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 can't compare the failure rate to network hacking. With the failure rate the ball was in MS court to fix or not fix it, if hackers get access to xbox live then microsoft would have lost control. If someone steals you're credit card are you just going to wait for a new one or are you going to tell the bank to cut it off in order to avoid any further loss? Microsoft is not going to leave an unsecure network open while creating a patch, thats crazy talk. The amount of money they'd lose trying to save face would be much worse than if they just took it down.

There is no way someone actaully believes what you just said.  Every company in the world with a website will bring it down if there is a breach to prevent hackers from gaining further control of the network and from stealing personal information.  It would hurt the company more to keep it up than to take it down so it would be stupid to do even if you hated your customers.

Now I see you have only 9 posts.  An alt? 

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?
