After the embarrassing fiasco that was Xbox Live Holiday '07 that resulted in a Undertow apology gift, Microsoft is committed to keeping Xbox Live up and running through the holidays without any problems."We are well prepared for the type of growth we expect this holiday," Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg told Kotaku in a recent interview, explaining "we've built a lot of infrastructure, a lot of behind the curtain no one sees." We're also informed that Microsoft will have additional Live staff on the job (probably getting paid double time) who'll be ready to jump in if problems surface. "Knock on wood we will hopefully not have any issues," ... believe us, we're knocking.
