Yesterday, from around noon EST until late EST (past 9 or 10pm), XBL core services were down.
Currently, purchases and content usage is once again "limited"

According to people on reddit, and from my own experiences, some part of XBL, whether is social and gaming (matchmaking/friends), core services (pretty much everything), or purchases and content usage (accessing your digital games, buying new ones) has gone down 10 days in a row.
It doesnt mean live just goes straight down but at least one of those has failed every day for 9-10 days.
Microsoft has been completely silent on the issues besides "we're working on it". And to be fair, yesterday was the first time the whole operation came to a hault, usually its just one of the parts of live that has gone down (like friends suddenly being gone). Core services has NOT gone down every day.
There Is a hacking group claiming responsibility. Im not gonna link them to give them attention. But who knows if its actually true.
If im an XBL user, which I am, im fucking mad. Especially because there are people who claim they have set their console as their home xbox and going offline has not restored access to digital purchases. For most,it is.
If im a developer, im fuming right now. 2 big games released today that people either cant buy or cant play.
WTF is going on?
