Microsoft has never been on time with maintenance. They always go longer than they say. In this case, they’re at the 18 hour mark already. Who knows when it’ll be back up…

I found a link to a listing of earthquakes and tsunamis…
i found the one about 1964 in Anchorage…
117 died..
just because it is a real fact doesnt make it any less possible that it could be something for Halo 3. although i doubt that they would need to take servers off for 14 hours to add in Halo 3… they dont do this every time they add another hot new multiplayer to the system…
not that Halo 3 is anything like any other game…

Prepping the servers for Halo 3 beta maybe? The article about it on xbox.com did give various hints about it. Like this for example:

“1964: A 9.2 magnitude earthquake hit 80 miles east of Anchorage, Alaska, killing 117 and producing a 50-foot tsunami that traveled over 8,000 miles.”

I did a search about that, no where could I find “117″ about it.

Plus at the end, they do urge you to check out bungie.net.

[...] of credit cards from the system. Hopefully that’s something that gets taken care of in the Xbox Live downtime coming up soon. And hopefully they get some people at Xbox Support who have any idea what [...]

I actually got caught by the server “maintenance” “wink wink” last night. I was playing PSU until about 1:30 AM NY time last night and got the scrolling message across the screen letting all PSU users know that the servers would be closing in 30 minutes. Actually was kind of cool that they gave us the heads up and just didnt shut the game down during mid run. I hope this maintenance will fix that MS point rumor going around, although I am sure it is just a coincidence. LOL
