"Sony has declared that it is still unsure when PlayStation Network will be back online. The gaming network, which currently has 77 million users worldwide, went offline on April 20 due to hacker activity. An update today on the PlayStation blog stated: &amp;quot;At this time, I can&amp;#039;t give you an exact date, as it will likely be at least a few more days.&amp;quot;  The post added: &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re terribly sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work through this process.&amp;quot; Yesterday, Sony spokesperson Shigenori Yoshida told Bloomberg that Sony&amp;#039;s goal is to return PSN services by May 31. This was a slight misunderstanding, as Yoshida&amp;#039;s original statement had said that PSN services should return this month, without an exact date specified. As an apology for the PSN downtime, Sony will offer two free PSP and PS3 games as compensation, alongside a free 30-day subscription to PlayStation Plus and 12 months of identity protection for all users in North America and Europe.
