PSN Down “For Maintenance” During Sony’s GamesCom Press Conference

By Luke Plunkett on August 18, 2009 at 12:00 PM

Sony threw a little notice up on their support site overnight, letting everyone know that the PlayStation Network will be down for a couple of hours on August 18. Say, isn’t that the day of Sony’s GamesCom press conference?

My, it is.

The outage is expected to commence at 9am PST, August 18 in the US, which in Germany is 6pm on August 18. Say, isn’t that the exact time Sony’s Gamescom press conference kicks off?

My, it is.

There have been countless rumours of major new additions being made to the PSN in the coming months; looks like we could well be seeing the first of those tomorrow.
