Luckily , I am a XBOX360 player . Not affected. Still , I wish PSN be recovered as soon as possible , more importantly , personal data and save files are not affected . It would be a disaster if personal data in PSN account be extracted , as it contains payment information such as credit cards and bank accounts . Good luck with PS3 gamers . For a happy Easter holiday , go buy a XBOX360 with Kinect .
