[Herr Matzat]

With everyone here being PS+ we need to have a Uncharted 3 Beta Online get together! We´ll never be this close to everyone having the a (likely very good) online multiplayer game.

I made my account after april. Luckily my girl had one from before then so ill go on that for free stuff.

[Benji]

Why did they even announce May 31st as everything being up if there was a chance of it not happening?

[Herr Matzat]

Pritty much everyone expected a further delay. Even if just for making fun of sony.

I wonder if they took the time to make some changes to the shop or if it will just go up like it was before.

Well I didn't buy too much into the May 31 date, but it coming up the week of May 31 works for me. Hopefully there isn't a huge slowdown as everyone tries to get the free games the minute the store is back up.

[TKz]

Friday works for me. I won't actually be able to play anything online until Friday anyway, so I'm not so bothered about getting it just yet.

[KevinStorm]

If I have an account, and my fiance has an account on the same system, does that mean we get 4 free games? >_>

[Benji]

I'm the only on gullible enough to fall for May 31st, clearly

I just want the store. All I've wanted is the PoP Epilogue and Dragon Age Origins DLC. WHY WON'T YOU TAKE MY MONEY, SONY?

I fell for it too.

[Herr Matzat]

Another downtime for tonight. Maybe some of the stuff will be online again by tomorrow.

[gunnar hendershow]

I would hope the downtime is happening so they can get everything back up online.

[Herr Matzat]

Maybe it will, and friday will be the first storeupdate.

[Clawson]

When do we get the free games? As soon as the store comes online or do we have to wait?

[Ruki]

I also would like to know this, since I am moving soon and may or may not have internet at home for awhile.

[Herr Matzat]

You have to love sony.

Resumption of full PlayStation Network service is still on track for this week in most regions.

I don´t think we will be afected since we are in the main markeds. I also think wellcome back will be a day one thing.

[Benji]

Didn't they already say it would last 30 days?

Also, yeah, sod Sony for this one. Announcing schedules you can't keep to is entirely their own fault.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Uhh, they said "most regions" when they announced friday remember guys? Japan hong kong and south korea would have to wait?

Thats not a change.

[Herr Matzat]

Nevermind, it´s the same msg on every blog, i thought it was just on SCEE.

Still though, I'm in agreement that they shouldn't make schedules and promises that they cannot keep. Saying "week of May 31" would have been a smarter PR move.

[Herr Matzat]

I think asia was behind from the beginning because the goverment in japn(for example) required sony to get a ok from them and such.
