I just noticed that I can't view friend's achievements anymore through xbox.com.. the compare link is gone and clicking through shows my own. Was this removed on purpose? Seems odd that achievements are private now..

oh look at some of the comments from the douchebags that said this maintenance has nothing to do with the dashboard when the dashboard freezes for a few seconds when looking in parties and backing out?

and i dare someone say its my 360 when its not since my sh*t is 2 days old. stop riding microsoft's stick so much and you wouldn't be so much as drones, sucking up to every announcement they make.

Install the Adblock Plus addon for Firefox and you won't have to worry about advertisements/banners again.

hey Mr e,i know this may be a problem to be fixed for another day,but on xbox.com,my xbox page how come we can only compare games with the first 3 friends who's avatars are showing when they are online?

like when we look at a friend on our list from 'xbox.com>>my xbox page>>friends' who hasn't been online for 2 days,we can't compare games...how come?,there is no option,only on those who's avatars are showing

Is anyone else experiencing their xbox freeze on the dashboard at random times? The xbox has not fully crashed as I could still talk in party chat to some friends but the xbox is unresponsive to the joypad and wont do anything until i switch it off. I thought it might be the xbox playing up, but my brother and a friend had the exact same problem earlier on.

i totally agree with kurosawasghost.

its just bad business not responding to a problem like this....all we get is the generic xbox.com message....

would it be so hard to say "hey guys we had some hiccups and are working on it right now" you know, a little nod to the people that use and buy their product.

An update would be nice, but usually we the community get yelled at for not being patient, etc...which is total b.s. but anyway, I just figured an update would not kill them but i guess it would since this has gone on all day now.

Is anyone else having disk read issues. After the update finished this morning I tried to download the DLC code for Ghostbusters to have it say invalid code which it still does, and then tired to play the game again only to have it not even read the disk. I tried a DVD and a music CD aswell and nothing works at all. Just wondering if I was alone in this.

Microsoft has made no comment on this problem, but they have been deleting comments from the Xbox Live Operations blog that used the name "Xbox Live Server Maintenance Team"

Strange they have time to remove posts but not make their own.
