Because are you also going to buy Uncharted, a 160GB HDD and wi-fi to make them comparable? It is just stupid, and having to pay for Xbox Live is an annoyance. In the UK, if you got an arcade now, and then you paid for 3 1/2 years of live, you would basically have to pay the same price for the console as to play online.
My funadamental problem with it is that I have a PS3 and a 360, and say I am buying Modern Warfare 2. I pay £55 for both copies, but on the 360, that price does not really include the multiplayer, I have to pay an extra charge, and given that I only play on my Xbox online sporadically, the months that I have paid for Xbox live have cost me £5, so Gears of War 2 has cost me an extra £15 the very least to play online for a little while. It is just plain annoying that my money for buying a game is going into paying for the development of multiplayer, but I have to pay an extra charge to access that content
I know it is more fair with Netflix in the US, but we don't get that in the UK
