Want to play your new console games? Too bad! Xbox Live and PSN taken out by Lizard Squad - Polidicks

[url]http://gizmodo.com/hackers-are-attacking-psn-and-xbox-because-christmas-sp-1675132139[/url] [quote]Since late last night, it looks like a bunch of hackers have been attacking the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live online gaming services. Merry Christmas 2014, everyone! The PSN status page is currently listing its services as online, although the official Twitter support page acknowledges that some users "may be having issues logging in". The Xbox Live page, on the other hand, says that the logon service is currently unavailable. Or, in simpler terms, if you want to use the internet capabilities of your Xbox right now, you're shit out of luck.[/quote]

Immature little shits should stop making Christmas worse for everyone who wants to to play their presents.

Nintendo Wii U unaffected :v:

Now I have to spend the holiday with my family.

God damn it. That's why I can't activate my vita tv

Looking back at the Xbox One always online DRM, if they didn't remove it, everyone would be fucking pissed today. Anyway, you need the internet to play your games? I understand if it's multiplayer or you downloaded it from the PSN Store, but physically? Doesn't make sense. Glad the Nintendo eShop is up and running tho.

I get the feeling that they didn't actually attack them, it's just that the activity simply caused it, and they're taking credit.

[QUOTE=J!NX;46793429]Nintendo Wii U unaffected :v:[/QUOTE] Wii U confirmed superior console.

I noticed that yesterday night. Jokes on them, I don't celebrate Christmas.

Glad I don't have this issues by exclusively playing PC. 15yo me would be so pissed off that I couldn't play on my Xbox -- existential crisis level.

[QUOTE=Starlight 456;46793426]Immature little shits should stop making Christmas worse for everyone who wants to to play their presents.[/QUOTE] It's Christmas and people can't play their consoles, how horrible. It's not like there's many other things you can do during this time of year.

I guess this is why my Vita can't find my PS4

That explains why I can't update my xbox 1 :c Merry christmas.

[QUOTE=ZakkShock;46793490]That explains why I can't update my xbox 1 :c Merry christmas.[/QUOTE] Probably because Xbox Live got discontinued for it a couple of years ago.

How terrible that people are upset for being unable to use their gifts.

OH, Xbone. Nvm.

Glorious Wii U masterrace here, I report that not even the flood of Christmas Noobs has been able to take down Nintendo Network as I enjoy my ongoing 10-win streak as Shulk.

I'm gonna spend today with my family and I'll play it when it's up.

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793463]It's Christmas and people can't play their consoles, how horrible.

And not everyone has family, friends, or the enthusiasm to do stuff for the holidays.

I remember last Christmas when every gaming service was having issues. Nintendo Network, PSN, XBL, and Steam (mostly because they were giving away free copies of L4D2).

I think it was North Korea

I have no family, and I want to play GTA

[QUOTE=ZakkShock;46793661]"Sorry you're lonely, have you tried not being lonely?" A+ advice, bruh[/QUOTE] Doing something. Do you think people stop being lonely by sitting alone in their room playing consoles? It's like being upset about being fat and then eating a cheesecake. That's not how to stop being fat.

Looks like most of the attacks are originating from inside China. Isn't there a way to just sort of .... Blacklist the entire country. Who wants to play with the Chinese anyway. Run behind a wall, get shot, because his laggy ass still sees you running across the road

In fact, it's also possible to be lonely while doing something, believe it or not.

[QUOTE=J!NX;46793429]Nintendo Wii U unaffected :v:[/QUOTE] don't give them ideas anyways, good thing i've played GTA 5 online for 7 hour straight on ps3 today, so i've did all the work
