Xbox Live to be down for 'quick' maintenance [update]

15 mins. Oh God. What the hell are we going to do.

5:00-5:15 is like prime time for gaming, however will we make it?

All the money we pay for a subscription... this is outrageous

I'd like to know why its going down..are they fixing something/adding something?

The big question is whether or not the maintenance will actually be 15 minutes or not.

lets just hope its not out for 12+ hours right?

Heh, I couldn't care less. I have Prince of Persia, Fallout 3, Tales of Vesperia, Farcry 2 and Mirror's Edge single player to enjoy.

Fair warning to everyone. The Resident Evil 5 Demo is up in Japan. Major Nelson posted about it.

xbox.com still isnt working for me :(

we ought to get a free game for this (remember Undertow?)

i wasnt looking at the time but i did lose my connection this morning.. granted i didnt try until 7 but everything was back up and running for me by then and im having no (new) problems..

Last night (9pm EST) I was chronically getting disconnected from Live. I hope that this was (if not the cause) a solution for that problem.

Anyone else get that? Either sitting in the dash or playing Fallout 3, I'd randomly (5-15min intervals) get "Disconnected from Xbox Live" messages.

I have had so many problems lately with some things with the NXE. I hope that this fixes them. My friends list takes about 10 seconds to populate the avatars....and I literally have 8 friends. I keep it to strictly family. (I can never find mature gamers it seems) Also going into menus to read anything like game details or so forth takes at least 30 seconds to load. Plus some games will not do updates when they need too.
I loved car combat games so I was the first to buy Vigilante 8...but my biggest complaint is how few maps there was. So when the DLC came out I downloaded it. But the game did no update and I have the new DLC but I can not preview the cars and it has messed up the sound horribly on my xbox while playing it...and the stunt track does not load right at all. It loads the rings of fire, but all the hills and such are not there. They are invisible, I can run into them, but they are not visible. And I think it is because the game did no update when I bought the DLC. I really hope all the small problems are worked out soon with the NXE because I am a huge fan of the new look.
Also if you are a mature gamer with games such as GOW2 and Left 4 Dead send me a friend request...I need some people who buys new games as much as me. None of my friends have my favorite games. My gamertag is the same as my forums name.
