Dec 26, 2014 i read that it was was two dos attacks from some edgelord hackers that wanted to f--- up ppls christmases for all the people getting new ps4s and xbones
Dec 26, 2014 XBox Live is apparently online. PSN still down. I'm usually one to say bah just chill it'll eventually come back on. But, if it's out for a longer period of time like in 2011 then yikes. I only say that because they're now charging for online. If it's the same service but now charging us then beef up the security a little... it seems like PSN gets hacked once every month or two. Some hacks are very minor and don't take away much but still.
Dec 27, 2014 this is f---ing bs man... not only can i not play online but apparently i can't play any of my digital downloads either.. tried, laying metro? nope, metal gear, nope, PEGGLE? nope lol wtf this is ridiculous.. It was down all day, fine go to work for 12 hours, come home still down.. It scares me how dependent this generation is on online connectivity. When the ps3 went down for a few weeks, it wasn't that bad, you could still play everything cept online. now i can't even access my saves if they were saved to the cloud, so i either have to start a game over or just wait... f---ing lizard squad...
Dec 27, 2014 Actually the hackers claimed MS was the easier one to take down. Almost nothing in place of security. At least Sony made them work for it a little bit lol. http://www.businessinsider.com/why-...own-xbox-live-and-playstation-network-2014-12 Lizard Squad spoke with WinBeta on Thursday via an encrypted connection, asking the group about its motivation and methodology. Here’s what it learned: Taking down PlayStation Network and Xbox Live started “for the laughs,” but eventually the collective found a cause to rally behind — forcing these companies to upgrade the security on their networks. Lizard Squad chose Christmas Eve and Christmas Day because it believed “it would anger and reach the largest amount of people.” The g--- considered taking down Nintendo’s online service, but did not, with no particular reason given. When asked if the group would consider addressing other targets, Lizard Squad said it “could take down NASDAQ if they wanted to damage the economy,” but said that’s not its goal. The easier game network to take down was Microsoft’s Xbox Live. Sony had apparently upgraded its security recently, which took “a bit of time to work around,” but Microsoft had “almost nothing” in terms of security. Lizard Squad has not said when the attacks would stop: It said they would continue until the companies “learned from their security issues.”
Dec 27, 2014 If you guys want to play your games offline. Do this: 1) Go to Settings 2) Go To Network 3) Uncheck the box that says "Connect to internet" You'll now be able to play games offline fully. I did this and can now play UFC.
Dec 30, 2014 I bought Walking Dead Season 1 and 2 for 6.25 each last night. Discs here are 29.99. Figured that was a great saving. Especially b/c I picked up Wolf Among Us for 19.99 the other day. All in all paid 35.09 for 3 games that originally would be 101.67 after taxes. Great savings Mr. Costanza. The only issue is I know the ending of Walking Dead Season 1... just like Red Dead Redemption's ending it was spoiled online for me argh lol.
Dec 30, 2014 yeah i went a little nuts.. bought walking dead season 2, mgs ground zeroes, peggle 2, dragon age inquisition, and metro redux.. i f----- up my back so kinda bedridden the next week or so.. why not..
Dec 30, 2014 yeah i got a herniated disc apparently.. i'm only 31, and it took me an hour to get out of bed the other day. f---ing sucks.. least it gave me time to catch up on my backlog.. been playing unity a bit and i am almost finished with it. i like it besides the bugs..
Dec 31, 2014 i'm not too sure how it happened.. It just kinda reared ts ugly head a few months ago, and got worse this week.. On topic. I bought drive club yesterday and the game is pretty fun.. The graphics are insane, and i have spent more time in photo mode then playing lol.. heres some pics i took.. Happy New Years..
Jan 1, 2015 I'm playing through Walking Dead Season 1.... I'm impressed. I wasn't sure if I'd like it when I played the demo years ago on PS3. But, d--- it's good! And the episodes are actually pretty freakin' long. I'm terrible at playing a liar though... always on that honest guy thang. Though I did Spoiler pick Doug over Carley b/c that b---- knew who I was lol.
