XBOX Live sucks

I finally got my internet connection switched on this evening and after an hour or so trying to set up my old XBOX so I could get my account details off it to set up my XBOX live account on my 360 I managed to transfer my account.

But in doing so, the thing managed to delete all of my save games, 24 hours or so of playing the games I own down the pan, no gamepoints anymore and no achievements. This has to be one of the most frustrating things I've encountered with the 360 yet.

Once I did have live up and running it was completely pointless, Perfect Dark Zero is terrible and while PGR3 is ok, playing live with other people is a little unappealing as they constantly chatter crap over the microphone and the majority of players are so much better than me that there is little chance of me ever winning.

Downloading game demos and trailers is all well and good but you can't do anything other than sit and watch them download while this is happening. Overall, I'm thouroughly unimpressed and would much rather be playing my save games off line than what little fun there is to be had online with my trashed save games.
