A Toronto based Law Firm filed a 1 Billion dollar class action suit vs Sony, I figured Id sign up to be in on it. Why not my information was compromised.

It looks like all they want out of the class action suit is credit monitoring for Canadians. You'd get that anyways if they offered it with or without signing the class action.

I still don't see a point in the class action lawsuits.

Now you have given your information to sleezy lawyers that have no hope in hell of winning said class action lawsuit.

PSN was originally supposed to be back at the end of last week, but the reactivation has been delayed further.

This is getting pretty ridiculous, Sony.

Holy crap Sony. If it takes six weeks to restore the service that's unreal.

They did mention that stamp however they said it was not ready when they tested over the weekend and this is todays update.

Long story short is we might be surprised before the 31st but dont have high hopes.

Sorry, what's all this law business? I couldn't hear anything I was playing the Gears of War 3 beta online.

I don't know what everybody is freaking out about. PSN seems to be working just fine.

Sony has sent word that a new, mandatory PlayStation 3 firmware update (version 3.61) is now live. It is strongly recommended (by us, too!) that you change your password once prompted following the download and installation of the firmware.

According to Sony's Eric Lempel, the update is meant to prepare for the re-activation of PSN. This does not mean that PSN is fully operational -- not yet.

Sony said it would begin a phased restoration of its PlayStation Network on Sunday on a country by country basis.

The company said in a news release it expects the restoration to be complete by May 31.

The PlayStation Network, which enables PlayStation games console owners to download games and pit their skills against rivals, has been offline since April 19, after Sony discovered hackers had breached security and accessed personal details on 77 million accounts.

The company said phased restoration of Sony Online Entertainment PC-based online games service would also begin on Sunday.
