Everybody ready for their yearly paid online outage by 14 year old scriptkiddies?
http://money.cnn.com/2015/12/17/technology/phantom-squad-playstation-xbox/
What is even the point of this?
Sony gave a few free days of PS+ because of this last year, not much fucks were given -- wasn't even playing online at the time.

My guess is 14 years olds trying to be like DA SUPAH HAKERS ANOMALOUS by using script that they found on reddit or /b/ in an attempt to prove something
>consolefucks are going to be consolefucked for christmas
I'm ok with this.
I support psn outtages because sony sucks for paid online

Where did I imply I was mad?
stop giving them publicity, this is exactly what they want.
>charge for online
>cant defend yourself from underage script kiddies
Thats what they get.
And thats what retards get for supporting paid online.

Are there not laws that prevent this shit? I imagine there are, but it sure as hell doesn't seem like anyone's trying to stop or punish this shit.
>>320545234
That's fine. I get more free shit as a result.

>publicity
>>320551768
There is but the people that do this shit are literally kids so they just get a little tap on the wrist and told not to do it again because they're too young for prison. There was picture that someone dug up last year of one of those LizardSquad (the people that DDoS'ed shit constantly last year and also called in a bomb threat on the plane of Sony exec) people and it was an image of a pasty suburban 15 year old. Those are the kind of people doing this shit and it's purely for attention because I guess their mom is too busy with Tyrone to give them any attention.

Not sure what kind of christmas you are celebrating, but over here we mostly just eat christmas dinner together and then try to avoid each other to not cause further tension.
What online only PS4/Xbone games is there even worth playing right now.
All the worthwhile games out right now can be played fine offline.

I eat lunch at my place with parents, or at my uncle's. As for dinner, since all of my relatives live at an ass distance, I always go to my best friend's, since he always does big reunions and likes having me around for everything.

There are none worth playing but I think the new Need for Speed might be online only oh and Battlefront unless you want to play tutorial all day and then there's PS360 version of Black Ops 3

So literally the only people these kiddies are going to piss off is braindead star wars drones and the people that still play CoD.
They honestly shouldn't even bother, not even worth the little effort.
tasty tears of the paesants
>New consoles are down in prices
>Tons of people going to be jumping on all at the same time on christmas
>Increased traffic
>Servers go down
>13 year olds make up edgy hacker names, take credit for it
Seriously, hasn't anyone figured it out by now?

Killer Instinct

>Killer Instinct
Game hasn't been relevant since release
>>320551768
Of course not.
All of our governmental agencies that care about cyber-security only care about making exploits and hacks themselves for them to use rather then actually protecting people.
Well maybe, just maybe, it might get some kiddies to spend more time with their family during Christmas.
>thread full of pc reddit race already
At least we physically own our games. Have fun getting cucked by le fat DRM rental man
