Oh well...pretty much not an apology, but more of a bragging message. Either way, they are giving everyone a free arcade game. It is probably a ****** one, so don't get your hopes up.
It will probally be that or the best selling one based on there records so the don't lose that much money. They should find a way to make it so we get to pick what game it is, have a coupon code (same for everyone) that can be used only once on each gamertag.

Maybe this will help bring Writer in from wanting to jump off the ledge... I read this article at work today...

"If you tried to curl up on the couch with a few Xbox 360 games over the holiday season, your day likely ended more in frustration than relaxation and excitement. The system was experiencing problems during the last week in December, resulting in many players who couldn't log online to the Live service for multi-player game play. However, Microsoft has been quick to appease its upset game-geeks by reportedly offering a free game download to all Xbox Live subscribers around the world, valued anywhere from $5 to $20.

Further details will be available in the coming weeks.

Xbox Live General Manager Marc Whitten attributes the connectivity issues to a large number of new users trying to get online at the same time. I can believe it, given that video games, and likely Xbox Live service subscriptions, were hot gift items this year. What do you do after opening presents and stuffing your face with turkey? Kick back with some video games! Nevertheless, players I know were confused: why were routers, Internet connections, and PCs working, yet connection to Xbox Live wasn't?

I have to commend Microsoft on its quick response to the issue, and fully admitting its disappointment in having inconvenienced its customers. As for the upset gamers, I say as long as you didn't see a blue screen of console death, take the free game that's being offered and appreciate that these things can and will happen."

Good to see that you still look at the glass as being half empty...
