Sony is claiming the issues that hit all users who have the older Sony PS3 gaming console, known as the “Fatty” has been restored. The glitch was from a Y2K bug, that apparently was never addressed. All users should be able to sign into the PSN.
Quote from Official PlayStation Blog:
We are aware that the internal clock functionality in the PS3 units other than the slim model, recognized the year 2010 as a leap year. Having the internal clock date change from February 29 to March 1 (both GMT), we have verified that the symptoms are now resolved and that users are able to use their PS3 normally.
If the time displayed on the XMB is still incorrect, users are able to adjust time settings manually or via the internet. If we have new information, we will update you through the PlayStation.Blog or PlayStation.com.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
