Two threads have been made.

This one is more obvious to see, hence the topic.

(So go play Campaign or some AI map, or watch videos, or bang your computer thinking it's the computers fault.)



Does anyone have any guesses when it will be back up though?

Oh wow this clears everything up. I first go into a LAN game to explore some maps. Then I get the blue screen error saying something about some .dll file called igxpdx32.dll then it restarted my computer by itself?? IF anyone knows whats wrong or knows how to fix it please tell me.

Then after that I want to play some CMT games on my server and boom the Error for gamespy comes up. I was like WTF does this have to do with the blue screen error. But now I know its not me thanks for the info guys.

Answer:

Apparently gamespy is dealing with a major ping attack on there servers.

Greetings,

GameSpy's master game listing server is temporarily offline. Also servers show a 19,000+ ping through remote connect, then dissapear after a while. Due to this you may experience problems seeing games lists or playing games on Arcade. The tech team are aware of the situation and the problem will be resolved as soon as possible. We thank you for your patience and co-operation.

Thanks,

Lol, yeah...Microsoft will do anything..

thats the problem with MS... soon enough they're going to cancel all support for XP... and when the launched the 360, they stopped making xbox games and the console.
still... bill gates is filthy rich, so its not all bad. (for him! evil....)

anyways..... what does gamespy actually do? do there servers just have a list of servers which are up.... and when they were dead... you could still go direct IP... but I just played TMN instead :P
