Hopefully it will! The last time something this happened it was out for about 2-3 hours and I think the issue started about an hour ago.

It's been down for at least the last three hours for me.

This usually happens every time there is a double XP weekend for Call of Duty.

This isn't making my "get 5 hours with 5 different games" XBL Rewards punchcard any easier...

*Update*
The amount of people that weren't able to get on is decreasing!
A sign of hope!!

Exactly what I thought. The "Always On" xbox wouldn't work right now. Geez, I sure hope you don't want to play Bioshock Infinite because if you did, that wouldn't work right now!

Chances of me buying an always on console? 0%.

lol

 

[bardockkun]

I Was able to go online about like an hour or so ago, haven't tried since, but I haven't had any problems today.

 

[n8rockerasu]

Even if you're able to get online, you probably can't send/receive messages right now. Live seems to be majorly ed up at the moment. I'm trying to figure out if chatting of any kind is even working. This si the reason an "always on" console can blow me. It's arrogance for these companies to act like their infrastructure is so perfect that these types of requirements are justified. I said the same thing with EA and their online pass. The audacity of expecting customers to pay an extra $5-10 for online play for servers that are screwed up 50% of the time is mind blowing. Make a better product and people will be happy to give you more money. Forcing them to is not the road to go down.

 

[dennisb407]

Yep no problem with messages, inviting to games..etc

 

[Mikestoke]

Seems to all be back up here in the UK too.

 

[Vulcan2422]

Still problems here. Won't let me connect to any parties or send messages.

 

[tresyn]

You can log all 20 hours with a single game if you like...

It was working fine a couple of hours ago, now it's all ed up again. Oh well no double xp for me in Max Payne.

 

[bfauble83]

Yeah, I tried opening the netflix app & it told me I wasn't a gold subscriber. My Gold doesn't expire until July.
