Xbox Live adds 6 Million members in a single Year, is the hate unjustified?

I never said your complaints are not valid or wrong. I simply said you're complaining about things that aren't XBLG related.

Regarding the trophies, I only listed a few PS3 games I remembered off the top of my head. And Twisted Metal takes more than a month, especially if you're someone like yourself, who says you only play online a few hours a month or whatever. Outside of the 30 straight days with a ranked win, you also have other trophies that require a ton of grinding like killing someone with every missile type 100 times each. Takes a long time unless you boost. The Crysis trophy just proves my point. These online heavy requirements are there to entice you to hold on to your copy of the game. Nothing more.

If you understand that subscription prices get higher as the length gets shorter (ie, a 12 month subscription is cheaper than four 3 month subscriptions) then why are you complaining about it? Again, Sony does it too. Everyone does it. It's how the business works.

And I don't know what to tell you about sales. There have been sales that Silver members can access for as long as I can remember. And DLC reductions rarely happen on either console but its up to the publisher, not MS. And again.. entirely unrelated to XBLG. So yeah, whatever, feel free to take the last word here.
