MS twitter is filled with requests on a fix

Both PSN and XBL have had too many issues lately.

Oh, a competition of which service is down the most.

Here I go. I want to check out the PS+ Driveclub version. No dice.

Uhum only thing that is down is editing profile and recovering profiles, making a profile and looking in friend list. OH NOESSS.

Still better then NOT BEING ABLE TO PLAY ONLINE. (Hai cows.)

According to the link this is like the the 2nd or 3rd time it happens to xbox one this month

fyi it happened yesterday to PSN too the whole friends list thing lol

Why would they even need to play online when the PS4 has no games yet?

rofl. I heard smash is looovely.

I saw people on Twitter bitching out @xbox because their friends list wasn't showing up last week....it's like chill out people, not the end of the world. You could still play games online etc lol. People take this stuff too serious.

Actually I've been experiencing some issues with friends list a couple of days ago for a bit, but now they seem fine despite this message.

Someone farts on XBL and cows think it is a major win.

Seems like insecurity about PSN has brought out the best in them.

exactly could be worse, e.g PSN.

Cows look for anything and everything to make themselves feel better about their purchase. They spend more time trying to discredit the X1 than actually playing games....Wait, the PS4 has games???

For some reason I think finalstar rubs his nips whenever he makes a thread dealing with negative news on the xbox.

agreed.

@Kaze_no_Mirai: I wonder what's going on with both services. It's strange one day it's PSN next day XBL. I'll admit it happens more with PSN.

You win this thread. Congrats.

LOL, Xbox Live isnt down, just friend's list.

Xbox Live is working fine

Not for me

@Kaze_no_Mirai: I'm pretty sure you can thank asshole hackers looking to make a name for themselves.

I'm personally done with these guys. I think we need to find a couple and slit their throats on TV as a warning to would-be hackers.

You're scary. I'd rather just tie them down and tickle them.

@millerlight89: The mindset of people in today's society for the general population has fallen to the point that violence is all they understand anymore. Control through fear is the only way.

I am ashamed that I am beginning to see it this way also. The whole "me, mines, yo I gotta get mines" attitude is sickening. How about you work hard and get yours with integrity? Its easy to not care behind a computer screen.

@cainetao11: Exactly. Glad to see there are still a few who believe in integrity.

I find it funny that the lems are always first find out when Psn is down and vice verse for cows and XBL.

Really... comparing one game to a whole service.... are you really that daft?

This is the first time, I have seen their support twitter or anything regarding xbox support and my god it's crazy. A new thing all the time and damn people calling because they were accused of being racists and all sorts of other crap. Only on xbox... hahaha

Calm down cow, it's ok

Noticed PSN has been pretty bad over the last few weeks as well.

Cancelling my sub, it's always some problem with xblive, bad updates or downtimes.

Havent had any issues with my xbl. Sounds like the issue is just with friends lists anyway so i couldn't care less so long as it is fixed

@Krelian-co: bye. Don't let the eithernet cable hit you in the ass.

Well I suppose it was only a matter of time before karma eventually happened with lems recently circle jerking every time they hear something negative about psn.

What are you talking about?

up and running!

cool, servers being down wars.

So....its a good thing when servers go down yeah?

That dualshockers article reads like a fanboy piece like they're real excited another service is having hiccups.

It starts off with this "Looks like friend lists can’t catch a break lately" lol wtf?

Xbox Live has been fine both today and yesterday, it's the other day and the day before when it was having hiccups. The news piece is a bit delayed, because whatever the problem was it's obviously fixed by now.

Seems like it was fixed fairly quickly. I rarely ever have a problem with my Friends list. I did happen earlier this week. I saw it, but I didn't really care as all my friends were at work anyways and all I wanted to do was play Horizon 2, which I did with no issues. It seems like the issue was resolves within a couple hours. Of course this has happen on PSN as well, but the main issue with PSN was that gamers couldn't play DriveClub online off and on for the entire week. That's a bigger problem then some friends list being unavailable for an hour or two.

Cows should stop throwing stones when it comes to online service. Its something yous will never win.

...and it dont effect me at all since 99% of my gaming on consoles is singleplayer games i have on disc.

I don't even play online with my Xbone due to lack of exclusive games that interest me so I never noticed. Thank god Gold comes with GwG games these days or I'd feel completely ripped off.

Explains how the US government does things.

Yea, i feel the same about both.

I just bought Horizon 2 but thats about all there is aside from DR3.

Same with PS4. I play more TLOU and AC4 than anything else.

I don't even like racing or I would have bought FH2 and Mario Kart 8.

I already beat TLOU on PS3 so I didn't even buy the PS4 version with DLC either. Thank god for my backlog as 2014 has been a terrible year.
