It seems like Sony is continuing to piss of hackers and this time it isn’t the infamous group that we know as Anonymous. This time around a group of hackers by the name of  The Lulz Boat is said to have already infiltrated Sony, which doesn’t sound good at all for PSN Users and Sony. With only a few days until E3 2011 this may be a huge blow to Sony if the attack is for real. What’s the deal people?

[Twitter]

Below you can read the latest update on what’s going on with the PSN and what the folks over at Sony are doing to ensure that we get the Playstation Network back and secured from future attacks.

As you may know, we’ve begun the process of restoring the service through internal testing of the new system. We’re still working to confirm the security of the network infrastructure, as well as working with a variety of outside entities to confirm with them of the security of the system. Verifying the system security is vital for the process of restoration. Additional comprehensive system checks and testing are still required, and we must complete that process before bringing the systems online.

As you’ve heard us say, our utmost priorities are the security of the network and ensuring your data is safe. We won’t restore the services until we can test the system’s strength in these respects.

When we held the press conference in Japan last week, based on what we knew, we expected to have the services online within a week. We were unaware of the extent of the attack on Sony Online Entertainment servers, and we are taking this opportunity to conduct further testing of the incredibly complex system. We know many of you are wanting to play games online, chat with your friends and enjoy all of the services PlayStation Network and Qriocity services have to offer, and trust me when I say we’re doing everything we can to make it happen. We will update you with more information as soon as we have it. We apologize for the delay and inconvenience of this network outage.

So a recent video has finally revealed who was the actual hacker that got into the Playstation Network and took it down a couple of weeks ago. It has finally been revealed in this security camera video when the hacker got in and how fast he was able to download all of our credit cards and private information. We hope that this bastard pays for what he did and well anyways here’s the video of this disgusting creature destroying the network.

As you may be aware, some customers have been unable to connect to the PlayStation Network today. This problem affects the models other than the new slim PS3.

We believe we have identified that this problem is being caused by a bug in the clock functionality incorporated in the system.

Errors include:

• The date of the PS3 system may be re-set to Jan 1, 2000.
• When the user tries to sign in to the PlayStation Network, the following
  message appears on the screen; “An error has occurred. You have been
  signed out of PlayStation Network (8001050F)”.
• When the user tries to launch a game, the following error message appears
  on the screen and the trophy data may disappear; “Failed to install
  trophies. Please exit your game.”
• When the user tries to set the time and date of the system via the
  Internet, the following message appears on the screen; “The current date
  and time could not be obtained. (8001050F)”
• Users are not able to play back certain rental video downloaded from the
  PlayStation Store before the expiration date.

We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours. In the meantime, if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data.

As mentioned above, please be advised that the new slim PS3 is not affected with this error. We are doing our best to resolve the issue and do apologize for any inconvenience caused.

For the latest status on this situation please continue to check either the PlayStation.Blog or PlayStation.com.

Although Sony has not confirmed this to PS3 users the rumors of the Playstation having paid subscriptions have already started and are all over the internet, but the reality is that there really isn’t that much substantial information as to how the subscription services will be. The news comes from a press conference held by SONY where they sort of hinted that subscription services will be coming. What a lot of people are not reading is that the statement it says “In Addition to the current free services” which if you think for a second is something that says a lot about the service. It means that they are looking to add more stuff, but most likely will not impact what we already have that is free.

Click on the thumbnail below to enlarge

Here is part of what SCE said thanks to courtesy of HotBloodedGaming.

SCE will further increase sales by offering users new entertainment through the combination of hardware, software, peripheral and PlayStation Network, Especially in the online area, we are studying the possibility of introducing a subscription model, offering premium content and services, in addition to the current free services

Time will tell of how these services will be and what you get from them, but sony is not the type of company that will make bad business decisions and it will be a little strange for them to start charging for services that should be free unlike the XBOX 360 does that charges for XBOX LIVE. The Playstation 3 is a console that is famous because of the PSN being free and that will hurt it a lot if you had to pay to play online and were sure that Sony knows that already.

Where we see Sony charging is for a premium membership which would probably be something similar to QORE, but with better stuff maybe even adding a music, video  and game subscription services similar to their Digital Comics. A Gamer’s club where you pay a certain amount monthly/yearly and then you get free games, music, and movies for free which would be a good thing on both ends for the company & consumer.

A music and movie service would also be good and great for business where if you have a premium account you get to watch unlimited new movies. There are tons of new releases on the Playstation video store and because they are aboutt 5 bucks to rent especially in HD a lot of times paying 5 bucks every time that you watch can hurt your wallet. It would also be interesting and more logical because it would make more money than the system that they have now where you have to pay for every movie you rent or buy. With competitors like Blockbuster online, Amazon, Netflix and others that is the only road that Sony can take if they want a piece of the movie/music/gaming service pie.

Amazon, blockbuster, Netflix and a few others own that online market and many consumer use them instead of the video store on the PS3 which most people used before Roku and other similar devices came around. If the service would be a monthly fee a lot of people would probably subscribe  just to watch the premium movies.

In conclusion the premium service  will most likely not affect online play or any of the services already there, but more that Sony would probably make a service that if you have you get lots of content and a lot of entertainment inside of the PS3 for a fee. Similar to a cable service, but with stuff you actually want to look at instead of ads. We are moving to a different entertainment structure and technology in consoles and other devices are taking over the cable services that are around and Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo and the newcomers want that pie or at least a piece of it.
