The Playstation Network is down for a few people

The Playstation Network is down to a few unlucky Playstation 3 owners. The problem is a big deal because some games do not work offline like Pixel Junk Monsters which you can’t play unless you are online. The shutdown appears to only affect original Playstation 3 owners that own the first consoles that came out and not PS3 slim owners. In an update via the Playstation.blog sony tells us that they are working on this issue.

Here is that statement below.

We’re aware that many of you are having difficulty connecting to the PlayStation Network this evening. Those of you with “slim” PS3s (the 120/250 GB models) appear to be unaffected.

Know that we have narrowed down the issue and have engineers working to restore service even as you read this. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you, and genuinely appreciate your patience while we work to resolve this.
