What really sucks is that, early this week, my ps3 hard drive froze on me. I called in for tech support and they had me go into some submenu through holding the power button. I ended up having to restore to factory settings and, as I hadn't backed up, I lost EVERYTHING.

And now that the PSN is back up, I can get game software updates...but I can't re-download in-game content until the store is back up--meaning no BLOPS maps and no FIFA ultimate team. I'm also worried that my EA titles will make me repurchase an online code :-/ anybody know how that works, will it still recognize my original code for this system?

Could've been worse....

It just wouldn't do anything after I turned it on; the yellow hard drive light just froze and nothing came on the screen; I was able to get my disc out.

First they had me restore system files; then they had me do an option that told me "the hard disc cannot be accessed". They told me I'd need to send it in and have it repaired, but I tried the "restore to factory settings" option as a last resort, and it worked....just pisses me off because I was going to use the free PS+ trial to back everything up onto the cloud, too bad it only happened a week too late :(

That said, I could've been out a PS3 for three or more weeks, and been out $100, so I'm thankful I only lost five years' worth of saves.

im confused... don't you guys save your sign in info when you sign into PSN? If so why would you need your email you just gotta remember your password.

I mean, I signed up with an email account that doesn't even exist lol and I'm back on...
