Last night I thought "this happened a few years ago, too, and we got free games as an apology" and now you tell me it was 14 YEARS ago!?

It has happened more often than that. The one in 2011 was the biggest outage, but PSN also got DDOSed by lizard squad a couple years after the 2011 outage

Yes, and I'm also telling you we'll get no free games this time. Business is more of a "fuck you" attitude in 2025.

Yeah, if they're down for over three weeks then I imagine they'll be forced to refund at least some of the PS+ price.

B..but 2011 was like 6years ago?? No?

Your math needs some work…

2025 - 2011 = 14

2011 + 6 = 2017
