MW2-Rush This has been happening a lot lately! :/

this is because they are fixing the servers and other things for the big dashboard update, and for the beta testers (including me) will be getting it this month or early next, others will be getting it before the launch of xbox one :)

TurtleOrgans PC is better than console in litteraly every way possible

I personally like console gaming better than PC gaming because of the simplicity of it all. With consoles you don't really need to worry about Operating Systems, Runtime packages and error messages showing up all the time

TurtleOrgans Why is this happening like twice a month...

It's only been happening recently. In the past incidents such as this have been rare

For all of you comparing a PC to a console.... you're truly stupid, you can't compare a god damn PC to a console because,1. You can't upgrade it and take it apart adding more ram to it and stuff. 2. A PC was made for different purposes than a console. 3. You can't build a damn console! You can build a pc with the same specs but not a console..... so just stop with the whole PC > Console thing, it's truly idiotic.

I Think It's Because Of Somthing With The Beta Being Out The Are Testing Something, Or It Could Just Be The Are Updating The Servers.

dnasty239 No you can't

If you pay $500 for a PC it'll be way more powerful, don't talk about something that you don't understand.

Woobie One of the reasons I'm going to PC gaming come this fall.

So you're going to spend $1,000 dollars just because Xbox Live went down for a couple of hours?

you can get a PC that runs faster than an xbox for around $400 ($100 more than an xbox) plus games are sooo much cheaper on PC. PLUS you dont have to pay to game. where as xbox you have to pay for terrible service EVERY month.

gtfo, PC FTW!

No you can't
