You can't be blamed for continued skepticism about Sony's ability to bring back PlayStation Network and everything surrounding it, given the usually vague and often shifting promises behind its return.
Many features of PSN (like multiplayer) have been back for a little while now, but the PlayStation Store remains down.
If you're unable to log into PSN throughout today, it's because Sony's taken the service down to apply some behind-the-scenes patches to ensure the rest of the restoration process goes smoothly. Sony's said the PlayStation Store and other features should return to most parts of the world by week's end. Japan isn't so lucky.
"Thank you once again for your patience as we work to return PSN to the highest level of service," said Sony Network Entertainment VP Eric Lempel on the PlayStation Blog.
Players already logged into PSN should be able to stay logged in during the downtime, though.
