Ohh...

I remember signing on to Live for the first time a few years ago.

My first game was Perfect Dark Zero, I loved that game.

Its been fun, it would be funner for free.

That article brought back a lot of memories of some really fun times. I've been on Xbox Live since 2003. I remember logging many hours on Crimson Skies. I shouldn't have started a new account when the 360 launched now that it shows the years you've been on. I thought it necessary though since the majority of my friends list was Halo 2 players, plus I wanted to change my name. I also had Live Arcade back on the original Xbox. The only game I had was Ms. Pac-Man since it came free with the disc. I look forward to many more years with XBL.

ohhhh the memories
i remember buying the starter kit since day one
my 1st game was unreal championship (i think)
it was a blast hehe
ghost recon was the sh!t i remember playin all night long til sunrise

good to see you put the free month to good use.

a nice article but reading the comments makes me feel like a noob because Ive only had live for a year , my first online game was gears 2 though.

Damn they need to do another Crimson Skies.

made live account in 08 was beautiful until they introduced the new xbox experience. still was beautiful but the OS sucked and i was more familair. I loved playing battlefield and halo 3. i remember the first time i played halo 3 i didn't even know what halo is since it wasn't really well known here but my friend told me to buy it i bought it and i am glad i did. Was a new experience. The split screen, coop etc... the thing i loved most was 4 player coop campaign on LAN we got some TVs together and played for hours was awesome. I miss the old dashboard.

Nothing like Xbox Live.

Edit- WTF am i thinking?
