I'm kinda glad Lizard Squad has taken down Xbox today.
What started as a great big slap to the face of many who would be getting new video games, in my opinion, is the best thing that could have possibly happened on Christmas.
Christmas is about giving gifts, eating good food and spending time with family and the ones you love, and more importantly to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Xbox has a way of breaking those habits and isolating gamers from all others. So, while the servers are down, people really have no choice but to sit down and have a nice cup of cocoa with the folks.
And I think you'll realize that you'll be the better for it.
Merry Christmas everyone, and have a blessed New Years.

I didn't take in consideration things like Skype and video chat for people who use it to communicate with others over long distances or parents who have gotten their kids xboxes for Christmas, and if that's the case, I apologize.
This wasn't meant to be a douche post, just my personal opinion on family time in the holidays. No need to get so worked up. If it bothers you, move on.

This forum taught me a valuable lesson: Turn notifications off!
Also merry Christmas. Lol.

Not everybody has the ideal family situation. Some families don't want certain members around, some people don't have the means to meet up with their family, and some people simply may not like their family. People shouldn't be forced to spend time with their family either because then it makes the family feel less important and sort of like a conciliation prize. I didn't play this Christmas not because if the hackers, but because I chose to go down to another state and visit everybody. Even then I assure there were plenty of times during the visit when I would just go back to my hotel and watch a movie because everybody was tired and just wanted to relax, rest up and even a little bit of a break from everybody before we went out and did something the next day.
