This one is pretty annoying really, Xbox Live is down again which is a pain in the butt really considering there was a week of frustration when it was down; there was even a lawsuit because of this problem as you may well know.
The official Xbox.com site says that users may experience problems performing transactions dependent on Windows Live ID availability including but not limited to Xbox 360 account creation plus renewal and recovery and even logging into or creating Windows Live ID accounts. They said “We are aware of the issue and actively working toward a resolution. We apologize for any inconvenience”.
A new update from XBL says that Arcade seems to be working well even multiplayer but some games for example Call of Duty 4 are still down, apparently as of today Xbox Live is back up and running. So some games are fine and some are not.
I will personally check this later. Please let us know if you are still having problems and how much this is frustrating you?

Hi if this is what we have to suffer for having a 360,,it IS heartbreaking and very cost-effective, but I still love my 360 and will NOT use anything else,, Sony be hanged..BUT, I would like to know if MS would consider, not just giving us a “free XBLA game” but how about a year free Xboxlive,, trust me, Bill can afford it, especially as he called this issue with the outage a “Hiccup” quote/unquote >>> Any ideas guys >> HOW ABOUT IT BILL ???????
I WOULD HAVE RESPECT IF MY SHIT I PAID FOR WORKED… IF YOU WERE ON YOUR 3RD XBOX BECAUSE OF THE “RING OF DEATH” AND NOW YOUR SERVICE IS DOWN… YOU WOULD BE PISSED TOO, DONT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN. IF IT WERE A FREE SERVICE YOU WOULDNT SEE MY NAME ON HERE, BUT ITS NOT FREE, SO I THINK I HAVE A RIGHT TO BE UPSET ABOUT A 2 WEEK “HICCUP” AND DONT THINK THEY DIDNT KNOW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN… THEY KNEW… IF SALES STARTING BOOMING IN OCTOBER, THEN THEY (MS AND BILL GATES) HAD TWO MONTHS TO GET PREPARED… IF THEY DID THEIR JOBS THIS SHOULDNT HAVE HAPPENED… LAST THOUGHT… $7 A MONTH + 10 MILLION USERS = $70 MILLION A MONTH, NOW TELL ME WHY THEY CANT GET IT FIXED?
iv been trying to play cod4… and its just not working. iv had problems from not finding games, to getting friends kicked out of games and cant invite them back in untill i start a new party. MY mic didnt work one day and just about everygame i play is extremely laggy or i get disconnected… its extremely frustrating… iv actually quit playing untill its fixed…
Live has been giving problem since the fall update all my friends started complaining then…..christmas just made it worse now theyve “worked” on it and patched so it almost works….i think they have more problems than they are admitting…its now 9:56PM January 11th 2008 and it took me 7 login attempts and 20 mins to even get the dashboard to pop up.this is getting ridiculous. You guys say PSN sux but what would happen if this new “home” for the PSN starts up and catches on and is still free would that light a fire under “major nelson’s” ass???
with all do respect they should have this problem fixed by now or atleast pull the fall update down and re-deploy the dashboard without it i bet that would solve 100% of the problems
My son as been playing call of duty 4 for four month now but he did an update a month ago. Since then he keeps loosing his points he as earned playing the game.
