Aaron Greenberg thinks that the Xbox Live issues experienced last Christmas won't happen this year, as Microsoft are more than ready for the expected growth this holiday.

"We are well prepared for the type of growth we expect this holiday." said Greenberg. "We will have people standing by, more people on hand than we've ever had before,"

    @Aaron Greenberg you're wrong. No one is ever ready for growth. Nintendo is still not meeting the demand for the Wii consoles to this date.

    You can try to be prepared for it, but you're never prepared and ready for it.

        You can't possibly tell me he can forecast the activity before hand?

      Relax, he's just trying to do some damage control after the 2007 LIVE incident. He ALSO says, on top of reassuring gamers LIVE will remain functional this Christmas, that a support team is READY in case shit does go down.

      Actually, Nintendo are meeting the demand for the Wii console very well. There are never ending deliveries of them to the stores near my home, especially Gamestation. I know this as a friend of mine works there.

      I hope there isn't another LIVE incident, when i had my 360 it was a nightmare over christmas last year.
