According to a story on TheRegister – http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2010/03/01/chubby_ps3_psn_lockout/ – and just about everywhere else, as February turned to March, old-style PS3s were locked out of Sony’s PlayStation Network.
Horror stories so far include being unable to play games and even data loss, but weirdly people with the new “slim” PS3s are mainly unaffected.
As someone with an old PS3 and a custom installed hard drive, I’m kinda hoping that mine isn’t affected, and that I’ll not be going home to nothing more than a BluRay player tonight!
More to follow…
