I just bought an XBox 360 from Amazon today and am trying to get everything I'll need for when it shows up. I bought Call of Duty 4, The Orange Box, and Halo 3, and the wireless adapter, but will be picking up the Play & Charge kit as well, leaving me with just the XBox Live Gold subscription to buy. Is it worth buying the XBox Live Gold bundle that comes with the Live Vision camera? I know it comes with the camera, a headset (I already have a Bluetooth headset as well), and 200 points. Any input would be great.

no way. totally not worth it. hardly anyone uses it, and i double you would want to use it yourself (people do some disgusting things... and not hot disgusting things you hope a girl would do... but just gross things like put their vision cam on a picture of hitler and things like that).

use the money to get another game.

I'm holding out until more games start utilizing the camera, like NHL for creating players. One of the upsides to owning a Xbox Live Vision camera is that if you don't own a webcam, it is compatible with your P.C. I can't decide for you, but I've given you the information necessary to make one for yourself. Next time, I would recommend you research it yourself, because if you decide to base your decisions on what to buy from a ignorant user, you'll certainly be disappointed in the future.

Here are some links to break down the pricing.

I'm fully aware of the price breakdown so I know that I'd be saving some money. My main question was whether or not there were enough things to do with one in order to justify the added cost of the bundle seeing as how I've never even been on XBox live. While you think you may have given me enough information to make a decision, I wouldn't exactly say that's true. Other than telling me that the camera is compatible with a PC, your post comes off as condescending.

I don't see the point of the camera

I am not going to be buying one probably ever.

Yeah personaly I dont have one and i'm not planning on it because almost nothing supports it and even if it did.

It adds nothing to your game play experience since it will be the other guys who will see you.

I'd recommend against it, just get the normal bundle

I'd HIGHLY recommend the messenger kit though, wow you'll wonder how you lived without it. I love mine
