  2. Microsoft has basically bought me a PS4

    [quote user="ICN3D"]

    It's funny when ppl talk about PSN getting hacked. B/c:

    .

    1. from what I heard LIVE also has been hacked, but conveniently enough it's not big news

    .

    2. Sony has upgraded their network which is why it cost money to play online with the PS4 now....even though it's $10 cheaper than LIVE. It's basically like LIVE so there is a less of a chance it will get hacked again.

    [/quote]

    Basically like live?

    You're crazy if you tell me that PSN is as reliable as Xbox Live from a networking standpoint.

    Xbox Live has been hacked, but not for 24 days like PSN was...

  3. No server connection

    Been like that for 2 days - AGAIN. I've gone through this a couple of times since getting xbox one for Xmas. I would like to sever all ties with Microsoft online and just play some video games.

    That was a ddos attack,completely different from being hacked.

    Xbox live has never been hacked.

    For everyone's information, Xbox Live was hacked at Christmas 2014 by Lizard Squad.

    Makes you wonder why bother making a not-fit-for-purpose system when it's obvious that Crapsoft do not care.

    For the last time,Xbox live has NEVER been hacked.

    What happened at xmas was a ddos attack which is NOT hacking.

    Maybe learn the difference before making nonsense claims.

    DDOS means someone is over loading the servers with data requests to the point no body else can get a request to the server because its just too flooded.

    this can happen to any online website or game server that is targeted by the attackers .. its no big deal .. it childish kids having a tantrum while scream where are my sweets !!!! most of the time.

    laymans terms :

    your about to walk in a shop via a revolving door, but it has got stuck because four million other people are trying to get in all at the same time, while another four million are trying to leave all at the same time .... it's just not going to work.

    not sure how microsoft or sony will beable to stop it from happening? because the servers have to deal with the requests sent to it and how they could tell the difference between DDOS and normal requests?

    to top things off, all the time the DDOS attack is happening, every xbox thats tring to connect to xbox live is also sending out requests to log in ...
