Founding member of Lizard Squad pleads guilty to cyber-crimes
 A founding member of Lizard Squad, a group of cyber-attackers that took credit for taking down the PlayStation Network in 2014, has plead guilty to cyber-crimes.
As reported by the Chicago Tribune, Zachary Buchta confessed to being one of the group’s founding members during his guilty plea, where he admitted to one count of conspiracy to commit damage to protected computers.
The charge can often carry a sentence of up to 10 years in prison, but prosecutors are recommending a sentence of 2.5 years if Buchta co-operates with a planned investigation.
Lizard Squad rose to prominence after disrupting the PlayStation Network with a distributed denial of service (DDOS) attack in August 2014.
The group also managed to get a plane carrying then Sony Online Entertainment president John Smedley diverted to a different location by tweeting a bomb threat at American Airlines.
Lizard Squad continued to hound Smedley after his move to H1Z1 developer Daybreak, and took responsibility for multiple DDOS attacks against the company.
The serious nature of the crimes prompted the FBI to look into the matter, while the UK’s National Crime Agency also begun its own investigation, and eventually managed to arrest five teens in connection with the attacks.

Come to GDC 2018 and learn how Bungie tells stories in Destiny 2
 The Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next March is shaping up to be a fantastic show, and today organizers want to make sure you know about a great talk from Bungie about the storytelling in its 2017 hit Destiny 2.
The talk is about how the Destiny 2 team told stories in the game, but it’s on the Programming track of talks so you know it’s going to be both technical and unconventional.
The talk, “Walking, Talking, and Projectiles: Storytelling Tools in ‘Destiny 2‘”, will see Bungie senior tools engineer Evan Moran going in-depth into Bungie’s new visual scripting tool called the Scene Editor that builds stories by coordinating AI movement and behavior.
This technique for non-cinematic stories keeps players in the heart of the action; Moran plans to showcase several examples from the beginning of Destiny 2 and explore the ways this new visual language supports complex coordinated interactions while chronicling surprises and pitfalls the team encountered along the way.
Plus, we have lots more GDC 2018 announcements to make in the coming months. For more information about GDC 2018 visit the show’s official website, and subscribe to regular updates via Facebook, Twitter, or RSS.
Gamasutra and GDC are sibling organizations under parent UBM Americas
