Original Xbox Live is still up and running as I type this post.

" Living on the East Coast sucks. "

I am disappointed that now GiantBomb will not be there for the end. I was loving the speculation of what was going to happen and was waiting for it but I just could not stay awake.

So did the whole thing not get archived?

But but but but but.... according to Vinny, the east coast is the beast coast. :) "

Managed to stay up thru the whole thing and played some Splinter Cell and Forza with Vinny. Had a good time with you gents and I must say you are the kings of Endurance Running!

Cause it's where wild beasts roam? "

Can you please archive this for us European Giant Bombers? :)

F this S

I was disappointed when I went to bed after they were only at it for about an hour, thinking I wasn't going to see the end of the original xbox live.  I'm even more disappointed now though seeing that I apparently missed some six hours or so of them playing :(  I might have actually stayed up if I knew that was going to happen, drat. 

My town had a blackout around 2 AM PDT, so I couldn't finish watching it. I'm not sure when the power came back on :(.

still going, :O

i hope we get a replay of the last moments. my body wouldn't let me stay up long enough to catch the full end

" @ArcticPlumber:  Dood, already on it. I've been looking around and I'm lovin' this place. Haha, I'm almost glad the original XBL is going down-- otherwise my lazy ass wouldn't have checked this site. [A sin that has thankfully been fixed, =D !] "

I lasted until 3:15am eastern time...i remember Vinny was at the controls but i really don't remember anything after Splinter Cell...Forza happened but i can't remember if it was before or after Chaos Theory.

well shit...is it over....if it is, that sucks...

I dozed off when they got to Forza. Is Live still running?

Best moment of the night for me by far...
 
Drew: "Stop eating my sesame cake!"

Tuned in when Ryan played the single race of Burnout 3: Takedown (lots of memories) and that was a looooong lap, ~4.5 minutes long (3 times).
 
It was tough watching Drew play so bad in Halo 2, but I relived my Halo 2 days by watching those "honor rule" games at justin.tv streams (Tower of Power is always entertaining and the screams in Zombies).
 
Went to sleep 5 minutes till 12:00 am, I knew it wasn't going to stop on the dime.

I went to bed not long after they switched to Mech Assault. ;_; sorry I could not stay up. It was either 5 or 6 AM on the East coast. 

This shit was bananas last night.

Drew was great. Whoever taught the guy to actually open his mouth should get a medal, as he was one of the highlights of the night. 
 
Wasn't a fan of Josh, seems a bit over-excitable.

Drew was tearing it up, he will take over Giant Bomb soon enough.

Man this shit lasted forever.  I fell asleep a little after midnight here in California, when I woke up at 2am, it was still going on.  I was like fuck this, and closed my laptop.  This shit was long, how long did they go?  Did they get to see it shut down?

I stayed up until 3AM CST and they were still playing Halo 2 (as was I) before I finally gave up. Is it STILL running?
 
EDIT: I just logged in and I can STILL get into games of Halo 2. W T F ?

They went for a little over 6 hours. It was like 12:30PM here by the time they finished. I logged on at around 10AM and was all 0.o why is this still happening.

damn. was hoping it was still rolling. I bailed at 4:30am mst.

just played a game of Halo 2 4v4 Team Slayer ranked.  So MS is a bunch of liars.  Halo 2 will go on forever...

How are they going to archive this?

I fell asleep at 4 AM Eastern, woke up at 7 and they were playing Mech Assault. I went back to sleep wondering if they would still be playing when I woke back up.

I put my headset by the bed and fell asleep just when they switched on forza(but I was still listening). Did xbox live actually got switched off or not? 
The singing moments were priceless.

I pretty much passed out at 4am eastern... kinda glad that I did by the sounds of it lol.
 
You say goodbye, but I say Halo.

I saw on the dashboard that it would shut down after April 15. So, a tragic misunderstanding?

One of the greatest GB live streams ever! You guys kept playing WAY longer than originally planned and it was entertaining as hell. Sad part is, I really would have liked to see XboxLive end "on air", but I guess Microsoft just can´t do anything on time.

Will there be another live stream tonight then? They have to be there when it closes!

" anyone knows what games they played besides halo2? "

" Will there be another live stream tonight then? They have to be there when it closes! "

heh wow.  I watch it till like 3:30 EST.  Randomly woke up around 6 and checked if they were still on and they were playing Star Wats Battlefront lol.  Wanted to watch so badly, but I needed sleep!!!!

I stayed up till 12:50 AM PST, but I had to get some sleep so I could get to work in the morning. Glad to hear you guys kept truckin! GB FTW!

I lasted until 4 am.  Man, was it great.  Big ups to Drew. Did they ever switch from Halo 2?

I sure hope so. Because as stupid as this is, lol, I am a frantic nerd duder who wants to know when Xbox Live 1.0 DIES! "

i went to sleep when they started playing Star Wars Battlefront. Even though i skipped my morning class, i still have work and i needs the money.

Little did they know, sounded like a great idea to witness the last moments of Xbox Live 1.0. The possibly few minutes past twelve where it would all come down... Evenutally, they were mistaken... They gave their lives to this night. We all just wish- WE COULD HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN THE LAST FEW MOMENTS!!!!! DAMN YOU, MICROSOFT, AND WAY OF TRICKERYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

So wait, Xbox Live 1.0 is still up and they played til 4am? 
 
I went to bed a little past 12:30pm pst, assuming it would end soon after that.  Poor guys, I salute you Giantbomb, you crazy bastards.
