Just played 6 rounds of For Glory Smash Bros. Did pretty well, too. Must be all the Christmas newbies.

Seriously, though, i didn't think Lizard Squad would be able to pull it off on one network, let alone two of them.

I'm no expert, but when they surprise attack MS or Sony and take them down then yeah that's kind of understandable. This situation however was announced months before it happened. Couldn't MS and Sony do anything to prevent this?

One would figure they'd be prepared for a simple DDoS attack in general, unless Lizard Squad are deploying something quite sophisticated or Sony and Microsoft were both negligent in preparing for this, which is unlikely. One of the two maybe, but both?
