If you are attempting to sign in to PlayStation Network and get a message saying that it is the wrong password, don't worry. Sony has announced that it has reset the passwords on some PSN accounts because it detected "suspicious activity". The company apparently does this routinely when it detects suspicious activity, according to a post on the PlayStation forums."We routinely monitor for irregular activity, and if such activity is detected, we may sometimes reset passwords of affected SEN accounts to protect consumers and their account information," the post states.

Since then, the company’s online service has been deemed too "unsafe", and many have turned to competitors like Microsoft’s Xbox Live. Sony has since tried to woo customers back, and struck on a gold mine of an idea when it introduced the Instant Game Collection for PlayStation Plus subscriptions.

The list of games changes every month.
