[b]The Recent Hacking Outbreak: Discussion thread[/b]
It all started with Sony's network getting attacked in April. The culprits have been unknown but since then a group of hackers known as "LulzSec" have stuck their heads out. Running rampant on the internet and hacking Videogame developers, media and even pages belonging to various governments.
You can keep track of their atrocities here: [url]http://twitter.com/#!/LulzSec[/url]
June 14th:
The so called "TitanicTakeoverTuesday" has left many companies shutting down their services.
Among them are, CCP Games' EVE Online, League of Legends, Minecraft and The Escapist.
Prior to these hackings, Epic Games, Bethesda and a whole lot of other places have fallen victim.
An example of them being smug and the demands that they have.

Couldn't they use their skills usefully like... use their powers on IGN and check if they actually gets bribed to talk all positive about the Call of Duty games?
But seriously, this has to stop. I fucking hate how they're so fucking proud to play around with people's personal information, it makes me fucking sick.
Might aswell change every password you have ever created on any site ever, as far as this hacking goes, it's fucking pathetic (hey news, look at us, we can hack defenseless consumers!).

Nah, they couldn't do that. It takes more than an SQL Injection to get that kind of information.
Awww fuck I liked Bethesda. And I liked Todd Howard.
Lulzsec is doing this as a blackmail.
They posted on their twitter that unless Beth releases more Skyrim information and models a Lulzsec tophat in game, they will release private information like admin domains and shit.
[QUOTE=Ignhelper;30431434]Awww fuck I liked Bethesda. And I [i]liked[/i] Todd Howard.[/QUOTE]
It's not like Todd is dead because Bethesda got hacked...
Winner or heart, winner or heart!?
Why Bethesda? God damn, hack Infinity Ward or some other shit developer for once

it's like they're trying to out-autistic themselves every time they do a publicity stunt
Next target: [b]Valve.[/b]
Dun dun dun.
These hackers really need to stop.
Why would you do that? Bethesda is a cool company and never fucked over consumers in my book.
Bethesda really dont deserve that
Wow playing with people's personal information, so cool and edgy
I'm tired of this shit. Fucking stop.
In before they hit Steam next.

Wow that is rather pathetic. If these guys aren't careful they could end up ruining the whole PC gaming community.

Read the picture, no they aren't.
If they hit steam next and for some reason any of my games are broken/inaccessible/etc then I really hope that they either get arrested or somebody goes and fucks them up with a tire iron. You made your point stop being dicks now.
Please get the skyrim e3 demo please.
Thanks.
