Well that’s has put paid to me trying out the new Killzone DLC then hasn’t it? Yes, the PSN has thrown a wonk and is currently offline.

“We don’t have an estimate time, we are working to solve the issue as soon as possible, please keep trying,” tweeted PlayStation support.

Infinity Ward seem to think the cause of the problem is that the system is overloaded but there does not seem to be any reason to the surge in use. I managed to download the system update even though the PSN is offline so it cannot be that.

Our old pal Josh has also tweeted “Don’t try and upload a Vita save, it crashes the console!” so I suggest everyone has a nice cup of tea and watches the football, who are we meant to be cheering for, France or Ecuador?

UPDATE: Seems to be back, now I just have to wait for the 5gb Killzone Co-op expansion to download, meh.
