An error has occurred. You have been signed out of Playstation Network.
(8001050F)


This is what a lot of people (including me) are seeing right now. There is some corruption causing a lot of shit to go wrong in the network.

This is my first major issue with my PS3 in three years; hopefully they figure it out soon.

Anyhow, how long has it been down? My kid was playing call of duty on there at around 8pm.

I'd make a snarky remark about "this is why XBL is worth it" but it has had its fair share of outages too.

^^ haha, i figured someone would. This one is very strange; it is some sort of error message, and it is showing no signs of ending.

Yeah, still having them. It is some issue in their leap year code. Here is a kicker, the date and time on my ps3 reset to 12/31 1999.


Apparently they are close to a fix though.

So you are saying Justin is the Admin for the PSN Network?

Step up your game Justin.

Been searching around and it seems as if the apocalypse has hit the fat models of the PS3..

Supposedly if you have a Slim model, you should be fine..

Anyway, there was a bug in the fat PS3 models that had a glitch today with the clock that set it to a random date, which doesn't allow you to play online or connect to the PSN. I guess the PS3 was fooled by a leap year issue and everything screwed up within the systems internal clock.

Sony is working on a patch to help this issue out.

I didn't even know it was a leap year. Isn't tomorrow March 1? I thought the leap year had 29 days in February. And this is exactly what is happening to me.

Exactly. The PS3 is somehow mistaken this year as a leap year. Something to do with the internal clocks of the fat PS3...

So, with that, it's totally thrown the system clock out of whack and the fat PS3's are reporting the date as 12/31/1999

I am seeing that right now. My system clock says 12/31 at 8:03 PM. It is 12:05. So it about 11 years, 4 hours and 2 minutes behind.

lol, yeah it's kind of funny imo.. I have no ideal how it's messing up one model, but not the others (slims)

Kind of weird.

Well this is pissing me off. The Houston Cougars were all set to DESTROY Coach imex99 and his ECU Pirates in the CUSA Championship game tonight. We will have to re-ice the champagne, it looks as though the bottles won't be popped until tomorrow night.
