[Update] PSN Is Now Up And Running
Update: PlayStation Network has recovered from the flood of Destiny hopefuls. You are now free to move about the galaxy.
Original Story:
If you’re trying to redeem your Destiny beta voucher or download the content, you might be having some problems. That’s because everyone is trying to get in at the same time.
The PSN store is buckling under the weight of an uncountable number of Guardians rushing to the Tower. We’re currently getting an error message that says, “The service is currently undergoing maintenance - E-820001F7.”
We think that translates to, “Ouch.” Sony is reporting via its support page that the service is “Intermittently Available,” which we think means, “Your mileage may vary.”
This assumes you can even get your vouchers, as the Bungie website is also experiencing significant problems. Ultimately, this means you probably won't be playing as soon as you'd like.
We’ll keep you posted as this situation develops.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
