Xbox_One This is the second time this has happened to microsoft the past month. they need to get there stuff together.

Its better than sony's down for a while due to hackers

That's in the past. Let it go man. At least users were reimbursed on PS for their time down. Xbox, being that we pay money for their service, shouldn't have these kinds of problems with people not being able to use the service they pay for in addition to not getting reimbursed for their money being spent.
Oh wow, you were off of Xbox Live for a little while so you want something from microsoft. They have millions of users going online all at once and they only have 1,500 servers. They said they're working on the issue what more do you want from them?
