Xbox Live Experiencing Issues, PSN Attackers Taking Credit

4.5
Xbox Live is currently experiencing sign-in issues and those claiming responsibility for the earlier PSN attacks, and the bomb threat against a flight carrying Sony online president John Smedley are taking credit.

Is anyone having issues with the Xbox Live Login servers?
— Lizard Squad (@LizardSquad) August 24, 2014

The good news is, Microsoft is fully aware of the issue, and has this message posted on the Xbox Live status page:

Xbox members, are you having a hard time signing into Live? We’re aware of the issue and working hard to find a solution as quickly as possible. Thanks for being patient in the meantime. Please check back in a half hour for an update on our progress.

The issue does not appear to be entirely widespread. While I did have issues signing into Xbox Live with my Xbox 360, my Xbox One did not pose any problems.

Well the X1 has a lot of servers compared to X360 and the Playstation consoles so it shouldn't get really affected. Mine is working fine though for both.

It's just a bunch of 13 year olds thinking DDoSing and being assholes is "hacking". Hopefully they'll grow up sometime soon.

Ache These people are attacking everything, if Valve is next I will die. I need my steam. D:


Steam will never get hacked, Just thinking that is giving me sickness. Valve will react in like 1 min the attack starts.
