Since last night, there have been reports of XBOX Live service outages and related issues. If you’re experiencing problems connecting to your friends or favourite game, know that you’re not alone.
The issues have been reported on its service page and include problems with Netflix, as well as some new bugs that have popped up in the options relating to account creation, management and recovering.
The two major games which are experiencing problems also happen to be the device’s most popular releases: Call of Duty: Black Ops and Halo Reach.
Why these issues are popping up has yet to be determined. Hopefully Microsoft will speak about the outages soon, giving us an expected timetable on when things will return to normal. For now, perhaps take some time to finish off some single player games you’ve been putting off. It’s a good time to do so.
