Noticed this was only today on Thanksgiving of course the servers
were gonna get bogged down for that moment. Now everything is back
to normal. Just found out the issue over 500,000 connections bogged
down the system.This morning it emerged that Sony has had to limit
some areas of Gran Turismo 5 while it works out a way to ease the
online congestion currently crippling the game.The high demand
coupled with GT5s constant communication with the internet is
causing all sorts of problems that spill over even into
single-player races.Sonys temporary solution? Disable your PS3
internet connection.Yesterday the online service was kind of in a
critical state, Yamauchi said.The data centre was set up to handle
500,000 connections but the number of connections we received
greatly exceeded that amount and there was a high chance of
experiencing problems as a result.
