Xbox LIVE Service Alert Issued

4.4
A new year begins, and we have encountered our first issue with an online gaming service: Xbox LIVE has entered a ‘service alert’ status. Thankfully, it doesn’t appear to be a serious outage, and at present is limited to some of the recently re-launched ‘apps’ for the Xbox 360 console.



Currently confirmed to be encountering issues are two of the original television delivery apps, both recently updated to offer Kinect compatibility. Both Sky Player and LoveFilm apps are encountering difficulties throughout Europe, and news sites have received reports that some North American users are also encountering similar issues with their equivalent apps.


Researching the issue, news sites have received the following statement from Microsoft Studios: “We are aware of the problem and are working to resolve the issue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience [sic]”

I-want-gold-to-troll lol, for a moment there, i thought it was a real crisis.


You and me both man. When I actually read the article I was like "Oh, lol, ok"


Yeah the use of the word 'Alert' makes it sound bad. When actually no one gives a crap. Can't watch TV on your Xbox?? Watch TV on your TV then... -_-
lol for a second i thought the PS3 players were going to have something to make fun of us for
