I was just wondering if me and my brother can play xbox live on the same account on the same console (split screen for gears btw) with 1 subscription or do we have to have 2 diff accounts and 2 subscriptions
If you both want to play under your seperate gamertags, then yes, you both need to have gold accounts. However, if you don't feel like paying the extra money, you can go into the player match menu, then have your brother press Y. There'll be this thing that says "Guest Sign-in."
Have him go to "Guest". Then you can both play on a split screen. He won't be able to talk into a mic or here others unless you set it so that the sound comes out of the TV and mic. He will be signed in as your guest. It will look like this:
