PSN now has a real time server status page
Sony has finally launched a portal dedicated to showing the status of the various PSN services in real time.
PSN has joined Xbox Live in having a detailed page that tracks the status of most of its services, in real time.
Everyone used to rely on the old page, which was never updated to reflect anything and everyone just checked PlayStation on Twitter for the latest updates on server outages.
The new page however looks better and has a separate row for each of the services such as 'gaming and social', 'PlayStation Store', etc..
Hopefully this will reflect actual server status in a timely manner.
