At 8:15PM PST, xbox live went down officially for all users using the new dashboard (previewing it).
Talking about another big “oops” for Microsoft. Within minutes there were dozens of posts/topics about it on xbox.com’s forums in regards to the outage. Based on everyone’s findings…only those using the new preview were affected (friends & neighbors using the old dashboard are/were still online playing perfectly fine.
In fact so many people accessed the xbox website, it has brought to entire site to a slow crawl (or for some people, timing out).
You go Microsoft!
