Wow. Last night what was only deemed a minor hiccup which escalated to a major error has now turned into a monster. Sony is advising 1st generation PlayStation 3 owners NOT to turn on their systems, because the clock bug would cause data loss. So while you’re trying to find ways on how to entertain yourself, feel free to read more posts from us throughout the day, because Sony doesn’t want you to use your PS3 for the next 24 hours. Don’t believe me? Here’s Sony:
We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours. In the meantime, 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.
Ouch.
