There's just one problem. If you're gaming on PC, you're running Windows.

Your superiority complex is the reason I don't "wanna be" a PC gamer. This is more cost effective.

So please, shut up.

Telling people to "get over it and read a book" is layman terms for bendover and take it like a good bitch. Thats tantamount to ordering a $7 meal at McDonalds, and then the McDonalds employee hands you a only straw and tells "you thanks for your $7, now go read a book". Get the fuck outta here with that crock of shit.

I've been in outages like this at work and have seen the team put in hundreds of hours in a weekend trying to get it resolved, sometimes you're at the mercy of someone else though. Waiting for hardware, a hotfix, QA, etc.

I think Microsoft's biggest mishandling of this has been to change the status so many times, they should have just made a post stating that there will be issues throughout the holidays with no ETA.

To the users (on another thread) saying that Microsoft should have enough hardware to handle every single user in the world to login and play at the same time, the waste on an endeavor like that would be astronomical. The consumers at the end would pay those costs, one way or another.]]>Dec 30th 2007 7:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/Dec 30th 2007 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/

Here's a hint why sony's online thing isn't down; no one's using it.

XBL will get fixed and we'll find out what the problem was, and they'll probably kick out some points or a free month of service if enough of you whine and cry about it, but for now? why not play another game? Or get some sun? Maybe send an email, or God forbid, WRITE a letter?

Relax kids - XBL will be back when they're able to get it taken care of. And remember, they're losing MILLIONS in potential sales revenue while it's down. (That should make the sony-fan-boys a little happier)]]>Dec 30th 2007 7:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/Dec 30th 2007 7:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/Dec 30th 2007 7:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/
When you are late to pay your bill, you pay interest, thats what I want interest, I know we would all want some Microsoft points for the trouble, like they are losing customers more and more often, lots of people are moving away from PC and XBox to Sony or Apple, ext.

I know you guys are not satisfied but come on, we cannot move to a PS3, I have spent so much money on Microsoft, theres no way in turning back, hopefully they will have like a free game you can download like carcossone.]]>Dec 30th 2007 8:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/30/xbox-live-zune-marketplace-down-again-what-gives-microsoft/

It's not that this is a problem all of a sudden, Xbox live has been shoddy since before Christmas. It's annoying, and we feel Microsoft should provide a better explanation and customer service to everyone who PAYS for this.

If we were PS3 owners and had this problem, we'd have zero leverage, but we're paying for this.

How about it, Microsoft?]]>Dec 30th 2007 8:17PM
