These articles about Xbox live being down always amuse me. By the time the author writes the article and it's posted here on N4G Live is back up and running again.
PSN goes down for matience. If gamers can't find a way to occupy their time for a couple of hours, then that's the gamers problem. Everything gets hacked, what else is new...
Went down twice yesterday for 10 minutes each time. Happens most years around this time with so many new Xbox owners combined with a influx of online traffic with all the holiday blockbusters. Still getting some choppy Halo 4 online perfomance.

There are more PS3 fanboys on this site so it's not surprising PS3 articles are heated up.
Xbox owners know MSFT's XBL only goes down due to traffic related stress for the most part.
Sony fans know PSN is a hot mess barely held together and don't have the same trust for Sony so they show more concern by flocking towards the news about it.
Steam is free too, u dont see it going down every week. Even when it does go down for maintenance once in a blue moon, gamers can still play.
