Sony have come under fire after the unexpected '8001050f error' hit the PlayStation Network, bringing the online PS3 world to its knees.

Sony UK have responded to the problem, with David Wilson making the following statement to Sky News:

“We’re working flat-out to fix the problem. We’ve got guys here working on things and our Japanese team have been working through the night to get this sorted.”

Mr Wilson then said that ” affected PS3 users can still access offline play” or ”other functionality that doesn’t require network access.”

It has been reported however that the problem has affected offline play as well, with users unable to access many of their games that rely on the trophy system.

On the official Sony PlayStation website, the following statement has been issued:

"We are aware that some users are experiencing error code 8001050F and a network connection failure when signing on to PlayStation Network. Those of you with the newer, “slim” PS3s (120GB/250GB) seem to be unaffected.

"We are currently working to restore service as a matter of priority and will update with further information as necessary. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and continued support."

"We believe we have identified that this problem is being caused by a bug in the clock functionality incorporated in the system.


Errors include:


The date of the PS3 system may be re-set to Jan 1, 2000.


When the user tries to sign in to the PlayStation Network, the following message appears on the screen; “An error has occurred. You have been signed out of PlayStation Network (8001050F)”.


When the user tries to launch a game, the following error message appears on the screen and the trophy data may disappear; “Failed to install trophies. Please exit your game.”


When the user tries to set the time and date of the system via the Internet, the following message appears on the screen; “The current date and time could not be obtained. (8001050F)”

Users are not able to play back certain rental video downloaded from the PlayStation Store before the expiration date.

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."

Data loss has also been reported, and users are currently advised to switch their consoles off until the problem has been fixed.

I'm pretty sure that if everything fucks up when a server goes down; something is very, very wrong.

My friend at school was bawwing about this.

He said microsoft hacked sony and that's why this happened :/

Well every server gets glitched at one point... xbox has multiple servers so if one goes down, their noy affected. While ps3, if one server goes down, were all screwed.

When ps3 releases the optional pay to play servers, this shouldn't be a problem.

Having an xbox 360 is almost pointless when you have a decent computer.
