PSNSonyIf you were planning for some Friday night gaming on your PlayStation, you may have found last night that PSN was down, ending those plans. But if you were hoping that things would at least be fixed by this morning, theres some bad news on that front.PSN is still down after 14 hours and there have been no updates about when its going to be fixed or why this is happening. The PSN service page says some services are experiencing issues except its all services, apparently, all with the red dead light. Thats sign-in, playing games, playing video, the store, all of it. Sometimes only pieces go down, but this is a full outage. And a long one.The PlayStation support account has not been terribly helpful, tweeting only We are aware that some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN and directly players toward that page below.

That is very unlikely to be whats happening here today, even if the outage is quite long.MORE FOR YOUEven other games are chiming in about the outage at this point.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.It is a side-effect of the modern era that when a service like this is down you can essentially play almost nothing for duration. This is when I feel pretty good about being a mostly PC player these days, reliant only on my ISP, but there are tens of millions of PlayStation players currently affected by this. Hopefully PlayStation will either fix the problem or at least give a status update soon.Follow me , and .Pick up my sci-fi novels the and
