Microsoft to Compensate Gold Members for Live Downtime?Posted 4:13pm Thu Jan 03, 2008 by Shiva Stella Tags: Xbox 360, Microsoft, Call of Duty 4, Halo 3, connection errors, Xbox Live
Regarding those nasty Xbox Live issues that gold members have been experiencing since Christmas,Torrent Davis over at The Bitbag recently confirmed that he'd been in contact with a source at Microsoft who stated that "we [Microsoft] will definitely be doing something for our Gold memebers that weren't able to get online over the last week."

This is interesting in that it would mark the first time Microsoft has compensated members for Live "issues".

Sounds spiffy considering that 360 owners have been complaining that they have basically been paying Microsoft in order to beta test their Xbox Live service. Of course, gamers who were frustrated in their attempts to play Call of Duty 4 or Halo 3 online could have just played other games, but why pay for a service if you don't even get to use it for the games you want?

The good news is that Live seems to have stabilized some.

Ubisoft to Patch Assassin's Creed (PS3) SoonPosted 10:20am Mon Nov 26, 2007 by Shiva Stella Tags: Assassins Creed, Ubisoft, patch, errors, PlayStation 3
If you've been playing Assassin's Creed on your PlayStation 3 and experiencing freezes and other errors that make the game unplayable then you might be pleased to know that Ubisoft is aware of the problem and addressing it.

Your level of pleasure, of course, entirely depends upon whether or not you kept the game after experiencing the issues. Here's the info from a Ubisoft forum post:

Following our recent statement regarding the freeze issues that some consumers are facing with Assassin’s Creed on PlayStation 3, we can confirm that we are actively working on a game update. This update will help improve the stability of the game and will be released as soon as possible. In the meantime thank you for your ongoing feedback and patience.

Note that the problem-and-fix being addressed is for the UK version, but PS3 gamers stateside have already acknowledged that they're getting some of the same errors - and I see no reason why the fix wouldn't be released over here.
