A lot of Battlefield: Bad Company players have been having connection troubles when trying to play the game online. EA acknowledged those troubles, promised to fix them and advised for the stupidest workaround ever.

"We are aware that some X360 players are having issues connecting to the Bad Company servers", said the official Battlefield: Bad Company website. "We've been monitoring stats non-stop and are working with several partners to locate any possible flashpoints and eradicate any hostiles we encounter."

The official site then went on to advise for a temporal workaround: "Until we are ready to implement a permanent fix, a possible workaround is to turn off your console for approx. 20 minutes before turning it back on and connecting again."

It is hard to believe that connection problems have anything to do with console overheating or uptime.
