Playstation Network (PSN) Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DJCroft_ DJ CROFT (@DJCroft_) reported

    1/2 People are complaining that the new playstation plus service is not worth it because of the cost of the premium and no new games day one. But if people pay attention if you paid for ps+ and psNow it's essentially the same cost of the premium tier and for the no new games...

  • shevougnma2514 MAC3 (@shevougnma2514) reported

    @MunchyDragon @Arenafighter PlayStation totally could do that but they don’t want to because of it’s gonna cost them a lot of money buying and maintaining the new service

  • fieryeyebrows 🅹🅴🅵🍄 (@fieryeyebrows) reported

    We want to name this new service after a legend but we also want to *** **** the customers wallets, Playstation Spartacus

  • AnsonDaLilBaws Anson (@AnsonDaLilBaws) reported

    @EAHelp @DonLB8 It’s not available in Hong Kong, I’ve even contacted PlayStation themselves and they do not see a Ps5 version of the game available here to download. I thought this was supposed to be a global release? Please address this glaring issue

  • FightinHoey 🇨🇦CanadianDupa 🇨🇦 (@FightinHoey) reported

    @TheMW2Ghost It’s definitely still there and you’ll have 0 issues finding lobbies on PlayStation at least. I play it regularly.

  • jorisjo1982 Angel_Spirit_Fam (@jorisjo1982) reported

    @Guerrilla Can somebody please tell me iff it is save to instal the last software update from ps5, because of that PlayStation Plus issue. Is that fixed allready world wide ?

  • GapUp4 GapUp🧩 (@GapUp4) reported

    Past two weeks: Cathie Wood's ARKK triples rally of the S&P 500. Alternatives? 3 FAANG-less tech stocks for the long haul. FTC sues Intuit (INTU) over free tax filing TurboTax ads. PlayStation (SONY) takes aim at Xbox (MSFT) with new subscription service.

  • Ollywhite97 Oliver White (@Ollywhite97) reported

    @DirtReginald @VictoriamRecord @thicc_stick_boi Playstation report 27% year on year increase in game sale's what they are doing works PlayStation doesn't need to offer 1st party games day and date on this service it was never meant for that it's giving player's a huge catalogue of game's

  • herdonthestreet Neil Smallman (@herdonthestreet) reported

    @AskPS_UK I see noone is helping, responding or answering my issue

  • KrsJin KrsJin (@KrsJin) reported

    @AryaTayebi My experience has been that PSN (PS4 version) has seemed more stable but that PC had the potential for better quality matches. Even outside of the input delay difference. That said, PC ranked matchmaking was seemingly broken for me for a few days :’( Better again now.

  • FrankJuarez626 Exp626-Stitch (@FrankJuarez626) reported

    @vincedizzle @nanatengasus @PlayStation Honestly, way to soon to judge. Sony hasn't really given us any details besides the bare minimum. I doubt their plans are written in stone yet. I'm sure if they find that people are not happy with the service when it launches they will keep improving to keep the fans content.

  • Danwale4 Dan wale (@Danwale4) reported

    @Lizard_licks_21 @AskPS_UK Yeah I had this same party problem tho it's fixed now

  • RealTilledimp Tilledimp👑 (@RealTilledimp) reported

    @GameSpot Sorry @PlayStation you can’t cut corners & expect it to be competitive. When releasing a similar service that your competitor @Xbox already has but better for the consumers. On top of that. A service you can access not just on Xbox, but on PC/Mobile devices. Step your game up..

  • GameOverThirty Game Over Thirty (@GameOverThirty) reported

    1/ The "hot takes" that say #Playstation can't put their games "day & date" on a service because they "need" to sell copies to generate revenue are grossly ill-informed about subscriptions, margins, and service revenue operations.

  • Scottyg772 Scottyg77 (@Scottyg772) reported

    I guess EA, or Xbox (it doesn’t happen on PlayStation) have no will or desire to ever fix the ghost controller on Fifa 21? Seriously, why would I buy another Fifa game on Xbox?

  • Optamizm 💙💛 Optamizm (@Optamizm) reported

    @vergil187 @marlisjun Xbox Live is a free service. Xbox Live Gold is what you're thinking of. Just having an account for Minecraft on PlayStation means counted in that 100m figure.

  • syfesade Sade (@syfesade) reported

    @K4rn4ge @Xbox except on xbox you can actually use disks to play your older games on playstation, you cant use ps1, ps2, ps3 disks on a ps5 before people start saying how playstation is "doing it right" they should let us use disks like xbox and not have us use a subscription service for it.

  • Dsaina2 Dsaina (@Dsaina2) reported

    @AskPlayStation Wheres the rulesystem in Dragon Tail Race B GR4 of Gran Turismo 7 "Sport"? 2 Rounds of corner bombing and zero punishment. And any update on bad sony servers with highend pings? Everyone has atleast 3 bars of yellow ping... lag ramming beeing a mess too.

  • TheDurane TheRealDurane (@TheDurane) reported

    @Gamendtech2 @Kmega4 There are no day one games on these things. What are you talking about. They literally said The next god of war wont be there day one. 2018 GOW has been on that service for a while. Day one means the day its out its also on the service, no teir of PlayStation offers this.

  • GameOverThirty Game Over Thirty (@GameOverThirty) reported

    3/ The idea that #Sony can't fund their games without traditional sales is simply incorrect. The reason Sony didn't place "day one" #Playstation games on the service is because they have no faith in the upper tiers. Those tiers are heavy margin plays for the most dedicated fans.

  • EastonMooreIV ¢ανємαи мσσ (@EastonMooreIV) reported

    @Ahmed_Khan98 @BMOFinnandJake @IGN They’re trying to either get everyone to move to Xbox eliminating Sonys profit forcing them to shut down PlayStation or create a similar subscription service which will also lose Sony making PlayStation no longer profitable to Sony thus closing it down leaving only Microsoft(2/2)

  • richardflatt richyroo (@richardflatt) reported

    @ImUrimeshi @klobrille A game being released on the PlayStation does not mean I will have less of a good time playing it on my xbox. So no, I don't have an issue with that.

  • CrispsShot Micah (@CrispsShot) reported

    @kidsmoove Xbox live isn’t a subscription service you *****, you can have access to it without paying a dime, just like PSN because it’s a network of servers. And PSN is still larger, even with PC helping boost Xbox live numbers.

  • zd_zma ZD_ZMA (@zd_zma) reported

    @Fabian14074537 @ModernWarzone You do realize that him playing on pc wouldn't actually solve the problem. You can still cheat on xbox and Playstation. I know 2 people who both have xbox one and use cheats. I used to know someone that played ps5 and had cheats but he switched to xbox series because of halo.

  • markeaston147 Jeff Easton (@markeaston147) reported

    @AskPlayStation so I'm on the third day and Sony still has it done anything about the fact that I can't buy buy games any of that how is it Sony I have an error message and you won't fix it

  • DrewMarkwell Drew “KingSideCastle13” Markwell (@DrewMarkwell) reported

    @mrpyo1 It’s coming out the gate as a W by the looks of it Sucks that PS3 emulation hasn’t been attained, but the PS3 had weird *** infrastructure, so I’m not surprised. Excited to see where this service goes Overall: having games from PlayStation’s full library INCLUDING PSP is a huge W

  • noclixas Noclixas | 🎮 Final Fantasy X (@noclixas) reported

    @Mistah_MCA It sucks seeing so much people having fun with the manufacturers cup while I can't even play a single race online because PSN keeps losing connection and getting an "unexpected error" every 2 minutes

  • PhillDewsbury Phill D (@PhillDewsbury) reported

    Why has the HDR all of a sudden turned horrible on my PS5??? Anyone any ideas as its well annoying....online just says it's a known issue but honestly it's well annoying especiallywhen my XSX is just fine! @PlayStation #PlayStation5 #gamers PlayStation

  • JBMC87 Máirtín 🇮🇪🇵🇸 (@JBMC87) reported

    @xMBGx @Zuby_Tech I've been with PlayStation from the beginning and I welcome these quotes. I don't want to see greed taking a hold with subscripttion and live service games we keep hearing about on PS and their games suffering for it.

  • AgentRedShirt AgentRedShirt (@AgentRedShirt) reported

    @MldGhost @Phils_Boyfriend Kind of like how Microsoft attached GamePass to Xbox LIVE. Part of the reason why PlayStation now hasn’t really taken off was because when it started it was trash. And the streaming. Now that it’s only five extra dollars instead of a completely seperate service, it will change.
