I’m sorry to hear about all your stress @Wyvern! 
On my side my EA (Origin) account was hacked during the night. Luckily EA support was excellent and fixed it in no time.
Oh wow…what happened to your account? Did they steal anything or do anything to the account? And how did you notice it?
Thanks SOli, how was the holiday?
I got an email that my password has been changed. So I quickly did a reset password. My security question was in Russian though so I contacted EA and told them that it’s been hacked and they changed the security question and we changed the password. I also put in 2 factor authentication now.
Someone from Florida tried to hack my gog.com account. But their system caught it and sent me an email to confirm that I want to change my password.
On my side it’s pretty much my own fault I think. Some of my really old accounts all share the same password. Throughout the years I changed most of them but I don’t often use Origin so never got around to changing it.
I use Lastpass so will use that to check for duplicate passwords and just fix all my other sites that I never changed.
your post just made me do the same 
Not that it would really be a big deal if somebody hacks any of my game store accounts
Hello from the land of sunburn and muscle pains, how fare thee fine brethren.
Greetings and salutations, fellow gamer-holics
Thank Soli. Yeah pretty much. Some new furniture will be delivered this weekend, I’ve got some boxes to pack out still, and fibre is being installed today, so getting there slowly but surely. I smell a braai in the not too distant future though…
Awesome, that’s great that things are going well there. And you are lucky with the fibre! They are busy installing fibre in our complex at the moment so a couple of weeks still to go on my side.
Not sure if the braai is an invitation or not but if it is then that’s fine. 
Oh, it’s absolutely an invitation!! Just need to get the braai sorted first, then we will Afrikaans-it-up!!!
Good stuff!
On a different note. Man it sucks to be back at work. In 3 weeks I’ll be off for 2 weeks though. Plus then the XBox One X will be here so it’ll hopefully be two weeks of lots of Forza!
Do you have some time off over Christmas?
Yes thank goodness I do. I am off from 22 December. Will be at the folks for a bit though. but first I need to get the X and spend some time with it. Will have to have most of my downloads done before then. I just want to plug in my HDD and start playing. Plus now I have a 4K TV to fit the X
Nice. I’m also off from the 22nd. That’s great that you got the tv! Just in time for your PS4 Pro and XBox One X.
How are you finding the PS4 Pro? I suppose you haven’t had that much time with it.
I haven’t played any games other than GT Sport on it yet. But I did try GT Sport in 4K…it impossibly gorgeous. I can’t wait to try Forza in 4K when the X releases. Hopefully if my fibre is working I can start downloading more games.
NIce! I can’t wait! 
Which games will be your “launch” titles? I know of Forza, but what else?
Forza 7 and Gears of War 4 will be my two launch titles.
Then probably The Long Dark and then Elite Dangerous. But these plans have a tendency to change.
How about you?
