There has been a big controversy about what is really happening with the psn or playstaytion network. But after a week, Sony has put out the news about what actually happend to the network and why it has been down. After being hacked, playstaytion took action in debugging the virus so its customers would not lose money from these hackers.

The hackers found a way to get into the mainframe of the network. This allowed them to obtain access to customer's accounts and use creditcards or purchase playstation points to get other features avalible through online.

The thing I found interesting was that playstaytion never really had any outbreaks close to this. This was probably the biggest news that broke out for playstation. I know for a fact that a lot of gamers had hacked into x box and modded there system. But as for playstaytion, there was non hackable system up until this year.

It seems that playstaytion might have been keeping hackers away but lately they have probably put their gaurd down just enough for these hackers to hack into sony. Overall this outbreak has cause many gamers to stop playing games online, but will this effect the consumers to keep playing on this system.
