Good read, S.T.A.G.E.

I think you hit it on the head with friends.

I've suspended my membership for a while, but before I did the single most important reason to own XBL for me was the fact that I wanted to play online multiplayer and co-op with my friends. Left 4 Dead, Gears of War, Halo, F.E.A.R. 3, Army of Two, etc. When it comes to video games, I think we tend to go where our friends go.

Same here, when I get competitive on a shooter, I get crazy competitive. I almost forgot how much adrenaline I get from playing with my friends because we used to be in a clan on PC when I was younger. I finally figured out how to bounce off of walls in Gears and staying in constant movement as well before tag nade someone. Brilliant!
