I have read through this thread and it's all about "I pay for live because..this...that...the other".

Rubbish.

You pay for Live because you have no choice.

Don't pay and no online gaming, no online anything. You have nothing but a standalone console like the PS1.

This is good enough for some but obviously not for most.


If you are happy to pay for live, great. It's your money so you do what you want with it.

When justifing something that is mandatory, as in this case, it is like making a lame excuse.

It's like saying "I love to pay my taxes"  without adding  "because I really don't have a choice and I would get fined or put in prison otherwise"

Just my opinion.

My intention is not to offend.






You are right.  I also pay for DirecTV because they won't give it to me for free.  I mean, broadcast TV is free, right?  Those BASTARDS at DirecTV make me pay to bring me more channels.  Viva la resistance!

Sure, it would be great if XBL Gold was free, but it's not.  In my experience it has been a superior product to PSN.  If it was inferior I might have a different opinion about it's value but until that day (which goes beyond Netflix and cross game chat), I feel I am getting what I pay for from XBL.

I give that post a 9.1.



Thank god for the disable signatures option.
