Xbox DEAD

So apparently the Xbox LIVE service has been getting slammed this past holiday weekend, most likely from everybody joining the service after receiving their new Christmas gift. I've just gotten Gears of Wars and can't play any multiplayer! According to Major Nelson and the official Microsoft Xbox support page, the service is still having issues.
Status: Users may experience intermittent issues with login, account recovery, matchmaking, and statistics. We are aware of the issue and are actively working towards a resolution. We apologize for any inconvenience.
I hope they give us at least a free week for this. And I thought it was only Steam that was buggy.

So did the service ever go back to normal? I keep forgetting that you activated your LIVE account after all these years.

It just seemed to get 100% fixed today. Different services of LIVE were messed up throughout the week. It seems like we're going to be compensated with a free Xbox LIVE Arcade game. Kotaku says it might have been evil hackers. MS says it was due to high holiday activity. Either way it seems to be fine now.
