Reminder: Xbox Live down starting at midnight
by GameWit
If you’ve got an Xbox 360, get ready for a day of offline play. Microsoft is taking Xbox Live down, starting at midnight Tuesday, for maintenance. While no new features will be added in the update, Microsoft’s Larry Hyrb, aka Major Nelson, says that the work is being done to prepare for some of the services announced at E3.
I’ll be spending the downtime playing “inFAMOUS” on the PlayStation 3. If the only console you own is an Xbox 360, any achievements you earn offline will still count. (They’ll just be updated next time you log online.) Consider today an opportunity to play a single-player game like “Fallout 3,” “Fable II,” “Assassin’s Creed” or, my favorite, “Dead Rising.”
