Lets say someone bought an XB1, a couple games and titan fall,  then towards summer they are laid off.  Now money is really tight but they are managing.   Now the live sub runs out,  50 bucks may be a big chunk of change.   So they choose to let it lapse.   Now TF  is completely useless to that person until they can pay for it again.  So yes hunger would be a big concern, but how does that change the fact they cant play TF anymore? it would suck for them because now they are in a tight spot, and the game they do have to try and unwind and forget about shit arent working.

I dont think this is a major issue and like i said will be minimal.  but there will be people who just dont think about it and down the line end up in a spot where they cant play anymore

If you lose your job, shouldn't you be a little more worried about getting another one rather than playing video games?


cant hand out resume's at night :P

Alright, but I mean come on, do you really think people with jobs actually sit around and wait for their Xbox Live to expire before adding more? No, we plan and have it for at least a year ahead. Hell I have it until 9/2016 just because I bought 2 twelve months for $70 last year. That's less than a tank of gas for me. But if I did lose my job, I wouldn't be sitting around playing Xbox, even at night I'd be filling out applications or sleeping because I have an interview in the morning. 

My original post said itll effect a minimal amount of people.  there are circumstances that could lead to the scenario but very very few will.  But it is possible.  maybe the kids example is a better one where a punishment takes away live but not the console and games.  This isnt something that will pop up as a problem though lol  and hell its kinda like buying sporting gear.  I can pay hundredss for skis, but i still need to pay to use the lifts, and if i couldnt afford the lift ticket.. then im stuck with ski's and nothing to do lol
