So when do we get our free ARCADE game from Microsoft?

Xbox live down for 24 hours, doesn't work well afterwards, and my Ghostbusters preorder code not working. Last time they gave us Undertow, I was thinking maybe Sam & Max or Magic: The Gathering for a free title. It would be nice for M$ to compensate.

Maybe YOU should.

Deal with it.

How can anyone be bothered by XBL being down for 24hours? You didn't die without is so quit complaining.. a refund is less then $1 anyway.

It's literally 14 cents. LOL

hahaha. I love it when it comes back to bite people....a second time.

asking for something in return, from microsift for them trying to make your time with an xbox better and giving you alot of FREE new features, i cant believe you want something for free from Xbox for live being down for 1 day, they also send message to everyone with live to tell them it well be down so it is not like you dont know it well be down.

They won't give us anything and we really don't need anything either. We get one free game because Live was messy during Christmas and now every time the service acts weird you want something.

I don't really see anyone complaining here, but still, they told you week ahead of time that it would be down and this wasn't going down because it was buggy... it was going down because they needed to add patches or something that would help with the summer releases that are coming out for Xbox Live. I appreciate it more than wanting them to give me something free in return.

and... yeah... they gave this crappy Undertow game from XBL whenever it went down for a few days. I forget when, but I remember playing it for like ten minutes and then never looking at it again. I think it was sometime really early last year.

[QUOTE="Darkslayer16"]

[QUOTE="BaconB1ts123"] What does that have to do with going extended amounts of time with buggy service?? You don't seem to understand the wording. that is ok I forgive you.BaconB1ts123

then why even bother to mention it or bring it up. the only time they gave a game because of poor service was during and after christmas 2007 through jan 2008.im pretty sure the other free games were given because of promos and whatnot butlike i said they compensated us for the problems that they didnt see comming and were certainly an incovenience for us and them. THIS, may be an inconvenience to you but an outage because of maintenance or upgrading the service does not give you the right to a free game and those people expecting one should stop before you further dissapoint yourself. Redwa is most definatly spot on with his quote. this thread was funny at first until i realized how serious some of you were with your expectation of a free game for this scheduled outage.....

EDIT: unless you were talking about the EA incident and thservice being down/buggy for more than a day in two seperate instances i wouldnt have brought this up. if in fact thats what youre referring to then sorry for the rant....but you still dont deserve a free game for this outage.

BAAMMMMM .... HEADSHOT......

Oh I wasn't the one asking for a free game. I just said I wouldn't complain if they did. The part about the quote was Redwa saying it was in the end users agreement and then posting the Terms of Use as well as quoting a part on them restricting your access if you break them. Just ignore it it has nothing to do with the topic. sounds like I did not miss out on much with Undertow.

I would like some compensation but it probably won't happen.

It was 2007 and they gave us Undertow.

So much for a friendly reponse

I was just hoping that Microsoft clumsy nature of doing things can be taken advantage of.

Eula, TOS it's all the same really heh. And they are Broad terms for a reason. It's for legal reasons. You can cover a broad spectrum of things by vaguely wording things. Anywho....carry on!

I think it is only warranted if it continues on. They have to do maintenance and sometimes it will still need to be smoothed out. I wouldn't turn down a free game but I don't expect it either. BaconB1ts123

Why would they give compensation?

I can understand if it went down unexpectedly, but they told us they're doing maintenance for upcoming updates. We already are getting a free avatar racing game along with free 1 vs 100! People are so greedy, not saying microsoft isnt but seriously? One day and you want a free game? Come on now!

Xbox live down for 24 hours, doesn't work well afterwards, and my Ghostbusters preorder code not working. Last time they gave us Undertow, I was thinking maybe Sam & Max or Magic: The Gathering for a free title. It would be nice for M$ to compensate.

We aren't getting a free game dude, relax. It was down for 24 hours and is not a huge deal. They are working on the problem so sit tight and be patient.

You know Microsoft will never give you anything for free. It took them almost 4 years to admit that the Xbox360 has hardware failure problems and sometimes scratches games.

I don't believe it also
