I actually prefer paying $50 a year for xbox live. If it was free, the online would never be worked on, we woul,d have bad servers to play games, it would lag immensly, and look at the online on the other systems. $50 a year for XBOX LIVE is only a small price to play for online that rivals that of computer gaming.
Nope. Even though this last year I haven't played online too much, I still like haveing that option. And whenever I find a game that I become obsessed with again, I will love having XBL. $50 is good. Games cost $60 and you grow tired of them. XBL gives you more value out of your games.
I think it's a ripoff, but seriously, this topic comes up like every two days.
"I think it's awesome!! I'd pay a bajillion dollers 4 it becuz microsoft are godz!"
"No, it's too expensive cuz u aren't rely paying for ne thing!"
"Well ur a doody head!"

"Well I reporting u to teh modz becuz you sed you thought liev wuz 2 expensive in a topic taht axed if it wuz 2 expensive an ur not alowed 2 post here unles u worship microsawft!!"
There, summed up the next 10 pages. Topic closed.

I've never seen those before. You sir, are probably a little kid.
Well it costs 40 sterling for me for a year subscription, but if I was to get it from the US, because of the rate on the dollar it would cost me 25. And that is like 2 a month but also if you consider how big the online community is, you are really getting alot for your money in my case.
Doesnt bother me one bit. Glad to pay my 50 bucks...gntolnx
How can you be glad to pay $50?
The reason XBL is better than PSN or Nintendo Online is because MS cares about online; not because we waste our money on it.
Sony did not go into the PS2 pushing online. They half committed to it this gen and it shows. Bottom line is we are paying for P2P online gaming that should be free.
Considering the time I'm on xbox live... it's one of my cheapest recreation...... If I play 60 hours a month... time 12= 720 hours for 50 bucks... nope... studying in a coffee shop everyday (which i do) is much more expensive... Actually, everytime I get coffee, I could pay for a month of xboxlive...
To be honnest, I'd rather have it free, but since we have better online option and gaming than the competition I have no problem spending the money on it...
I don't pay for it. I like ot play onlin,e but I don't play online often enough to warrant it. Generally, when I do play online, I prefer to play Resistance, Warhawk or MGO anyway *shrug*
lol thats rediculous...if your bothered by paying it you should not be playing online because ps3's online is nowhere near as good.JuanaSmoke
Have you actually played the PS3 online? Every game I ahve played online on my PS3 played just fine In many ways, it has becone XBLs equivalent...and it is free.
No because i mean 50 dollars per year isnt a lot of money. This issue is just like how people were mad that Bungie made us pay 10 bucks or 800 MS points to get the new maps. I mean 10 bucks isnt a big issue and neither is 50 bucks. If you can afford a 360 and all of its games and accessories, you can afford to splurge 50 more bucks once a year.
