Microsoft apologizes for Xbox360 cloud save issue

4.5
The Xbox Live service experienced some hiccups recently with its cloud save feature and now Microsoft is making amends with a free month of Xbox Live.

Microsoft notes it's automatically applying a one-month extension to impacted customers. There is no need to call support if you were affected by the outage. Xbox's Major Nelson posts that the company knows who couldn't reach the cloud and will handle it on their end.

Late last week Xbox Live customers reported outages and other issues, along with the cloud save file problem, which would bounce back error "0x807b0198" when trying to load a file.

phlegm IDK why people don't just use USB's, much easier than cloud.

Either work, but if you're cheap like me you prefer the free already provided option.
I don't have a USB, I went swimming with it along time ago with my phone..

I use a USB for some of my things, then i just use the hard drive in the Xbox for the rest of my things.


Exactly. Cloud is useless, USB is way easier.

Efficient I've never used cloud storage, should I?

I myself advise you do.
If you mess up one of your saves on your HDD you can just copy it back onto your HDD from the Cloud Storage.
It has helped me a great deal.


That seems very helpful, I've been meaning to use Cloud but haven't yet.
