Halo connection difficulties

This may be in the wrong area and I apologize if it is but I cannot seem to play Halo 4. Every time I pop the disk in it is saying “Loading Content” and never showing the online games. My internet connection is fine and I’m able to go on Xbox live from my 360. Whats going on? What can I do to fix this?

This has been going on all day.

everyone has been having this problem including me, Microsofts servers are messed up and they have been sending out tweets notifying that they are doing there best to work on he problem, this morning people have also been having trouble signing on, so it’s everyone that is having these problems, we just need to be patient.

Her is Microsoft’s Tweet so you know what is going on:

Hope this helped :slight_smile:

Or if you want the full dope on the status of XBox Live (instead of <255 letters):

They are having multiple XBL issues right now.

I tried watching some local videos on my attached USB 2 drive and it kept hanging when it was connecting - kept stopping with a black screen that said “Opening…”. Apparently, XBL is checking your media content with something online too - and then kept hanging.

At least I can play Halo Reach or ODST without a connection.
