The software firm said it was "disappointed" with its performance and promised a free downloadable game to all users as recompense.

As a reward for their patience, Mr Whitten said all eight million members would get access to a full Xbox Live Arcade game free of charge. Details of how to claim this game would be made available in the next few weeks, he explained. He added the outages were driven by a record-breaking number of new members signing up, and the biggest ever number of concurrent users.

.. And to boot, it seems that Microsoft will be taken to the courts over this outage."
