Sony PlayStation (Network) relaunch begins

Sony has announced that it will begin restoring its online PlayStation video game network on Sunday.

The phased restoration of services will begin in the US, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East.

The move comes more than three weeks after Sony discovered a huge security breach that led to the theft of personal data from millions of users.

The firm said its expects to have the network, including Qriocity services, fully restored by the end of May.

The restoration of Japanese and Asian services would begin soon, it added.

A little joy for PS3 owners. Although they are saying they have implemented new security measures, I am unsure their damaged reputation will be repaired any time soon.

I'm already over it, missed my PS3

p.s. PC will always be the master race

I agree, for that one simple reason I've never bothered to buy any of the consoles.

I like consoles for their simplicity and fixed performance. However, my gaming home has been PC/Steam since late 2004 and I haven't really looked back. I own both a PS3 and 360 but I don't spend nearly as much time on them as I do on my computer. I will say though that a lot of PC gamers may be missing out on some of the console exclusives... more PS3 than 360. I don't regret buying the consoles but I really lost a lot of trust in Sony over this whole debacle.

It's a shame that PC gaming isn't what it used to be though, because ports should be illegal!
