Your ps3 is a paperweight tonight...
Just got off the phone with Sony, and was told my ps3 would not be active for around 2 hours (your's won't either). Guess I'll stick with Microsoft.

Why? Service on the servers? If that's the reason, it happens every once in a while, even for Xbox. Not that big of a deal. Not like they could make it not work completely, probably just can't play online

Yeah what? They can't actually brick your console so you can't even play offline.

Yeah, what? Are you complaining that you can't play online or did they brick your system?
For the record, the PS3, Wii and 360 can be bricked remotely by their respective companies I believe. |

True, but the fix for that, I believe, would be to just disconnect it from the internet?

Nothing works. Movies, discs, games on the HD, internet, nada...
That hasn't happened on thee 360 as far as I'm aware. |

From Joystiq:
A wide rash of game-crashing errors is spreading among the PS3-owning community at the moment, most of which can be chalked up to a 8001050F error code. This has led to a variety of unfortunate side-effects for those affected, including corrupted trophy information and an inability to access the PSN. When combined, those two issues prevent players from launching certain games, such as Heavy Rain, without being kicked back to the XMB. We've contacted Sony to find out what's causing the issue, and when we can expect to get back to chasing down the Origami Killer. He might just be able to make a clean getaway while we suffer through this downtime. |

I can't remember WHICH system, might have been the original X Box, but I know I've read that chipped systems can get their drives locked and encrypted, making them unusable.

That it was an "unscheduled maintenance issue" that would take around "two hours to fix, hopefully". I kept trying to figure out why the disc reading/hard drive games wouldn't work, only to get they "just don't" (Heavy Rain boots up and writes "Registration of the trophy information could not be completed. The game will quit (8001050F)). I asked about movies, and dude said the PS3 is a paperweight tonight. I laughed and hung up.
Really irritated cause I bought FF VIII tonight, and was looking to play it after basketball. |

I've had all 3 systems since day one (PS3, 360, and Wii), and for whatever reason, today is my first malfunction.

"Yeah im down aswell, I cant even play Heavy Rain. Really pissed off I've been waiting to play all night. My PS3 crashed on me last night whilst playing HR and this is the first time i've turned it on. Not a happy bunny."

Thought about that. To be honest, I'd like to upgrade to the Elite. My 360 decided a while ago to close the disc drive by it's self, so it can be an issue timing when I put "it in". Also, it can be like an old car at times, where I have to let it warm up a bit before reading the discs. That said, I'd hardly complain if it shitted itself at this point. Most people haven't had this luck; so after 5 years of amazement, I'd be ok.
I actually really feel his pain. I psyched myself up to play OLD SKOOL tonight, and am really feeling depressed right now. Might have to play Mafia Wars Last edited by Icess; 02-28-2010 at 09:23 PM. |

I just don't understand why my system isn't able to do anything. None of my games work, none of my Blu-Ray DVD's work, nothing off my HD works. I haven't even played it in a few days. I'm not really that pissed, but I was looking forward to Final Fantasy tonight. Kinda just confused on how a whole thing crashes. And a bit concerned about my CC info (cause I had to enter all that stuff in again to sign into PSN, which still didn't work).

It wasn't worth the original price, and there are far more enjoyable games that can be utilized with the 360. Plus, the controller suits many people better (those of us with ginormous hands). PS3 is fine now with solid exclusives; but in the end, 360 still just has more. I want both, but if you're given only one option...

Wait. So all along this was a world wide problem, and I wasn't the only one having Heavy Rain crash on me when loading. And I didn't have to start a new game and just ride this out?

*UPDATE*
Sony hates Heavy Rain. As far as I can tell, all games work... Except the title "Heavy Rain". Way to do justice to an exclusive. You still can't access the PSN, or any games that you have saved on your HD. |

Some bros are saying that their PS3s were not even connected to the internet and they still got this problem. Now that's funky
