To date..... (From my time Eastern Time) The xbox live server has been off for 15 hours and 42 mins........

And just like anything computer related with software/hardware. You may have to do diagnostic to check everything is working smoothly.

Of course thats after there down installing what they have to do.

They say up to 24 hours. But thats just an estimation of course. Its possible something can delay the time. Depending on what they had to do, putting it together could take no longer then a couple of hours. When it comes to a big community online services. When maintenance is done its needed for them to have it perfect or at least close. Which is why it takes up to a day.

With all the things xbox is coming with a day won't kill you :P

That is true, one day shouldn't kill anyone, but man oh man, left4dead is so addicting. Its literally tearing me up in the inside right now I can't get a left4dead game in right now lol. Also just found out like 10 minutes ago that whitill wings is obtainable now, so wanted to hop on PSU to see whats up with that.

Either way... Xbox will come back up when it comes back up. No sense in starting raging flame wars over something that isn't particularly the fault of anyone on this forum.

And really, anyone who says for sure when the servers are coming up needs to be slapped.

Microsoft maybe slightly more reliable than Sega but still... they'll be up when theyre up, people.

>< idk if you was reffering to me but all i was saying was that it would be less then 24 hours,24 hours exactly or more.

Just showgin the multiple possibilities.

I'm just watching TV,online for the time being. Might go out somewhere later :P


Oh for those who are curious (Eastern Time) Xbox Live has been off 17 hours now :P

Well I've had Phantasy Star 2 to mess around on while the servers have been down. Suprised about how much I like it!

It's about five minutes past one in the morning here, and the servers still aren't up. I seriously hope their up for tomorrow morning, at least 7am!

I've given up jamming away on Guitar Hero 3 playing Helicopter. Sat in front of Tv switching between pokerstars.com, rugby and road wars with a tube of texas bbq sauce pringles haha. Someone check this poker out, this dude just won with a two pair, so lucky.

Yeah. I dont remember the last time Microsoft pulled a 4 week account rapefest and ignored the entire playerbase.

lol, god no I wasn't referring to anyone in particular. I'm just saying that if the servers come back on after 24 hours exactly... I will be flabbergasted. I figure they'll come up early or come up late. Either way, no one can tell and should not speculate on it.

Either way, I'm sure people can find other things to do than wonder about the xbox live servers... like.. make dinner.. clean something.. wonder why their dog smells like a hamster instead of a dog... make stupid responses on Pso-world... play Left4Dead... workout.. and...review micro economics homework to make sure its good shite. All things I've done.. let me assure you, they will keep you occupied for hours.

Oh yes... and try and figure out which 2010 MMO will get me out of PSU.. (Diablo 3 or Final Fantasy XIV Online) Hmm...the choices, the choices...

This basically solves everyone's thoughts about this

A lot of questions around why 24 hours? That is a great question, and one I get asked in a lot of forums, even at review time J In truth, that is an important area for us in terms of improvement, and the maintenance we are doing today takes us a number of steps down the path to being able to do this more efficiently in the future. Xbox LIVE is a complex, robust machine, and the business has grown so quickly over its young existence – the prioritization of what to work on in terms of stuff that makes the service more fun vs. stuff that keeps it running is always difficult at best. We have a super exciting year ahead with a whole bunch of cool stuff coming that will make us users even more happy, while feeding our friendly machine at the same time.

look to ebay plz

I bought my 360 refurbished (controller, HD av component cables, wireless controller, 20gig harddrive, pretty much perfect condition) for $162. no problems yet.

And if not, you could always get an Ebay repair job done? They run you like $20 and the people who give them oddly enough have in the high 90% feedback range.
