Xbox live services working?

I don't know the exact mechanism of what happens when you start a game however if it doesn't start during a service outage then it's likely that the console attempted to do an authentication check of your digital purchase and wasn't able to successfully
complete it most likely because the server or services it was trying to use were unavailable.

None of my games are opening! Seriously, what is going on??? I’ve tried everything from refreshing my games to restarting my console and even doing a hard reset. NO EFFECT. I keep getting the same pop-up from Xbox Live saying “Sorry, looks like
our service isn’t working right.” WHAT?!!! Is anyone else having this problem? And if you are, do you know what’s causing this or when it’s getting fixed?

we have the same problem I can use everything while my husband cant play any of his games online or offline. it says on support all games should work but we are having problems with it. we reset the xbox and restarted games what is going on?

Same issue here. It is election night in the US. It could be the Russians breaking the internet.
