Rockstar extends GTA Online's Christmas gift due to XBL, PSN outage
Rockstar's initial press release specified that a seasonal tree for GTA Online apartments is among its Christmas Day bundle, but it also encouraged players to check their inventory for "a few extra gifts." The festivities will continue on for New Year's, offering firework launchers to help welcome 2015, and the celebratory chaos will be available through January 5.
At the time of this writing, the outlook for presents is good – a status page for Xbox Live is currently showing green lights for online play.
Update: The PlayStation Network has gone offline since this story was published. Recent activity from the Ask PlayStation Twitter account notes that an estimated revival time cannot be given, but adds that engineers are currently working on resolving the issue. We recommend keeping an eye on Ask PlayStation and also checking the related status page before making plans to play on PSN.

A-10 The thing that im confused about is that the snow looks AMAZING. like it looks like they didnt rush it at all and all theyre going to do is keep it for a couple of days and get rid of it for next year? Why not have an option in a private lobby if you want snow or not...
For some reason, I have a feeling that it just isn't possible on the 360 at least. Maybe on the One though? That would be cool.

The only point of people even liking the GTA 5 Christmas events is because of the snow which never did come back. So disappointed that I didn't get to see snow this year on GTA 5. Waited all year and then trolls taking down servers ruined it for me :(

I would love to have such an option in a private lobby, it'd be heaps of fun to just drift around in the snow and all.
