Various forums online have threads and threads of people reporting anything from connection freezes, slow downs, lock ups, broken TV connections, and so many other different numerical errors that, if all of them were strung together, could potentially measure all the way from Earth to the moon (and back).
No, but seriously though.
There are even reports of brickage – yes, the famed red ring of death is back. Some say it’s limited to modded consoles only (no surprise there) but other untainted units seem to be affected by the same problem too.
We’ve yet to hear any official response from Major Nelson or any of the Microsoft staff. Some say the slow downs are caused by the simple fact of surging traffic accessing XBL, but the other problems are still unaccounted for.
If you are experiencing any problems with the NXE update, you might want to contact customer service (good luuuuuck!) or check out the forums (see Via link below) to ask around if anyone’s getting the same problem as you.
