As we head into Saturday, Sony has sent out an update to PS3 and PSP gamers who are currently unable to game online or access services like Netflix and Hulu. All signs point to hackers.

The three-day PSN outage that has plagued online gaming for PS3 and PSP users and has complicated Netflix, Hulu and MLB.TV streaming for many subscribers since Wednesday is still not resolved as we head into Saturday. However, Sony did update its official blog to state that the reason the PlayStation Network is offline is because of "an external intrusion."

The phrase "an external intrusion" appears to be Sony's way of hinting that PSN was attacked by hackers or hactivists who were bent on shutting down the company's infrastructure a couple of weeks back.
