No problem here, I've actually have mine idle on the dashboard after playing lumines. But, i didn't experience any problems yet.

Semi offtopic; the new feature on Xbox.com is that you can add MS points to your account via the site now. It's still not up for me but it was up for someone else. Here's a screenie:

I can get on xbox.com, but they won't let you get to the page where you can sign in.

Also, I powered up my 360 before work this morning, and now my userinterface seems to move slower and all the advertisements no longer come up on any of my blades. Weird???8)7

Seriously, the ability to buy points over the web? That's IT? That's why we were down for a day? Geez, I was hoping for HD Movie downloads or virtual hooker software or SOMETHING. I mean, come on!

But seriously, does anyone know if adding points over the web is the only new feature? The xbox.com site says featureS- as in plural. However they don't have any news about the updates. Anyone??

Back ontopic, Major's site is getting hammered to death with pure shit, to be honest. People claiming that Live is "fucking crap, if they can't keep the servers running 24/7, I want a refund of my less than one pence I spent on Live today." Some even claiming the world will end. Comments have been disabled.

My Xbox Live is working fine.

I mean, at first I couldn't download anything from teh Xbox Live Marketplace. But, that was 15 minutes after teh maintenance ended. When I woke up that morning XBOX LIVE was working perfectly. I am pretty sure that Microsoft will fix what ever problems that people claim to be having.

And if idiots are saying they want their money back for the last 3 days, they should know they are getting... 1.7 cents back. That's not even 2 cents.

To be fair, it's ofcourse ridiculous that the service was down for *far* more than 24 hours, and the site for over 48 hours, when 24 hours downtime was announced.

On the other hand, ICT is not an exact science, and shit happens. As long as it doesn't go the same way next time I don't see the problem. And knowing Microsoft I expect they'll happily extend Live Gold subs with a day for the downtime.

Nearly all of my games (barring arcade) have had upgrades to them. Im beginning to wonder if maybe its a 1080 res upgrade to each game individually which can't be activated until the dash update....

Or just tons of bug fixes - shame for those without 'Live'

I think it must be more to add a few more features to the game because when I bought dead or alive it did it too because of some 2 accounts bug and to add more stuff I think.

A blade that cuts both sides. Not connecting a 360 to Live is backwards in these enlightened connected days... but publishers and developers are counting on it too hard.
