7 Comments
Microsoft's Xbox Live service went offline Monday, promising: "we'll be back soon with a whole new look and amazing new features." During a 24-hour period, the service will be upgraded with features aimed at Xbox 360 users, which will become available after the launch of the console on November 22.
New features to be added include an Xbox Live Marketplace, as well as a ranking system where gamers will be able to see their score in games compared with other Xbox Live users. Gamer information will also be integrated into other MSN properties, such as the company's Spaces blogging tool.
