There are rumors circulating on forums and on Twitter that the service has been hacked, though nothing official has been stated by Microsoft. As of 6 p.m. EST, I am unable to log into my LIVE account via the console or the web based dashboard (as shown above). I came home with a fresh (and used) copy of Halo 4, excited to test out the Forge multiplayer map editor. Unfortunately, I couldnt log in. Hopped off my couch to see if it was a subscription issue but soon realized that wasnt the case either. A quick search on the web and it was clear I wasnt the only one having this problem."
