The Xbox team is hard at work getting ready for the launch of the New Xbox Experience, coming to Xbox 360s around the world later this fall. In order to prepare to bring you new features, games and experiences the team is going to need to take Xbox LIVE offline for a short time. On September 29 from 09.00 BST (12:01 AM PST) for 24 hours Xbox LIVE will be unavailable.

“Well, what are we supposed to do during that time?” you ask. We are a step ahead of you. Take a look below for the Top 10 Things to Do While Xbox LIVE is Offline for Maintenance. And don’t worry… Xbox LIVE will be back up soon, ready for the New Xbox Experience to come and change the way you and your friends stay entertained at home.

1. Sign up for Netflix and start creating your queue. This may take some time… Netflix offers more than 12,000 instantly watchable movies and TV episodes

2. Read the unofficial strategy guide to “Braid” so you can boost your Achievements and finally beat the game

3. Head over to the nearest mall to search for inspiration and design ideas to use when creating your Avatar. We hear cowboy hats and asymmetrical blazers will be in this year

4. Go out and take some great pictures to share with your friends during an Xbox LIVE Party. Wear your cowboy hat and asymmetrical blazer

5. Catch up on your favorite TV shows that you downloaded from the Xbox LIVE Video Store before the service maintenance. We recommend “Chuck”

6. Download XNA Game Studio 3.0 and start creating your Xbox LIVE Community Game. You might find your game on Xbox LIVE Arcade one day

7. Read the Gamerscore Blog and MajorNelson.com to catch up on the latest features coming with the New Xbox Experience

8. Play some couch co-op on “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise” and grow your garden, but watch out for Professor Pester, please

9. Play through the story-mode of the original “Gears of War” so you have a story refresher before “Gears of War 2” launches in November. Practice your Roadie Run

10. Get some sun. You are going to be spending A LOT more time inside once the New Xbox Experience launches

Forgot my fav past-time:

11. Ring up and abuse our customer service staff about how Microsoft - the people who created the likes of servers and such - can't figure out a way of performing maintenance without killing LIVE biggrin.gif

If, like me, you forgot it was the 29th you could always "fiddle" with your router for a while when it comes back with a message that it needs to be set @ more than 1394 MTU (whatever they are) to connect to Live whilst scratching your head and cursing technology in general. rolleyes.gif
