An issue with Microsoft’s Game for Windows Live servers is preventing some customers from accessing games that use the software. The ever-growing comment thread on Microsoft’s support forums repeatedly mentions difficulties with Dark Souls and Age of Empires Online, but that could simply be due to the popularity of those games.
“Starting from last night – some of our users are experiencing an issue connecting, in game, to games that they have previously had no issues with. We are aware of this issue and are looking into what is causing it and for a resolution,” noted a Microsoft moderator prior to the weekend.
Workarounds in the thread don’t work for all, and there no guarantee time for the issue(s) to be resolved.
