The Live Arcade certification recomendation is a max of 50 Meg until larger memory units become available. It's not completely set in stone, but every developer has stuck to it so far. There have been lots of interviews about it.

Any idea why it won't let me download the trial of Lumines? Is the game getting hammered with downloads?

I think Live may have went down.

I fired up my 360, logged in. When I tried to play an arcage game, it said I was disconnected. Ran the test, and its failing on XBox Live.

The xbox.com page hasn't worked all day since it came back. I can't log in or get to the forum.

I had the same problem. It took me five tries to sign on to Live. Everytime I ran a test it said Live "failed".

Is anyone going to get Tiger Woods this year? I ran out to pick it up today but I realize that all my friends who bought it last year are still bitter and they refuse to buy it this year. If anyone wants to play down the road send me a message.

I'll probably get it eventually. The demo was pretty sweet.

I still can't download Lumines! WTF is going on with Live? Does anybody else have this problem, or is it just me?

I can't download it either, it will start but will disconnect after about 20 seconds. Hopefully it will be fixed soon, along with Xbox.com

Right now, I can't even connect to Xbox Live. If I run the test, everything comes up daisies, but my account just won't connect.

And all you had to do was be up at 5:45 A.M. EST to download Lumines.

I was able to join a live game of Texas Hold'em and download the TMNT trailer but, I could not get Lumines to come down. I'll try again later tonight.

This has been a great update so far. An entire day down for them to do the upgrade, and now its back down again. I can't sign into Live at all. Can't log into Halo even. Xbox.com won't let you log in or display your myxbox.com page.

Just curious, but does Microsoft add days to XBL subscriptions for downtime? Seems reasonable, but I doubt they do.
