It appears that the new software update for Xbox Live has made it incredibly unstable… you would think that they would have tested this a little more thoroughly before installing it.
Live was down for slightly longer than planned yesterday and at this time of writing it is still bouncing around like an inebriated bunny.
Hopefully by the time you all get home it will be up and stable but for now don’t panic if it isn’t working for you.
It’s nothing wrong on your side and even though they haven’t said anything you can bet they are working on it.
Mind you if they don’t fix it for another couple of hours we may all be able to claim for some free stuff… all this pain and suffering you know.
Let’s hope this isn’t a sign of things to come with the new Live Experience…
