The recent Xbox outage preventing some players from accessing their physical games should not have happened according to chief technology officer Scott Van Vliet, who says the company is looking into this part of the outages.
We had a nice reminder of why the all-digital future is looking bright over the last week, as we saw a PlayStation outage which prevented people from playing the shiny new Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls beta, and then a nice little Xbox outage because you wouldn't want to be left out no matter which console you play on. Obviously none of this was supposed to happen, but while the digital game issues were inevitable, Xbox owners found that some physical games were also rendered unplayable.
