Ouch. Thank God my account wasn't one of the thieved ones, it appears.

The Microsoft Tech that said "Hackers have control of Xbox live and there is nothing we can do about it" should be fired immediately.

This doesn't affect me any, I don't have the service, but wow.

Reading the part of the unhelpful tech support was...Microsofty.

This is kind of odd. On one hand they could be getting hacked, or on th eother hand the people saying they wer ehacked could be friends with the "hackers" and are just saying they wer ehacked to help there "Friends" rep as "1337haxxors".

Holy Bush Administration, Batman! It appears that quick denial and ignoring reports to the contrary IS enough to sway the befuddled masses.

Seriously, people. There's more to this than MS feels comfortable talking about.

Eh, I'm just posting.

Personally, I'm indifferent. I haven't touched my account in months.

..so what the hell are you doing posting here? "Eh, I'm just adding to the pretty numbers next to the thread title in the worst possible way."

Really, this is odd. Then again, it;'s also Microsoft. So is there hacking or not?
