The Ashes

Xbox Live was down once again today, after a few weeks ago another outage upset a lot of users. Netflix was down too, however, the guys at the Xbox Live support announced that all Xbox Live services are now up and running. Although the cause of the outage is unclear, the Xbox Live status is OK after it was down today. Microsoft is probably preparing for the Xbox Live Update that will take place on August 11 in order to bring tons of new features that will improve your Xbox Live experience.

Xbox Live down today is nothing unusual to see. I’ve seen it many times, and I expect to see it once again soon, even before August 11 when the update will take place. Xbox Live down August 6 will be replaced with Xbox Live down August 11 as people are usually unprepared. I just don’t get it: if you are a Xbox Live user why don’t check the news section once in a while? Microsoft always announces when a routine maintenance or an update will take place.

For more information about the outage check out the Xbox Live status here, and for more info about the Xbox Live Update August 11 here.
