I wouldn't ever dream of dropping XBL Gold. All of my friends are on it (whom I get to talk to a lot via party chat) and there's also that little game called Halo which I love so, so much.


Little things like this are the simple little things that hold  the core of the 360. Weak, but yet such a strong chokehold. You pay for so little and they block access to third party subscriptions they have absolutely nothing to do with. Like the guy said, if they can get away with it, why stop? 

Halo is not a "weak chokehold". You're acting like I'm stuck forever paying for XBL and that I hate it when it's quite the opposite. It's like paying for Netflix, I gladly do it because it offers such an incredible amount of value to me hence making it totally worth it. Same thing applys to XBL.


Halo is a game not an online service. You pay them because a shooters online regardless of Xbox Live is superior to any other? Put your eggs in the right basket. If its worth it to you then its worth it. I am just saying this exactly why they wont drop the $60 yearly subscription. They dropped it on PC because they aren't falling for that, simple.
