really hoping not to miss out on any of the free stuff thats only for 30 days, but seen as its not back up fully yet, the most I'll miss is a week, which isn't so bad.radioactive lemur said:
