Only a few days to PSN forum login

**C.Birch** · 03-15-2008

Well on the 17th we should find out what comes with the new PSN login with the EU forums and other official sony site.

Will we get a cool new site or system or will it just be the same old but now using your PSN login, post your views and what you think will happen.

**Hedrush** · 03-15-2008

Same old same old but with your psn login, thats my theory.

**C.Birch** · 03-15-2008

Yeah thats what my feeling is about it all, don't see where people are getting the idea that home will come with it.

**KatanaKing** · 03-15-2008

yeah crazy, nothing new is going to happen.....just be logging in with your PSN thats all, now if you make an inappropriate comment you will be banned forever from the PSN...hahahahhahah

They've said that they've some cool things in the works to do with th EU PSN login scheme though.

**C.Birch** · 03-15-2008

Yeah but they have said alot of things that just have not come true, like PSN games they said we get by the end of 2007 but still not got and stuff.

**Lethal** · 03-15-2008

There'll be nothing incredible, just an attempt to get more members most likely. Still overall a pretty nice feature to have though.

**Assassin3** · 03-15-2008

Ok, if this is happening with the EU forum, and you guys are saying NOTHING is going to come of it, then what about the Killzone website? They're linking that to the PSN accounts too.... Sony are doing something and my bets is that its Beta's for both Home and Killzone , to test the integration of launching a game from home...

best of both worlds you see, Home gets tested, the functionality of launching games from home is tested, and also the killzone 2 online features are tested!

**danlisa** · 03-17-2008

Sweet! Let the speculation begin.

Clue 1) Multiple forums are being linked to your PSN login details.
Clue 2) The SCEE Forums will be down from Mon 17/03/08 to Thurs 20-03-08.

Questions:
What kind of forum maintenance takes 4 days to complete?
Why specify the return of the forums on the exact same day that the PSN gets updated?

Deduction:
SCEE are conducting normal forum maintenance but, as usual, are f'ing slow doing it.

Speculation:
Everything we've ever wished for will be released on Thurs 20/03/08.

Yeah right!

I thought on the playstation forums that there was nothing to do with home with these updates?

Hmm, I must be psychic.

I don't know why I thought this might be done on time. Well done SCEE.

Hello all,

As you were most likely aware (after our deluge of emails and forum announcements over the past week!) the Forums were expected to be taken offline today, for a period of 3 days, to allow us to implement PLAYSTATION®Network authentication for Forum registration and login.

Unfortunately, a little more time is needed to add the final few finishing touches to the Forums for this update and so we have decided to postpone the planned changes. We now expect these changes to take place in late April.

Although the technical aspect of PSN Authentication is working fine, a little more TLC is needed in terms of the look and feel, and we just need some additional time to get everything ship-shape and ready for your arrival.

Sorry for the crossed post.

See my post above for the delay details.

**IWAO** · 03-17-2008

So it's now delayed till late April 2008! Anyway I hope it'll be something nice

**C.Birch** · 03-17-2008

So they need a full month more to edit the 'look and feel' thats a hell of along time needed for a small job if all the tech side is working fine.

**Assassin3** · 03-17-2008

Sony are now a joke in my eyes... stop delaying EVERYTHING and get on with it, crikey its just taking the piss now!

**Carl** · 03-17-2008

LOL SCEE really do like to delay things don't they?

I might try and get a job there... run into the managers office naked to get his or her attention and scream "STOP DELAYING STUFFFFFFFFFFFF AARRGHH" then proceed to wave my bits around as I chase un-expected people around the office

Haha, i'm sure that would be highly effective.

**DeanoIV** · 03-17-2008

A delay? Surely not? But it's regarding the PS3 and the PSN and they NEVER have delays do they? Ah well, what can we do about it? I'm certainly used to the word delay by now, it's just a shame I lost all my faith in them in the process.

Yes but with this being a job at SCEE they will fire you 2 months later as the paperwork got delayed

Now that sounds like a plan. You should also get some other naked person to spray 'silly string' around the offices....just for the hell of it really.

Is there actually any point of doing all this linkage stuff?
I'm not even a member of the official forums anyway. Should i bother signing up??

**Kung_Fu_Russ** · 03-18-2008

I think this 'dirty protest' is lacking. For maximum effectiveness, you need to leap on a desk, squat as if seated, and hit your bits repeatedly with a big wooden spoon.

seriously, though....This delay is indicative of Sony Europe's attitude..And for flip's sake..They announce the change about 5 days ago, and then at the last minute announce a month's delay. They MUST have seen the delay coming themselves.
