Xbox Live will close
We have been informed that Microsoft’s Xbox live service is to close Monday for around 4 hours (apparently from 9am to 1pm).

Many users of its Xbox Live service have been getting messages from the Console manufacturer, although this is just a little bit of downtime I wonder what the Xbox 360 users will feel about this.

If people are at work or not around then I guess they will not care, but for the gamers that want to go to Xbox live in the downtime, they will be very unhappy.

Microsoft has apparently refused to comment on what the maintenance is for, it could be an annual autumn update but who really knows but Microsoft.

One other rumor that I found very interesting is that there could be a new feature as a parental timer that allows adults pre-program a set amount of time their children can play on the Xbox 360.

    good things come to those who wait (but four hours is a long time, not really, lol)
