1. I use the feature how I can talk to a friend playing a differant game all the time. I have friends that have moved outta this area and someties its nice to catch up in private chat while we each do our own thing.
2. Unified friends lists are huge. I turn on my 360 and see what heads are doing. So and so are playing NBA 2k or Marvel or Spades or Gears or Rainbow or PGR or whatever. Makes having huge games with all your friends that much easier and also leagues and whatnot. I can also play something else (Oblvion or whatever) and wait and see when all my Gears or rainbow buddys jump on and then go join them.
3. I think achievements are fun, but not essentail. I did just win a bunch of free stuff by raising my gamerscore though.
4. Having Voice chat in every game is huge. Team work requires communication. And if you dont want to use voice you dont need to. If you are a lone wolf you can just play ranked. With no fear of being booted because in ranked matches you cant be booted.
5. Someone annoys you? with a couple a clicks you can avoid them for the entire time you have a 360 and in every single game. Someone you would like to play with ? couple clicks and prefer them and more chance you will play with them again in the future. Or if you really like them send a friends
XBL gaming owns.
