Is there a server issue going on or is it just my system giving me an issue?

Hackers don't take a holiday, it seems.

Hours after Microsoft’s Xbox Live went down Wednesday, Sony’s PlayStation Network went down, too. The service is now back. PlayStation Network and Xbox Live are how PlayStation and Xbox owners play online games.

Like the earlier incident, the notorious hacker group “Lizard Squad” is claiming responsibility for taking down PlayStation Network on Twitter, saying it has downed both networks with DDoS attacks — basically, intentionally overloading servers by sending a flood of bogus web traffic.

Sony’s “AskPlayStation” Twitter account has acknowledged the service issue, but has not stated whether or not it’s the result of a DDoS attack.

“Lizard Squad” issued a threat last week that it would take down the PlayStation and Xbox Live networks over Christmas. Another hacker gang, called “The Finest Squad,” had apparently exposed several Lizard Squad identities online, and it also learned that Lizard was taking the big game networks using DDoS attacks.

Pretty sure it not the 2k servers but PSN and Xbox Live being down either because of hackers or flux of new users.
