Xbox Live Coming Down on Tuesday... I Wonder Why?

"Between 8am and 10pm you won't be able to play against your friends over Xbox live.
However this downtime is not a sign that there will be a dashboard update as Major Nelson has stated on his blog that the reason for the downtime is so microsoft can do some "back end" work which was supposed to take place a few months ago."

LOL! Yeah right, more like patching up the holes the hackers left you. 

I think everyone will agree with me when I say this - a day of not being able to play online is a hell of a lot better than having your account hacked and your hard earned funds used Live points.

Yes lose customers by telling them hackers have taken over. That's a great idea :roll:. Obviously they cover it up to keep people to their service and then fix the problem in one day. Man you are thick KeyWii.

Who knows really. The "back end" work Nelson spoke of could have even been stricter controls on account access. They could have even seen this coming and are trying to rectify it now - at a time too late unfortunately.

I can't believe this is getting so much attention. MS has had downtime scheduled every few months scheduled for XBL since it was in existence. Puckhog04

I wonder if KeyWii remembers it because for some reason he ran out of that thread, one which he started...wonder why

So KeyWii you said that in your blog, why can't you debate us now about the thread in which you made up a lie and tried to sell it off as a fact? I think you should apoligize and admit you were wrong and all of us shall move on like adults...can you do that?

Microsoft has been down before for general maitenance. Gamespot also goes down for maitenance. OMG Gamespot's a conspiracy too! Run to the hills!

 Better than having your servers permanently shut down.   UHmmmm MGS3 LMAO!

You seriously try way to hard for ownage...especially when most of the time it's self-ownage not to forget how your forgeting about all the bad news that's happened to ps3 (DMC4, Ace Combat 6, launch disaster, Motorflop, etc, etc, etc, etc) so instead your trying to cover it and try to make people forget about it with this and act this this is much worse. And I seriously doubt xbl was hacked have you never heard of people giving away account info? And if it's true that **** are hacking into xbl it's really not that big of deal xbl gets hacked for the first time in about year and your thinking it's the biggest ownage ever when really what's happened to the ps3 is about 5 times as much. Desperate attemp.
