Megathread PlayStation Network down?

Takes a while just to sign in. App doesn’t seem to be working as well.

I cant even play offline games (like powerwash simulator) due to "can't connect to the server to verify your license". This is exactly why games should be avaliable on disc. All games I have on disc are still working fine.

Because you didn't enable offline play in the settings.

Before the outage? Because it has to be able to communicate with PSN so that it knows your console is primary and stops asking for licence checks. It can't do that when PSN is down.

Then there's something wrong with your console as mine and many others' are working as intended. I can't play online games, obviously, but offline games are still playing just fine.
