Warfare 2 did not run at all online or offline during Leap Year bug.
Game might have run if not initially connected online that day.
A firmware update where Sony controls your system test.
The leap year bug had to do with Trophy Syncing. That's why you couldn't play the game offline.
Try taking your PS3 offline right now, and then play some games. If one of them can't be played (aside from the obvious ones like Warhawk and MAG), then I'm pretty sure it's something wrong with the game.

No kidding, everyone knows that, and no there is nothing wrong with the game disc, just Sony.
Hypothetical now.
On that day Trophy bug happened only if you initially was connected that day, game did not work period. Even after disconnected from PSN game did not work. Had I not been connected to PSN that day, Warfare easily would have run offline. A hidden PSN control your fat system Date Bug Test? Sony "Fix" was to wait 24 hours, game ran fine after the wait game date rollover fix.
I'm reading all this and it's just bad it's like they holding people up for ransom.
If you want to play the game you purchased with your money update or else.
I have to say it's only a matter of time before Nintendo and Microsoft follow suit.
As far as I know they only been doing firmware updates to update and add new features and obviously curb piracy but I'm sure they will follow suit and start to remove "unneeded" or "unwanted" features.
This is for security reasons. Piracy has become so bad with the PSP, that Sony has even considered pulling the handheld out of the NA market. The OtherOS feature apparently creates an opportunity for those who want to hack the system, and after the PSP disaster Sony isn't going to play around.

No, all they had to do was patch the hypervisor. They didn't patch the security flaw and simply decided to remove the entire feature. What happens if an exploit is found in the PS2 BC of the PS3? Sony will just pull the feature. This cannot happen. Sony don't have the right to remove features from hardware that we paid for. That's the bottom line.
