Here we go again. It seems that even on Christmas day gamers can play in peace. For the umpteenth time, the notorious hacker group known as " Lizard Squad " is back again to the attack of several services, including Xbox Live at Microsoft where he is currently unable to login as stated even from the service status .

Although in recent days has been made public the General information and the IP addresses of the Lizard Squad by a team of hackers competitor, the Finest Squad , to allow American law enforcement to arrest some members of "cybernetic lizards", it seems that the desire to put in turmoil the world of video games has not yet an end: the team of hackers had already threatened a few weeks ago that for the 25 December there would be an attack that would lead to a State of "permanent failure" on Xbox Live, and in fact already since yesterday evening the Microsoft service accusing some anomalies; for some time, precisely from 19:00 instead of today, it seems that Xbox Live is completely offline , affecting both Xbox One that Xbox 360 . And the Lizard Squad claimed the fault of disservizo, claiming to be conducting a DDOS attack both Xbox Live and PSN.

Obviously Microsoft has already announced to be working to restore the operation of the service, so that we can tell you at the moment is to wait patiently: we will inform you if will emerge more news.

If you want to instead monitor in real time the State of Xbox Live, you won't have to do anything but watch this page .

22:00 Update -A British team of hackers, "Anonymous Protection" claims that he pledged to counter the actions of Lizard Squad and restore the proper functioning of the service. And in fact it seems that at the time many manage to login. We don't know yet whether it is a temporary condition.

09:00 Update -the service still has problems, although in a more intermittent. Some players are able to log in while others are still stuck. Anyways, once you log in it seems that many games will still experience problems with the online game. We look forward to the complete resolution of the problem, but in the meantime if you want to play single-player titles, you can use the console in offline mode (settings-> network-> go offline).
