You fire up your Xbox 360. Set yourself comfortable in a chair. Scroll down the dashboard menu and select your copy of (insert your online shooter of choice here) and... wait... what the?! XBOX LIVE ISN'T WORKING!Oh, yeah! Remember kids, Xbox Live is down all day today until early tomorrow. The 24-hour downtime on Xbox Live will help prepare for the New Xbox Experience. The NXE will completely change the Xbox 360 dashboard you know and love into something Microsoft believes will be much cleaner and appealing to a wider audience.
So the new dashboard is totally coming out tomorrow, right? Sorry. This downtime is just prep. No new features are expected when the Xbox Live service returns. What will you be playing for the next day?

My embedded gamertag is not working either. I think in the past during down times it still would. Oh well. I am at school all day anyways.

xbox.com does not work in any capacity any more. They said it would. It did earlier but not now. Oh well. Hopefully they make it nicer or something. I guess at least not screw it up.

Why, I'll be playing Frontlines: Fuel of War of course. The most underrated game of 2008.

I'll second that. Very under-rated indeed.
