In case you had some ideas of playing Halo, Left 4 Dead, Gears of War, Call of Duty, or whatever it is you’re playing now on your Xbox 360, don’t forget that Xbox Live will be down tomorrow, possibly all day.
Microsoft is doing some maintenance and upkeep on their servers to prepare for all the new shit they announced at E3 (Facebook, Twitter, Last.Fm, vibrator support with streaming porn). Live will be going down at midnight tonight PT (that’s 3am ET) and could be down for up to 24 hours. It sucks that it goes down the day Ghostbusters is getting released, because it’s pretty fun online (check back for our review tomorrow).
Don’t worry, it’s not just you. Ever since Club Nintendo open the gates to North America there have been problems. The inability to log in to the site coupled with surveys randomly logging users out, it’s no wonder they have taken the site down for maintenance.
It’s probably best that the site is down, at least for now. Imagine all of those lucky gamers receiving Wii Fit this holiday season trying to log in and get their gold coins to no avail. Nintendo’s support would be flooded with complaints galore! Hopefully the bugs will be worked out by sometime next year and we can get back to registering games. In the meantime go play the games, it’s more entertaining than registering them, trust me.
