Because they wouldn't be paying for Gold in the first place?

No. because it's inflation, whether or not you think it's worth it is irrelevent, keep your trolling to yourself.

Blah blah blah, scream troll rather than try and justify this nonsense. I mean all over the web there are comparisons between PSN and XBL and questions being raised if the XBL fee is even justified, then they go and hike the price?
Yeah that doesn't scream broken.

Justify? I like playing X360 games online. There, that's my justification. At the end of the day, nobody needs to justify anything to anyone but themselves, it's none of your business what they do with their money.
There are numerous features XBL has that PSN doesn't, and if besides the fact someone LIKES X360 games and thus pays to play them online, those features could justify the price to them.

With LIVE it's not A CHOICE. If you're (IMO) unlucky enough to have a 360 only, it's: "PAY UP, or we'll take away numerous features in all the games you bought. How are you not going to pay? I see people say: "if you don't like something, don't buy it". Nothing makes me more sad/mad. So are people NOT going to enjoy all the features in the games they just bought in the store for $60? Everyone with A SHRED OF LOGIC IN THEIR BRAIN understands that LIVE is a FORCED paid service for A LOT of consumers that don't have the choice between owning a 360, PS3 or Wii. In addition, the other platforms let you play online no problem, NO charge. But you sit there on your high horse, with enough money to own all consoles. Well, some poor kid or family probably got his/their 360 for christmas or won it or whatever and he got one game and can't even play it. You know, there are poor people who also got gaming consoles but still only got enough money for 1 or 2 games a year, let's say Halo and Gears. Hey, let's take away one of those games by MAKING them pay for a live subscription, that is if they want to fully enjoy the games they just bought... Fuck that. And then someone here says: "If they only can afford 2 games a year, they shouldn't be gaming at all" or something like: "if you can't afford $0.83 extra a month or $50/$60 (or whatever it is) a year you should clean up your financial stuff and not buy games". FUCK THAT ATTITUDE! Poor people are allowed to play games just as much as us, and I bet for that poor gamer, those 1 or 2 games they get to buy each year feels way better to them than all your and my gaming experiences COMBINED. Because you buy ALL the games, because you're better, you own ALL THREE CONSOLES, "Best of Both Worlds", gah I hate that!! You have the "shred of logic that tells you that this is inflation"... What an attitude to have, "everyone with a shred of logic". Well, I'm sorry for not having a shred of logic Mr. Shredder or whatever I should call a bozo like yourself, to support something that I feel is a complete shit deal for consumers. Something that is "optional" but still so VERY FORCED. Cry optional all you want, but there is nothing "optional" about LIVE for people who want to fully enjoy the games (not even made by MS) they have bough. A disgrace...
Oh, and I also hate the: "Just buy it online" crap. "Bla, bla bla, get it at Newegg..", "We all live in the same place (US or UK), just get it at Wallmart or Selfridges or wherever" NO I don't want to get it at Newegg. Not all consumers rave the internet for LIVE-deals like you forum geeks do. I hate that attitude... "Just get it at Newegg". Don't fucking "Newegg" me.....
How people support this shit is crazy, and I will never understand this. They don't even provide dedicated servers, and one of their biggest games, Gears 2 had MAJOR problems online, still they tout their service as better as their competitors. Because of what? Facebook? Voice messages? LastFM? Netflix? Games many people don't even like? Don't fucking insult me, the only thing some people need is PLAYING THE GAMES THEY ALREADY PAID FOR. If LIVE styled services becomes a standard in this industry, I know where to turn my (good for nothing) complaints. I don't like the signal us consumers sending to the industry, I hope MANY people stop paying for LIVE.
Oh, and Off topic: They banned Garnett for that post earlier? Nothing surprises me anymore here on vgc... You really lost the grip, banning people left and right for calling things out, "attacking"and "insulting" users (companies). Lol? What are we, children? Insulted on a gaming forum (LoL)? Are we not allowed to criticize companies in an "aggressive" manner? Sometimes, things need to be called out in a certain way and not wrapped with pink bubbles and cotton candy. Deal with reality. I expect to see the hammer soon, and frankly, I don't care.
