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

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793718]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.[/QUOTE] Maybe I already had Christmas celebrations with my family and now I would like to play gta 5 I guess that explanation wouldn't allow you to foist your arrogance on others though

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793642]That's just sad, maybe you should at least try doing something instead of wallowing in your loneliness?[/QUOTE] I should do something? I spent all day opening presents and shooting the shit with extended family, because that's what I enjoy doing. And I'm not so ignorant that I judge other people for not wanting to do the same.

*steam get's taken down Lizard Squad arrested the next day and executed.

My dad just wants to relax and play some destiny, I was gonna hang out with him and show him his titan sub class :(

I heard my brother yell out FUCK and hit something when he couldn't connect to Xbox Live. :v:

[QUOTE=certified;46793513]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.[/QUOTE] In an unlikely plot twist, the Wii U and PC are united in their superiority over other platforms. If only for a day.

"What do you do for fun?" "I play video games, how about you?" "Oh, me? I stop other people from playing video games."

Hah, jokes on you, the Only console game I got this Christmas was Smash Bros Wii U

I've been playing Super Smash Bros on my Wii U, it's great. Really feel for you guys who can't play anything though.

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793463]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.[/QUOTE] Hey ho - people are different.

i'm spending my christmas calling people lonely on facepunch

I'm having problems connecting to the Nintendo eShop. Probably the DDoSers fault, not because it's Christmas or anything. I sure wish I could be as cool as them.

[QUOTE=Mr Anonymous;46794014]Only three? [editline]25th December 2014[/editline] How much of a low-lifed thundercunt do you have to be to spend your Christmas performing a DDoS.[/QUOTE] Well when you get nothing for Christmas because your dad works at Burger King to support your mother's out of control meth and Xanax addiction, your school's out for christmas break and you have no friends What else IS there?! The only joy in your life is to see others have less joy than you

Jokes on you, i got a Wii U for christmas :v:

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793642]That's just sad, maybe you should at least try doing something instead of wallowing in your loneliness?[/QUOTE] Doing something, like using the gifts our families gave us?

I think Xbox Live is coming back up, updates suddenly started downloading again and its at least making an attempt to log in.

[QUOTE=The freeman;46794113]I think Xbox Live is coming back up, updates suddenly started downloading again and its at least making an attempt to log in.[/QUOTE] Battlefield servers just started working again, too.

I hope they are prosecuted and eaten

[QUOTE=J!NX;46793440]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] youd get slower connections but major companies like these guys completely expected something like possible down time for today so i actually doubt everything went down from high traffic alone.

My xbox profile wouldnt even login for aome reason, deleting it and redownloading it solved it though. Been trying to play Destiny all day, just got an update and finally got in.

[QUOTE=itisjuly;46793718]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.[/QUOTE] All of my friends went home for the holidays and I work customer service, which means I have to work tomorrow to handle all the returns I guarantee we're gonna have at my store. That means I couldn't go with my family to visit my grandparents this year, who live >5 hours away. However, what I [I]can[/I] do is play GTA V with my friends who are at home right now, playing the new update. So yes, people [I]do[/I] stop being lonely by sitting alone in their room playing consoles, when consoles are how they can connect with people they would otherwise not be able to interact with due to work schedules and distances.

[QUOTE=Fangz;46794333]Nintendo is being [url=www.gonintendo.com/s/244295-wii-u-3ds-experiencing-nintendo-network-issues]hit now[/url].[/QUOTE] That just seems to be the usual downtime of Nintendo Network during Christmas. I can remember waiting three days last year to get the Pokemon X/Y patches.

Damn...I missed the GTA christmas special..

I can't believe it's STILL down. For PSN at least. This blows, but at least I got the Christmas stuff in GTA yesterday.

[QUOTE=Fangz;46794333]Nintendo is being [url=www.gonintendo.com/s/244295-wii-u-3ds-experiencing-nintendo-network-issues]hit now[/url].[/QUOTE] Nintendo is really good with internet-related things so as soon as the carrier pigeons arrive the IT team will fix it

It's been down since before I even opened my PS4, this is ridiculous.
