Really, I can see that being a huge issue for some people - like you for instance. I've been through 1 major outage *knock on wood* on my provider in the 12 years I've been with them and that lasted less than 24 hours.
If MS doesn't do away with that online check or at least extend it to once a month type deal, I'll be surprised. The outrage over it is too high and it, among other things, is pushing people that are more Xbox (like myself) away from them.
I'm actually thinking I might grab a PS3 after the new consoles come out if the price drops. There are quite a few games I'd love to play.
