Snoop Dogg is pissed about Xbox LIVE’s outages

In response to today's issues with Xbox LIVE, iconic rapper Snoop Dogg has issued a stern warning to Microsoft and Xbox: "Fix your sh*t or PlayStation here we come."

Snoop Dogg took to Instagram to post his displeasure with Microsoft's Xbox LIVE service, which was down for several hours today, impacting Snoop's gaming on Xbox One.

"A message to Xbox One or Microsoft or whoever the fuck: Y'all fuckin' servers fuckin' wack, man, y'all gonna make me switch to PlayStation if y'all don't ever get this shit fixed. It's that difficult to play somebody online. What the fuck is you doing, Bill Gates? Fix your shit, man."

Bill Gates has not responded and mostly will not given the sheer volume of threats on the internet. Microsoft is likely well accustomed to verbal assaults via social media, but coming from Snoop Dogg? That's gotta sting a bit.

For what it's worth, the Xbox LIVE core services appear to be up and running now, but it may be too little too late to win back the rapper's support.

Snoop posted another response shortly. It reads: "Xbox 1 f*cking sucks online yes i said it PS4 here we come. Ceo. Hit my peoples up we done with xbox."

Judging by the 35 million-plus PS4s sold, Sony probably doesn't need Snoop's endorsement, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt to have the support of someone as influential as Snoop Dogg.
