PSN, Battlenet, Riot, and others DDOSed; PSN returning lightly toasted with butter

But computers repair themselves like this:

That is a Type 666 Firewall. It's very hard to breach. Time to deploy the GAF Units:

"PSN Status: Online"

Is it? Seems that it's not online... at all. Why do they lie to us.

you realise it takes a while for the network to be fully functional again and think of the 10 MILLION people trying to log back on
 
So there is literally nothing these companies can do about this? It's been an ongoing issue with blizzard for a few days and obviously Sony all day today.

Well the law can prosecute, that's about it. The only way to prevent a DDoS from flooding your servers with full certainty is to not have the network at all. Essentially they're indistinguishable from a customer in that you would have to lock out the customers to keep the attacker out.
 
After taking a few minutes to find games in Gears 3 over the last two weeks (not Titanfall bad, but it took a bit), I have been fighting nonstop with people since this whole thing happened, haha.

I realize that Xbox seemed to have issues, or so the webpage said, but it seems like people plugged back their 360's or something.

Good thing I own two FIFA14's on both systems, too, my brother needed his FIFA fix as well, haha.
 
So what happened in the past few hours? What happened to that Twitter account exposing the IP addresses and claiming to be the real hacker?

Anyone? Seems like both parties are still claiming responsibility for the PSN attacks, and that the LizardSquad seemingly isn't afraid of the FBI.
