That Xbox Live in the past 3 months has screwed up a lot? Before Autumn, Xbox Live was working flawlessly. It never really screwed up.

Before Halo 3 came out there was a "huge" server check which was supposed to keep Xbox Live from going down when Halo 3 came out. When it finally did come out, the servers crashed within a couple of hours. I couldn't log in for 6 hours straight.

When CoD4 came out, there were tons of problems with matching players. The Live servers or the CoD4 servers(don't know which ones were at fault here) either disconnected players randomly or keeping them in the lobby for hours.

The big Fall Update was also a huge disaster. Everyone's dashboards wouldn't work properly and many people were without Live for 24 hours. I couldn't log on for about 3 hours. The Fall Update wasn't worth implementing considering how many problems it caused. Half the problems still aren't fixed. Tons of bugs left to work out.

These past 4 days, Xbox Live has completely screwed everyone over. CoD4 isn't matching players correctly and neither is Halo 3. It now takes 2 times the time it took to find matches before. Sad thing is, nothing is being done about this crap.

I sure hope to god that we are not paying $50+tax a year for this crap. Xbox Live has gone down for maintenance 5-7 times these last 3 months and I'm just sick of it.

yes i've noticed this. i just thought it had something to do with my new internet... at least the part about the dashboard becoming slow as hell...
i agree, we shouldn't be paying top dollar for half-speed XBL - if that is truly the case.

From what I've heard, everything has been acting up ever since the last update. I haven't had a 360 since October, but I remember all the problems when Halo 3 first came out. It sucked. And I agree, for what we pay to get on live, I think it should be top notch, which it is, there's just a few problems here and there. I'm sure Microsoft will fix it all soon.

Yeah this crap is so annoying. What is the point of that stupid dashboard load ? it takes ages and crashes your 360 most of the time.

I understand having problems here and there, but this isn't the case. Problems have been recurring a couple of days before the Halo 3 launch. Ever since then, they have been escalating.

See, that I wouldn't know, because I sold my 360 about a week after the Halo 3 launch.

Yes, Xbox Live is having some problems and it seems as if the majority of us are feeling it.

This will be the FOURTH Xbox Live problem thread that I've Locked up today.
