Rockstar extends GTA Online's Christmas gift due to XBL, PSN outage
Rockstar's initial press release specified that a seasonal tree for GTA Online apartments is among its Christmas Day bundle, but it also encouraged players to check their inventory for "a few extra gifts." The festivities will continue on for New Year's, offering firework launchers to help welcome 2015, and the celebratory chaos will be available through January 5.
At the time of this writing, the outlook for presents is good – a status page for Xbox Live is currently showing green lights for online play.
Update: The PlayStation Network has gone offline since this story was published. Recent activity from the Ask PlayStation Twitter account notes that an estimated revival time cannot be given, but adds that engineers are currently working on resolving the issue. We recommend keeping an eye on Ask PlayStation and also checking the related status page before making plans to play on PSN.

I was really upset that I couldn't recieve any of the Special Crate Drops, thankfully I can. Good move on Rockstar's part. Glad they actually worry about the customer.

DeluxeHazard It is nice to see a company compensate its customers after LizardSquad ruined Christmas for many people. I am really going to miss the snowballs though. :(
I'm pretty sure snow is still going to be in gta v.

BENDZY Why on earth do the think there is need, too call a Christmas tree, a seasonal tree, that's idiotic.
Because if they call it a Christmas tree all the Jews and other religions will throw a hissy fit.

If they were being nice then we'd have heists. They have been lying to us since day one. Screw rockstar and all gamers. I'm getting tired of these "Gamers" nowadays. Believe anything the devs tell yall. Pathetic.
