....Video Games
- Had trouble connecting to Xbox Live or PSN yesterday? That's because the hacker group, Lizard Squad, decided to ruin some Christmas days by preforming a DDOS attack on the networks. Both seem to be up now.
- Call of Duty: Advance Warfare has released a new mode that is all about the sniper. The mode, called One Shot, is, as described by Advanced Warfare developer Sledgehammer in a blog post, "a brand new snipers-only game mode with decreased health and highly specific classes." It has five different sniping classes that the studio says were created in collaboration with the famed Call of Duty pro player, NaDeSHoT.
