PSN restoration has started

[Ssx9]

Thank you for your patience and encouragement over the last few weeks. As covered in the post from earlier today, you can now update the firmware on your PS3 and change your password. Kazuo Hirai just announced that we have begun the phased restoration by region of some of the services, starting with online multiplayer functionality.

Please note that these services will take a bit of time to be turned on and rolled out to the whole country. The process has begun and some states are being turned on now, so please be patient as we reach your city and state. We’ll be updating the map below as service comes online in individual states. It will take several hours to restore PSN throughout the entire country, so please keep checking back for the latest updates. In the meantime, now’s a great time to get your PS3’s firmware updated and change your password, both of which are required to get online.

Finally, I'm looking forward to it.

EDIT3: Now Cali has PSN too.

EDIT2: Kazuo Hirai has announced the gradual re-launch of PlayStation Network.

Thank goodness. Even though I hardly play online, I still want to get some PSN titles.

Let the hacking begin.

They should include America as a whole, not only the United States OF AMERICA or North America only.

I'm really happy that PSN is getting back on! Ahaha, I still held up with MK9.

I hope that those people who bought Portal 2 will finally play now.

No, because the US blog is for north america only, thus USA, Canada and Mexico I think.

South America isn't the same.

People here use the same servers people in North America do so yes, they should.

They should because there isn't a South America Playstation Blog.

There is one for Latin America which pretty much covers the entirety of South America.

Though all they really do is translate the US PS blog entries...

Oh, I didn't know that. But it's a bit outdated, if you ask me.

They're probably translating the Kaz Hirai video to spanish and making a map, I guess.

I wish that we would get a restaurant out of the PS3 "Restauration".

EDIT: Thanks.
