    The diehard Xbox Live fans might have to find something else to do on June 16th. On his blog earlier today, Larry "Major Nelson" Hyrb posted that the online service will be offline for maintenance from 12:01 AM PST for up to 24 hours. As a result, Xbox LIVE and the 'My Xbox' section of Xbox.com will be unavailable, and the Xbox forums will be in read-only mode. Don't get too excited, this is just scheduled maintenance; no new features or enhancements will be added.

    Finally, I now have time to work on the great American novel. On second thought, I probably will just migrate to PlayStation Home and work on my running man. What about you? Hit the jump and let us know what you plan to do during Xbox Live's scheduled maintenance.

    Haha suckers, I'm on holiday in Germany anyway ;D
    No I joke, you don't all suck.

    To be honest, I haven't played on the xbox properly for at least 3 week now. My brother has been on if you've noticed me online. I guess they just want us to know because people like us die if we can't have an explanation of an event.

    Which is kind of sad, because many people will not know what to do...

    I think I'll be somewhere that's not home so I don't really care. If I am home, I'll just do something else.

    Maybe some kids can get off their lazy asses and get some exercise for once. Sucks if it rains that day though.

    Well, I didn't get a message about this on XBL. I wouldn't have known about this unless Grif told me. Shut yo trap foo.

    Eh, I suppose I'll be playing Bioshock. Again. I'm going to try to save all the little sisters this time. Even though the ending where they kill Fontaine is as scary as ****.

    I knew the Apocalypse was coming...











    Jokes aside, thanks for the heads up Grif. That's the last day of finals for me and I was looking forward to playing again. Whatever, I'll be on Wednesday. :)

    Even though this is like five days away, I have no idea what I'm even doing. Well, if I'm not doing any thing this day, this will actually give me time to finish working on a project that I've procrastinated for the longest time. With no ability to play with any one I will be able to focus on it 100% and hopefully get a lot done on it.

    I actually had no clue about this either, so thanks for the heads up Grif.
