Playstation Home update - 25th of June 2009
Well its that time of the week again (and I don’t mean Friday), Its Playstation network weekly downtime! Playstation Home’s downtime today will result in the return of all your long lost items.
MusterBuster (PSN Community team leader), has today confirmed that the Home downtime will bring back most of your long lost reward items from games and events played in Home since the Extended Closed beta trial (but not the closed Beta). He states that not not all items will be recoverable, and any items that do not re-appear after the work is done today, will be lost permanently.
Downtime to Home while the work is done will be approximately 8 hours and will be down from 8am this morning. The next Home content update will be on the 2nd of July.
