Blog: SONY says: Don't play with your PS3! (Update)

That's a tough call, but as a reaction to their latest problem a lot of gamers appreciate the fast response - although many may be pissed, too.

SONY also confirmed, that the problem does not occur with the newer PS3 Slim model. A software patch for the other owners should be ready within 24 hours. I guess there will be a lot of coffee drinking at SONY tonight...

Update: SONY announced that the problem is resolved now. With the next day change, everything is working normal. Although the calculation of the leap year was defect, the next day change resolved that issue.

If your PS3 still is showing a wrong date today, just go to your settings and change it.

  1. It's going to be a loooooooong night
  2. I have a Slim (upgraded from a 40GB) but my copy of Heavy Rain is some kind of Lost by DHL, so I'm waiting here, too. But at least I could play a little MAG later on if I wanted... :-)
  3. Das habe ich nun schon den ganzen Tag gelesen... Was passiert denn wenn ich dasding doch einschalte? Explosion? :)
  4. [...] if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data.

    Das soll passieren...
  5. Sehe ich das richtig, dass die das Problem jetzt einfach ausgesessen haben und es sich mit erreichen des 02.03.2010 von alleine gelöst hat?!?
  6. Yep, das ist korrekt :-) Ich bin mir aber sicher, dass da noch mal ein Update folgen wird, nachdem die sich ganz genau anschauen, was da schief gelaufen ist.
  7. Ja... nicht, dass die 2014 wieder für ein Schaltjahr halten. :)
