Anybody purchased Castlevania: Symphony of the Night?

I want to know whether we can save the game progress like the PS1 version or not?

Is Xbox Live down?

I can't connect to Xbox Live on my Xbox 360, or even view Xbox.com on my PC. I can view my Xbox 360's blog at 360voice.com and my gamer profile at mygamercard.net, but my gamer picture and played games info won't load.

I've tried the network diagnosis on the console and my MTU failed.
My friend who is living nearby is also reporting the same problem. We're in Cyberjaya. Our consoles are unmoded.

So, is Xbox Live down, or TMNet is screwing us?
