PSN down?

It always happens. As soon as psn goes down some hero has to leap in and shout but..but..Microsoft too!! As if that somehow negates or makes it better when PSN goes down. God knows why they feel the need to do it. It's like if an American complained about the rain in London and the person next to them started bleating but..but..It rained in New York last week. Pointless idiocy.

Dude....read the thread please. People mentioning the MS attack were responding to someone asking if this ever happens to them.
 
Goddamit. I took a nap for an hour and wake up ready to play Destiny right as PSN goes down. Fuck lizard squad.

Was watching Football and decided to get a few Destiny matches in, and then this. I really don't get the point of attacking PSN or Live.

Trollish. Should be bannable.
 
why is sony not doing something against it?
its not happening with ms or nintendo, but i hear it constantly from sony...?
is there something special about sony?

What are you talking about they got hit twice already and LS is planning a third attack on x-mas.

The hacker group who claimed to have brought down the Xbox Live services twice in December now say they are planning a third for Christmas Day.

So fucking pointless, i wanted to play TLOU remastered online and Garden Warfare.
Glad i have a lot to play on PC though.

Geez, i cannot believe I'm paying $50 for this awful service that barely walks.

Nothing is invulnerable to DDoS.

It's a virtual arms race and the Good guys are at a disadvantage of never knowing, anticipating DDoS's.

I had horrible experience on Friday trying to play gears3 with my friends. the player count got to the lowest i have ever seen, 99 people playing worldwide. usually it's around 5k-8k.
 
You do know this is a DDos right? This honestly has nothing to do with Sony this time.

The thing is, this happens pretty often and usually when i'm about to play.
I think Sony needs to tighten up the security a little bit.

If this is going to continue, i'd like to expect a form of compensation or a free months.

It doesn't matter. This happens everytime either Live or PSN goes down. Some hero will immediately leap in to defend their console of choice, and usually with wildly exaggerated nonsense about the other service being down for days. As you can see in this very thread.

Damn read the thread before posting. Someone specifically asked why it is only Sony and if ms ever has the issue.
 
Can't log back in.

Oh, okay! I honestly thought it might have been something sinister, like when you try to log in they grab your account or something. I was playing Shadow of Mordor and the game was very displeased that the WBID thing couldn't connect to anything.

Plus now I have to wait to sync my trophies! What the hell!

So is this kind of like a "haha, we screwed people over" sort of satisfaction, or does this seed from a deep sadness in these people that this is the only way they can get thrills in their lives?

Dude it's a DDoS they really can't do much about this at all.

I could understand if this was Sony network just crapping out on it's own.

I don't think you understand what a DDoS is ...

But thats not happening here so what is your point? Where in this thread is that happening please point t it out....
 
this is what I hate the most about my PS4

I have a desire to play right now but any title I choose right now is still affected when PSN goes down
 
Ouch!! Can you still buy them on the website? Or is that messed up too?

Website is down, i already got my free stuff yesterday so i'm good. I feel bad for anyone that didn't got the free games but man when free shit is available you don't wait until the last minute.
