ALBAWABA - PlayStation is going viral on social media due to an ongoing outage in its PSN services, as users took to platforms like X (formerly known as Twitter) to discuss the issue at hand and recall the 2011 incident that resulted in a 23-day outage.
The outage impacts the ability to play multiplayer games with friends on PlayStation, surf, or buy something from the store, and simply logging in won't do either.
Moreover, the issue even extends to single-player games requiring an internet connection to boot up, which is why many gamers hate that the developers make this a necessity.

Another added, "Literal flashbacks to playing Minecraft with my childhood friends after they came back on and we all talked about what happened."
"PlayStation communicates worse than my ex does."
