Global PS3 error causes network, game failure

Sony has been dealing with quite an annoying issue over the past few hours. PlayStation 3 owners started noticing something was wrong when a PlayStation Network error popped up when trying to connect online. However, the error is also affecting non- online centric games as well.

Many gamers will older PS3 models are noticing issues with logging into their PSN accounts. No matter what the issue is, Sony may be in the dark as well, offering a eerily calm “looking into it” response. Hopefully things will be up and running in no time.

UPDATE: The issue has now been fixed, as confirmed by Sony.

    I havn't had my PS3 online in the last week, it worked fine last night and now it won't work at all, I tried quick format, restore default settings and I even tried total restore. And it is still giving me the same 8001050F trophy information error. I don't understand why it is messed up

    This is effin annoying. I could care less of the PSN is down. Why then the console won't let me play any of the game offline? I am not keen on online play anyway.
