Default Xbox Live Down on September 10 starting at 2:01 PDT

Quote:

Xbox Live will be going down for a service upgrade on September 10, 2007 starting at 2:01 PDT and lasting for approximatly 4 hours. I just recieved this message from Xbox Live on my 360. It was bound to happen since a huge rush of people will be hitting Halo 3 15 days after this upgrade.

I remember Xbox Live was brought to its knees after Halo 2 came out, and that was only when they had a couple million subscribers. Now there are 8 million subscribers and bound to be more once Halo 3 comes out. Definitely a good idea to upgrade the network in anticipation this time around.

Ya, they wouldn't want their gaming servers to crash because of this lol, that would be really bad for Microsoft, a bunch of angry Halo fans lol.
