PlayStation Network Down! PlayStation Network Down!

Apologies to those trying to play Mortal Kombat or Portal 2 online. Blame Canada Japan!

None

So you tried to jump on PSN in the past couple of days, and what happened? Nothing but that dread-inducing error message that lets you know you're not going anywhere. We get it. You're sad. Confused. Perhaps you don't know where to turn.

Well, it turns out the recent network outage is due to complications in Japan. Sony has been taking to their Twitter feed and putting rumors rumors about another Anonymous attack to rest. According to Sony, things are under control, but senior director Patrick Seybold allowed that it "may be a full day or two before we’re able to get the service completely back up and running." Welp, looks like PS3 owners will just have to enjoy some offline gaming for now. Ignore the laughter from the XBL corner of the ring. [via Game Informer/26star]
