Any familiar with the group “LulzSec” will most likely be well informed on what they have been doing as of recently. Lulzsec, or “Lulz Security” recently breached Bethesda Softworks' website, and in the process, grabbed over 200,000 acclaimed player accounts linked to the title Brink. Though this occurrence unfolded yesterday, the ensemble of hackers continued their devastation right on through today.
The infamous group dubbed this date as “TitanticTakeoverTuesday”, and ultimately began to bring down numerous websites and services. Early today, their first prime target was The Escapist, a online gaming magazine website. Users were unable to access the website while it was under rigorous attack. As the day unfolded, LulzSec targeted the insecurity of CCP Games, made famous for their Eve Online MMORPG. This attack was confirmed by CCP games themselves as it was reported that users were denied login service during the DDOS(Distributed Denial Of Service) period.
Not satisfied with all the trouble they caused, Minecraft was than hit by the mischievous bunch. Though fully restored and functional, Minecraft login and official servers were unable to be accessed during a brief period of time. Then, Finally, to finish up the insanity, League of Legend's login servers completed the cycle as they too were inaccessible by players desiring to game.
No motivation is claimed for these incidences, rather just incentive that anything can be done in part to poor security measures. The individuals seem to take enjoy in the distress they cause gamers, as numerous tweets often regard imitations of those who suffer during their attacks. Though unknown by identity, these computer masters have found themselves in the center of attention numerous times. With breaches of US Embassies, other congress releations, Sony, and Nintendo, LulzSec is truly developing a household name for themselves.
Following the bunch on Twitter, here are some screenshots courtesy of myself:

That would never happen, there is no pre-made program to do it for them and these guys have no clue how to actually hack stuff. They couldn't hack their way into a Notepad file.
