Original:

The graph shows outage reports which are spiking up for all these services within the last hour.

PSN reports also spiking up at 3PM EST.

 

[Punished Miku]

I blame PS Stars.

The end is near.

 

[Sp3eD]

Xbox series X is pretty useless without being able to sign in. Can’t even watch Netflix, YouTube, or any other streaming apps. Not sure why they tie that to signing in.

 

[Skifi28]

 

[Dusktildawn48]

Was about to help someone beat Giaus in the elden ring dlc and can't can't get on.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Ah thank fuck for that thought it was just me.

 

[Markio128]

Yikes, seems odd that so many have gone down at once.

Said the vicar.

 

[Bond007]

Most of that is useless anyway

 

[FoxMcChief]

That’s why I couldn’t remote play Elden Ring DLC with my Xbox on my lunch break.

I had to resort to starting Elden Ring DLC on my PS5. It’s funny how fast I got to the Shadow Keep.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Hopefully this is the EMP/Nuke I’ve been so desperately waiting for

 

[GHG]

 

[Kittehkraken]

Roblox, Minecraft AND Fortnite?

I agree but you always had to sign in to PSN to stream too...since PS3

 

[adamsapple]

PSN reports also spiking up at 3PM EST.

 

[Aion002]

I was able to login on xbox... but the store doesn't work and I can't do the daily gamepass rewards.

At least I was able to do the normal rewards and keep my streak.

Hopefully they fix it today...

Weird I was just playing on the psnow on the deck, is it localised in the us?

If you're already signed on you're probably fine.

 

[MacReady13]

Yeah but get this- just imagine a future where you can ONLY play on the cloud and everything REQUIRES the internet for it to run? Isn't that an AWESOME future?!

 

[Magic Carpet]

Steam? Do I get to test if I setup offline mode today?

 

[feynoob]

Too soon. If Xbox live service and PSN is down, it's gonna be shitty for MP games, or games that require internet connection.

 

[solidus12]

SonyToo

 

[azertydu91]

Nope I disconnected and retried and even though I had an error the first time, I could connect and play right after.

 

[Wastelander92]

Hacker: If I can’t win, no one does!!

 

[ThaGuy]

I always wonder how Nintendo rarely has issues with the worst service

 

[adamsapple]

Then it probably hasn't hit your regional blades yet, or is localized to specific parts of the world only.

 

[FoxMcChief]

I heard this is happening because Topher likes Starfield and Horizon.

 

[Topher]

Now you can safely play Starfield without Ass of Can Whooping spamming you with hateful messages when he sees you playing it.

Well good luck to you guys.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Damn I was going to finish up Diablo IV

This takes down all the GAAS shite, it's a worthy cause.

 

[Pallas]

Probably not just a coincidence that everything is going to shit at the same time. Anyone know if Nintendo is affected too?

SonyToo

Your point?

 

[ResilientBanana]

Most likely parental controls.


AWS is also reporting down. Seems like a larger issue than game services?

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

This situational disability won't stop me

 

[AJUMP23]

This is a disability.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

The First Descendant so successful it even takes down all these other networks with it.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Such a situational disability won't stop me

 

[ManaByte]

Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

 

[cormack12]

Won't they all just be symptoms of xbox live being down? I.e. people conflating the game outage with the service outage

 

[DaGwaphics]

Is there an internet connection link between the companies, maybe a low quality upstream provider (HE, Cogent) that has a routing problem? Or some kind of denial of service attack targeting the gaming space.

Weird that they all have problems on the same day.

 

[Banjo64]

Well well well.

Based NSO still up whilst the rest of these amateur services go to pound town.

 

[Mr Moose]

Your point?

It's not down.

 

[LordCBH]

Thanks Obama

 

[splattered]

I started having general internet connection problems a bit ago then noticed I couldn't log into xbox stuff/games... thought it was just me

 

[Punished Miku]

Its down for me. This isnt funny anymore. I expect results within the hour or a free game.

 

[FeralEcho]

We should now ask these companies the same bullshit question they keep asking us as a reply to the always online requirements:

"But don't you guys have internet?"

 

[Pallas]

It's not down.

No clue about today but they were down yesterday. If OP is referring to that, he should read more carefully.
