i think so cause couple of mates of mine were online and inviting me but i couldnt connect kept coming up with "attempting to connect to game provider" bullcrap..

thats my assumption anywho..

when it says cannot connect to game provider i just leave the fone up with that message and eventually it works. BTW if you cant get into a multiplayer game like me. try a custom game with maxed out slots and invite friends only . It usually works
