"As many of you well know, Xbox Live has been having issues on and off lately, and Microsoft is not allowed to discuss them anymore because some intelligent folk decided to sue them. Great. If you're like me, that means that getting online lately has been hard, if not somewhere between unlikely and impossible. But there is an easy solution, so long as you were able to get online already."
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
What the hell is this tool talking about? Live hasn't had any problems since Christmas. He needs to get a new ISP.
i know 14 people with 360's and none of them have had any issues since christmas
this story is clearly aimed at people who do not have a clue about networking.
Yeah my Xbox Live has been having issues for the past few days...I was really annoyed and went to all the forums and complained about it....than I realized my modem was off. :p
What an 'empty' article. If you want to say something useful regarding optimizing Internet connectivity from Xboxs, etc.. discuss Router settings, UPnP, Ports, etc that, if set incorrectly, can limit visibility and connectivity to other players.
Describe the impact of splitters and signal degradation by putting your Cable modem behind them.
I wouldn't call this article optimizing your internet connection. The title is misleading... I was expecting some tuning or something. Instead I goT HOW DO YOU SETUP STATIC IP WHILE MESSING UP YOUR DYNAMIC IP SETTINGS.
When you plug a computer into the ethernet port most likely it is set for DHCP. This means that the address you receive is dynamically allocated. So if you leave your Xbox 360 turned off for a week and turn it on, that ip address might have been assigned to a different device. Suddenly you get ip conflicts that will potentially slow your connection down to a crawl or not work at all.
Nothing is worse than misleading information disguised as a great suggestion! This is one of them.
