I almost find this funny since many x-box users were laughing when it happened to sony. Not too funny now, is it?
It was never funny. People who were laughing at PSN users because their platform of choice wasn't hit were dicks then, and anyone who laughs at Xbox Live users now is also a dick.
Some of us are really wacky and have both platforms, and now have to worry about this bullshit twice. It's not funny and I'll say it again: if you think any of it is funny for any reason, you are a dick.
*sigh* Time to go change some more fucking passwords now.
You don't need to change your X-Box Live passwords unless you've used the same e-mail and password for that hacked porn site (and other random sites) as you do for X-Box Live, and if your e-mail and password appeared on the list.
X-Box Live wasn't hacked, Lulzsec only have the user info of X-box Live users who use the same e-mail and passwords for multiple websites.
This isn't a new occurrence, it's the same list of 62,000 names and passwords that was released a few days ago, it's just being misreported to imply that X-Box Live users have been specifically targeted, when in fact they haven't.
If any X-Box users have had their login information published, then it's just a coincidence and a consequence of using the same e-mail and password as they have done on the hacked sites.
There's a lot of interesting and relevant information in this Gamefaqs thread [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/927749-xbox-360/59477810] on the subject, including links to Major Nelson and Lulzsec saying that X-Box Live hasn't been targeted or breached, and speculation that this entire rumour was started and spread by a discredited SDF troll.
