Three days after Lizard Squad's (http://www.engadget.com/2014/12/28/lizard-squad-detailed/) latest denial of service attack knocked the PlayStation Network offline (http://www.engadget.com/2014/12/25/xbox-live-psn-down/) (and Xbox Live, we'd add), the internet gaming service is gradually getting back on its feet. Sony now says (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/12/27/playstation-network-update-3/) that PSN should be up and running for all of its consoles. While the company warns that there might be some "intermittency" as it gets back into the swing of things, you theoretically won't face major interruptions during that big Destiny raid. It's not clear if Sony's infrastructure will be any better at weathering future digital assaults on this scale; given that the attack was supposedly three times larger than the previous record-setter, this probably isn't a permanent fix. However, it's good to know that you can squeak in at least some online gaming onthat shiny new PS4 (http://www.engadget.com/2014/12/27/so-what-did-you-get/) before the holidays are over.
