MS lied about the failrate of the 360 in public statements I wouldn't be surprised if they were covering up a hack seeing how much revenue they get from live

Even if they pulled a sony and didn't tell anyone, there is noway they would keep xbox live up and running if a breach had occurred. That would just be crazy.

Sony did tell people... Someone is biased and if MS was covering it up taking the network down is the last thing they'd do 

Microsoft is not gonna allow hackers full access to their network just because they want to cover it up. If the hackers got in then there is a security hole and microsoft will take the network down to avoid further damage. It has nothing to do with bias, thats just what any company would do. (same thing that sony did).

MS took  like 5 years to completely and properly redesign the 360 to get rid of it's insanely high failrate so I sincerely doubt they'd shut down to fix their network especially since they get money from it, they'd proabably just try to patch it without taking it down until their schedualed maintainance (which isn't that far away I believe)

 

You see, now your just being a crazy fanboy. One thing has nothing to do with the other. Microsoft constantly improved the 360's motherboard to improve the failure rate before the Slim 360 was released. You make it sound as if they sat on their ass for 5 years before doing anything.

 

And secondly, are you aware that XBL did not get hacked at all? It was some 3'rd party site and Lulzsec just told people to try their luck to see if they matched those of XBL.

Constantly but extrmely slowly and most of the changes were to reduce cost more then fix the failrate and I'm not believing MSes word for a second they lied to us before they'll lie again so unless you have other evidence that live wasn't hacked  let me know, and isn't all the other sites they put passwords for intergreated in xbl?

Proof is in the thread itself.  A third party side got hacked not XBL.  Paypal is also affected.

Correction a third party got hacked not PAYPAL, nothing in there says live  wasn't hacked, xbl could be the third party, they just started including paypal
