Sony Announce That The Playstation 3 Clock Bug Is Now Fixed


Sony have confirmed that the Playstation 3 clock bug has now been fixed and the consoles should work fine again. it appears that when the clock, in the consoles, changed to 1st March (when it changed to 2nd March in real life), the problem sorted itself out.

Some consoles may need to have their dates changed, you can do this manually in the settings or have the machine update the clock via the internet.

From EU Playstation Blog

Sony has also detailed how to get trophy data back. all that's needed to be done it load up the game, wait for the trophies to be installed, then exit the game and sync the trophies.

It could be possible that bought PSN games that people tried to play yesterday may not work properly. in this case deleting them and re-downloading the title should fix it.
