so free if you pay for gold?  thats like when psn-plus members say they are getting free games...


err no? Its free altogether but if you want extra crap then you have to pay haha


They will not offer this to Silver members, not when they even want to charge Gold for facebook.  Besides it says MMO, Gold is needed for multiplayer.

"Joy Ride for Kinect was originally pegged as a F2P game for Xbox Live Gold and Free members when it was first unveiled at E3 2009. Game modes and environments were planned to be free. Customization options were going to cost Microsoft Points, however."

 

I owuldn't say it isn't pausible at all. In fact i think its likely all users will get access so MS can make mmore money from said games when people buy the accessories for them. The more people that have access the more people that can buy stuff for the game.

There is no way for MA to make further money from facebook so they limit it to gold memners to get people to purchase gold, different business plan.

The article did mention that some MMOs use the f2p system but did not make it sound like that is what MS is pushing here. They made it sound like it would be more like joyride. I am guessing it may be like alot of facebook game too.
