I agree with rover, anyone who pays for a gold subscription does so to enjoy a service which is monitored and maintained. if there was a problem with Live Microsoft has an obligation to repair it quickly because people pay for the service, also from my personal experience from when my brother brings his ps3 round is that Live has more on offer IMHO, such as demo's, videos and movies, xbla and games on demand, facbook and twitter when they're available and for me in England premiership football when that's available

actually PSN never been down for more than couple ours and if its  down its only for mainteniance.

everything you mentioned its available on PSN also demos if you suscribe to Qore.

 

So its acceptable to pay for Qore but not XBL even though you can get them for near the same price.   Right >_>

Qore is optional, and i will never pay for it.

i just want my multiplayer online free. and i got it =).

That's what I've been trying to get through here, I know XBL has cool features but why include online multiplayer in it?  why online multiplayer is optional?  thats separating the XBL userbase from Silver and gold ..

A perfect XBL world would be Silver and Gold accounts play together.

Its only about online gaming I'm talking about here its not about the superior extra features XBL Gold offers.

It's about Silver members getting to play online as default ?..

And what about Gold members "only" get to play online with all the extra bells and whistle?..

Silver members                                               Gold members

.......                                                                 chat

.......                                                                instant mgs

.......                                                                cross chat

.......                                                                 netflix

.......                                                                share movies

.......                                                                tweeter

.......                                                                facebook

.......                                                                 demos

online gaming                                                online gaming.

This way it still make Gold accounts more appealing.

 

I't doesn't make sense I buy a $60+ game, example: Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and the online multiplayer is not included/optional when the PS3, PC and Wii has it as the standard ..

I will have to renew my Gold account but not for the extra features (which for me are being forced upon me) but only to play online..
