South African PS3 Home issue resolved Z(7,-12)

1 min read

There was a mini internet riot earlier when it became apparent that South Africans were being blocked from the new open Beta of PS3 Home. 

Well there is some good news, TedTheDog who is apparently the Home moderator over at the official forums has been helping out and has this to say

Just had confirmation that the fix will be going live in the next 20 minutes. It doesnt require downtime so is pretty straight forward. It was a missing line from a server file and they’re amending it now.

So kudo’s for Sony for listening to our issues and for the quick resolution to the problem.

Also a big thanks to MagicDude4Eva for starting the thread in the first place and for trying to rally everyone else to keep the issue in the limelight.

On the down side, the thread became a bit of a childish embarrassment for our country after one moron posted a comment about there only being about 10 gamers in Africa. Please guys if you want to defend the country it’s fine then start a new thread and do that, don’t polute a valid thread with childish bickering.

    Glad to know Sony gave us the fix so quckly.btw,idiots embaressing S.A? No,ya serious. Um,yeah.like some S.A dude that said in an article on N4G that more than 90% of people in S.A Play pirated games,and he bought a PS3 cuz he didnt want to support piracy, as 360s are already chipped and good to play pirated games right off the shelf at retailers. And whats worse,he said he’ll be emigrating in 2 months.

    Haha that guys was such an idiot! And then the thread derailed after we started talking about living in Mud Huts and Cheetahs attacking us while fetching water from the river! Ah that was a good night 😆

    lazygamer that was an international making fun and not a SAFFER if you read it correctly. I agree but I can tell you it was more jokes going for the ignorant people as if they hear Africa they think we still live in the stone ages. Atleast we achieved our goals unlike MS gifing you the finger -Sad but true!
