So I just noticed the other day that my tenure icon on my gamertag updated from 4 to 5.  As of about September 16th I am a 5 year Xbox Live veteran!  I can remember way back to that day in 2004 when I first got Live.  The first game I played was Rainbow Six and then Rainbow Six: Black Arrow.  Those were the glory days and are what really got me into online gaming on consoles.  5 years later and after the 360 update, I have accumulated the following stats for you all:

Current GamerScore:  26,695

360 Games Played:  88

Microsoft Points Purchased:  28,000 (yes that's $350 worth of MS points...)

Halo 3 Kills:  12,000

Call of Duty 4 Kills: 31,600

Gears of War 2 Kills:  3,000 (least played and we all know getting kills in Gears is a lot harder than in Halo/CoD)

How long have each of you been a member of Live and what are some of your fondest memories?

This would be my fifth year as well had I got a 360 on launch.

Nothing beat Halo 2 and R6:Black Arrow back in the day

How can you see how many points you purchased?

You can't.  I just saved all my emails you get from MS after purchasing them and I added them all up.

True that.  I really wish they could make another Rainbow Six that was as good as Black Arrow.  I really miss that game.

Oh....It is just I really would like to know;...It is possible I spended more than 100.000 points.

Me too.

I love the R6:Vegas series, but I always thought BA was so much better.

Halo 2 and 3 have provided some extremely entertaining moments.

Congrats.

I've been on Xbox Live for about 2 years, I remember playing Gears of War with my friends almost every night, good times. Sadly a lot of my friends barely get on anymore or are only on when I'm not.

^Same thing happened to me. Stupid college and taking everyone's time
