Xbox Live Maintenance - Half Way Mark
Many of you are twiddling your thumbs right now as the scheduled maintenance for Xbox.com and Xbox Live has begun. You’re almost to the finish line though! Between 6-7 hours from now, you’ll have your fix as the services should return then.
What do we do in the meantime?
Play offline. It does still exist ya know. Or if you didn’t get a chance to catch a few of Trixie’s recommendations, allow me to give you a few of my own U360 suggestions.
-Read my thoughts on Bullet Witch, Crackdown, 300 or glance at how I review games
-Enjoy the OXM interview and listen in on what the plans are for the magazine
-Listen in on Xbox 360 Elite rumors in Episode #30
-Catch up with friends in the U360 community message boards
-Learn more about Xbox Live maintenance and Xbox Live operations, with e’s Showcase
These are just a few additional things you can do while the maintenance is being done.
*edit - the maintenance is complete. Xbox Live and Xbox.com are back online.

“Wow…over 100 people are adding me as a friend…you really DO want to know what’s up with Live.”
No, really? Gee, we only pay for the service, some games are unplayable without it, and it’s well past the time it was supposed to be up…

yeah i’m gonna start promoting that area soon…so you get a head start
and Xbox Live is a monster to bring back up…but it will be back within the hour now.

UH oh people are getting pretty upset, it is pretty bad for this to happen a second time though
especially after all that talk from E last time about all they’ve done to prevent this in the future. Personally, it doesn’t bother me as much as long as it’s back up by tomorrow but I can defintely understand others frustrations.
Also Crazzytzar and | Echo 360 | I’m the same about wanting back onto the forums.
March 27th, 2007 at 6:48 pm
Yeah, getting on the forums would be great right about now.
Deacon, where you getting this info that Major doesn’t even have?
March 27th, 2007 at 6:49 pm
