I don't get why the people who probably won't ever buy a XBox are the most vocal against live gold. MS has made tons of money on gold suscriptions during the last 10 years. I don't think they will change this the next generation, they will want to keep the income source. If you don't want to pay for live, do as I did, don't buy a MS console, there are alternatives.


because they, like myself, looked at all of the consoles and said to themselves; "gold is an exploitive business practice". 

I was furious when I got the orange box and then couldn't play team fortress without doubling down on cost.  so i took my money elsewhere.  it was a real easy decision too.  my ps3 cost less then what i would have spent on a gold subscription had i stuck with xbox.
