PlayStation Network undergoing maintenance today

PSN will be undergoing some scheduled maintenance today, meaning you won’t be able to access it for a somewhat lengthy period of time. The service is expected to go down around 8 am (Pacific Daylight Savings Time) and won’t be back until 5 pm (again, Pacific). Now, granted, the average person has work or some other responsibilities to take up their time during this period, unlike nocturnal bloggers whose work shift should be wrapping up around then.

But what if you wanted to partake of some of the fine PSN offerings making their way into the PlayStation Store today? Not to worry. The PlayStation Store has updated early with this week’s content, so you have a chance to grab it before the network shuts down.

If I may be so bold as to recommend DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue, I know I’ve been having great fun with it this morning.
