Merry Christmas. Xbox LIVE and PSN are down thanks to Lizard Squad

4.3

Did you get a brand new PlayStation 4 or Xbox One for Christmas? That's great and all, and I hoped you thanked Santa, but it looks like you're going to have some problems getting the most out of your brand new console right now.

According to numerous reports, both PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE are both down, suffering from connection issues believed to be related to DDoS attacks from the notorious hacker group Lizard Squad.

Neither Sony nor Microsoft have confirmed the DDoS attacks, but Sony has at least acknowledged the issues with PSN. The PlayStation Support site, however, says PSN is "online," but when we tested it we received error code "NW-31201-7."

Microsoft has finally acknowledged sign-in issues with Xbox LIVE on Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Shows that those low-life scums have nothing better to do on Christmas other than ruining everyone else's Christmas.
