The PlayStation Network is set for some maintenance today. A posting on the PlayStation Blog tells us, "As a result you will be unable to sign in to the PSN between 4:15pm and 9:05pm UK time. We’re sorry for the inconvenience – the maintenance is global, so the timing is not something we have control of."
The PSN won't be completely inaccessible, however. The post goes on, "If you’re already signed in before the maintenance begins, however, you should be able to stay connected to the PSN servers. It is likely that you’ll be disconnected and required to sign back in once the PSN comes back up at 9:05pm, though."
No word on what the maintenance is actually for. Smells a bit like
Firmware 3.0 though, eh?
It's only a week since the
PSN last went down during Sony's GamesCom press briefing.
