Anyone having issues signing into PSN? It is 6:30 AM EST in USA on 24-Aug-2014 and I am being timed out, tried hard reboot already of both PS3 and PS4. Their scheduled maintenance is supposed to start on Monday (Aug 25th, 2014). For reference here is a link below:

Yes it's down here in The Netherlands as well, there's a rumour going that it's hacked by a group named Lizardsquad. And apparently they've taken down some Battle.net servers as well.

Supposedly Sony got DDOSed by a hacker group known as LizardSquad. PSN has been down here as far as I know since 3:30 AM, it is now 2:30 PM.

I just bought the last of us remastered and it installed the disc and update on my ps4, but the game doesn't boot up? It just shows a static black and white screen of Joel and the girl (forgot her name) holding guns. Anyone else have this problem? It's annoying, cuz all I wanna do is play some single player.

LizardSquad made a bomb threat on flight 362 that had Sony Online President John Smedley on board. The plane then changed course and landed in Phoenix for a security check. LizardSquad himself says his name is Brian Willson from Las Vegas and he's trying to get the XBOX Live servers down right now. FBI, Homeland Security and NSA are now probably out to get him at this moment. I don't think he finds it all that funny when he's dragged into court for a terrorist attack.

I just can't understand why they/he would do such a thing... frankly, I find it a bit scary.

Fine here in Australia, what happened anyway? its been fine here all weekend and now Monday afternoon.

Its kind of fun we are so far away from other countries, attacks like this most of the time affect us last, or in this case, not at all :)

I'm not having trouble currently, but I was out watching a movie.

Also these hackers are attacking Blizzard, Steam, and Xbox Live as well.

Xbox LIVE Servers Now Limited due to DDoS Attacks

@SolidTy: yup.

Well, FBI is on their ass now. Bomb threatening/shutting down an airport will get your ass in jail for sure.

LOL, FBI cant do much anyway, a twitter name and account is all they got, and anyone in any country can say "insert name" did it and this guy/girl is "insert location".

Its fairly easy to mask your location and/or pretend your from somewhere else, this person(s) wont be caught quick.

@dhmatt90:

That's assuming he's from the US or a country which has extradition treaties with the US, otherwise he can taunt the FBI all he wants and they cant touch him.

@TheFlush: Should lock him/her/them up in Guantanamo Bay and throw away the key. No trial or jury, just treat it as a hostile terrorist attack.

30 minutes ago articles started floating on the net about the lizard squad doing the same thing to xbx live. Crazy how this kid or person is not only taking out the online gaming community. They also had a plane diverted with a bomb scare. Stuff just got real.
