After PSN, Hearthstone, League of Legends and Path of Exile, hackers have turned their attention to Microsoft's Xbox Live service. Continuing a distributed denial of service attack (DDOS) against the service, Microsoft's servers are having a hard time mitigating the problem. The end result is difficulty logging in, joining parties, and connecting to other players games.
There are unconfirmed reports today that PSN has been hacked, though it's unclear as to the severity of it. Hopefully it's nothing like the situation that happened just a few years ago. PSN has been unreachable for most of the morning and the official AskPlayStation Twitter account confirmed the outage - while also responding to thousands of tweets from users.

This month on Indie-Ana Co-Op we've chatted up developer Inglenook Games, the masterminds behind the four-player pixelated RPG romp, Witchmarsh.

I’m not going to sling some gaming journalism schtick and talk about how females aren’t being represented fairly in the industry, or how microtransactions are ruining games. I’m not here to kick a dea...
The original Killing Floor touted itself as a "co-op survival horror," but the scares didn't come from any high tech graphics. Sure, the game released as a retail product way back in 2009, but even by those standards, the visuals weren't exactly blood-curdling. Instead, the "horror" we felt came through the realization that we were surrounded, or when we'd just ran out of ammo as soon as a really mad Flesh Pound showed up.
