Sony has addressed the recent PlayStation Network (PSN) outage, which lasted 24 hours over the weekend, attributing it to an operational issue. In response, the company is offering PlayStation Plus members an additional five days of service as compensation. However, many gamers are expressing dissatisfaction, feeling that this gesture is inadequate compared to past responses—like offering free games during more extended outages. The lack of clear communication from Sony during the incident exacerbated frustrations, with many users seeking a more detailed explanation of the issues encountered. Despite the return of online gaming, the community's response has been lukewarm, questioning whether the five-day extension meets their expectations. Gamers are hopeful for better communication and more meaningful compensation in the future.
