Gamers who received new consoles for Christmas might find themselves unable to connect and play with friends, thanks to a coordinated attack by hackers who claim to have taken down the two largest gaming networks. On what might be the biggest gaming day of the year, a hacker group called Lizard Squad is claiming responsibility for taking down both Xbox Live and PlayStation Network.

Reports of service disruptions began popping up earlier today, with both Xbox Live and PlayStation Network acknowledging issues with some core services. In both cases, users have had a difficult time logging in to the networks, which generally gives them access to connect with friends and play games requiring online access.

I WANT OBAMA TO LAUNCH A FULL SCALE WAR ON NORTH KOREA! They made the threats they were going to do it. This is why i want A REPUBLICAN in White House in 2016. Republicans know how to wage war Democrats cant fight back.If Obama can kill Bin Laden why cant he kill Kim Jun Un?

Xbox Live and PSN hacking with DDoS attack is unrelated to NK and it is not same as Sony Pictures that got hacked by NK government. The hackers who launched DDoS attack on Xbox Live and PSN have no life and they want to ruin our Christmas.

It is very dangerous to war with NK because NK will launch the nuclear weapon on South Korea, so Seoul is very closer to NK border so do you want to see Jiro's families die from nuclear fallout? That's not smart move to war with NK over hacking and you need to denuclearize the NK first before toppling their government to ensure that SK will be not attacked with nuclear weapon. We may face dangerous consequences from Russia and China - they are pal with NK.

Republicans already know about risk of nuclear weapon so war with NK is out of option, unless we or SK are attacked, so they are not stupid and it is not easy as you think.

Your thread may be nuked due to political statement in last paragraph so political discussion is off limit in this forum.
 
So let them Launch the nukes.Theyre only committing suicide. If they nuke Seoul the blast will kill almost everybody on both sides.So let em if they're really that stupid. And they cant Hit us we got defense missiles to take em out.

You don't understand about nuclear weapon carry extreme risk and they are VERY DESTRUCTIVE to earth so it means you cannot grow the food in radioactive infested area.

South Korea has a lot of assets that are more valuable to our economy system so I'm not going let SK to be down because of nuclear warfare.

It is not guaranteed for defense missiles to thwart the nuclear attack, so it is not promise nor tested. NK can launch over hundreds of nuclear missiles on SK easily so defense missiles can't catch all of it.

It is extremely stupid and our government isn't stupid about nuclear warfare, so I don't support to war with NK unless we (included SK) are attacked.

I dunno about you but in most wars... it was by Democrat Presidents.....

and to launch a "full scale war" on North Korea is to ignite a full scale World War 3. Thanks god we don't have any President - either Republican or Democrat to launch a war on merely threat.

Agreed, American history says so. :lol:

GWB was smart enough to not war with NK, but he did to Iraq that wasn't severe and not nuclear armed country.

severe? I disagree. it was a big mistake to go into Iraq and now we're stuck with billions, if not trillions, of dollars in on-going war debt and hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths including our own soldiers.

what WMD? what al qaeda link? what biological weapon? tsk...
 
Am i mistaken or are we just talking about video games here? Really? You wanna nuke an entire country about game servers?

Aw... alright, you have spoken for. lol...
 
Ahh he will find ANYTHING to blame it all on Obama (or any other president for that matter...). Dude... research your article first before you start digging yourself into a hole.

It looks like that they don't have anything to do with the NK attacks.. more of a 'theory' that they were... "MAY have" considering that this group attacked Sony before... more for "shits and giggles" than anything geopolitical.

But in perusing google there isn't any hard evidence just yet that they were involved.

Yes Ducky! Thats why we need an Republican president. Liberals cant fight back The arabs know it and China,Russia and North Korea know it too. Just like when Reagan became president right away Iran released those 52 Hostages cause they were scared shit of him when they wouldn't release them when liberal jimmy carter was in white house. Plus it was Reagan who bought the Soviet Union down.

he's talking about you.....

um.......... you might want to double-check on that.... you're off by like... 10 years
 
Um.. I don't think it really MATTERS what political party a president is. You are hung up on the whole 'us vs them' (Republicans and Democrats) when really BOTH parties have had a hand in one war, 'military conflict' or political boffing or another imaginable.

Stop digging that hole. Reagan helped to bring down the Berlin Wall- which was the START of the collapse of communism but the entire Soviet Empire still was not dissolved until the 1990s as Jiro said. It was not all Reagan as you seem to be implying Joker.
