Leetgeek, it is obvious online play is not your thing since you mentioned enjoying mostly single player games so why would you pay for a year of Live? Halo 3 is mainly a multi-player game with a single-player tacked on, which is maybe why you did not like. Blu-ray is nice but I am not getting fleeced into buying one at this point in time at their current price points. Upconversion is fine until prices of both the movies and players come down.

 

I mainly play singleplayer games on the console.  But for those few occasions where I DO want to play a multiplayer game on a console, it's nice being able to do so for free.  As opposed to paying $50/year for a service I wouldn't use too often.

ToasyJaguar, I hate Halo.  Well, I don't HATE it, but I think it's a boring game.  I really wanted to like it.  After hearing about it when it was still slated for the Mac, I was excited for it.  When it went to the XBox, I was excited for it.  After playing the singleplayer PC demo, I was excited for it.  After playing the final games, I was so disappointed.  Other than the level included with the demo, the game was boring.  Then Halo 2 was announced and I thought it would be better.  I was house sitting for a friend, and he had an XBox with Halo 2.  I had to play in 20 minute spurts because the game bored me out of my mind.  I got about 2 hours in before I gave up entirely.  The only saving grace of the Halo games IMO is the co-op, which is very well done and fun.
