That is impossible people here swear to me xbl never gets down. And here I tough they would complain about MS not using the fees from 40M users to improve servers and that it is really simple to estimate server load and downtime is unnaceptable.
some of those guys are here and were on DC sluggfest but aren't bashing ms. Sweet double Standard, I bet today ocasional downtime don't matter (as it really don't) and is even good for customer. But yesterday it was the devil.
And yes we know psn have more issues, but now you can also get down from the high horse.
Anyway the problem will be sorted quickly. Will psn suffer more? Quite possibly.

...except that's not true at all. There's been plenty of threads that people have made talking about Xbox Live being down, people posted them here. If you read the thread before posting a reply that seems entirely geared toward starting a flame war, you'd probably see that.

Be carefull towards accusation. I read the thread, and some usual suspects are here saying "it never takes long" and it isn't worth discussing.

In all fairness, at least in my experience with XBL it usually doesn't take too long for issues to be sorted out. Not trying to say it still doesn't suck for a paid service to be experiencing downtime, but that's just my own perspective of using XBL. I just tend to dislike when people generalize across fanbases, when there's most likely a good amount of people who don't act like what you're describing.
