Oh boy, here we go again.
>Having threatened both Microsoft and Sony's online gaming infrastructures over the past couple of days, the fringe group has now taken credit for stifling Xbox Live, which has just started not working in the last hour or two. For what it's worth, our Wesley Yin-Poole noted his inability to login to Xbox Live about an hour ago, while my service in the States continued to work until only a few minutes ago, so your mileage may vary on this disruption.
They're called the Phantom Squad and they've already claimed to DDoS Xbox live and that they're going to shut down both of the networks on Christmas. What does /v/ think of this?

Nintendrones take consolewars way too seriously.
Why they don't target Nintendo?

I think you are trying to build up some reputation for yourself since you have no life
Fuck off, no one cares about you're irrelevant faggotry.

These script kiddies never target Nintendo. Wanna know why? Because it's ok when Nintendo does it

They're probably Nintendrones. Just like that other kiddie "hacker" group, Lizard something or whatever. The reason why Nintendo fanboys do this sort of shit is because they're literally autistic, and care this much about their silly little console wars. Same reason why they shit-post so much.

The funny part is you thinking you're better/on the outside with a shit-eating post like this
Does anyone feel bad that Xbox One is already suffering from a lot of shit and now they have some random we r legun script kiddies causing unnecessary disturbances for them?

Can you actually defend against this?
How can stuff like this happen to sony/microsoft, don't they have measures in place to prevent this?

>DDoS Xbox LIve

>DDoS PSN

Nintendo barely has a service to shut down. What're they gonna do, take down the eStore and deny my access to the latest in shovelware?
Oh, the humanity.
