or does it? I haven't seen any confirmation online, unless it was just rumors. Update: From the site that spread the rumor.
Update: We have made a grave error. The initial text we were given suggested that Xbox Live was free for 12-months with the "Day One" preorder pack. That is in fact not correct. The "Day One" Xbox Live 12-month Gold subscription will be available as a separate purchase. We're sorry for any confusion.-

Nope it doesn't.... You should know by now M$ is really desperate to get people's money with all the 180's and they would be at a total loss with in inclusion of 1 year free gold.

i've heard this also but if it were true it would have been a huge bullet point on the pre-order page on amazon or the official xbox site, so i doubt its true.

I haven't heard that. Even microsofts own site and major Nelson's official unboxing didn't have a xbl membership card in box or mention of a year free.

i might have missed it, the only thing i see on the pre-order tab on the dash is this.

$59.99, no mention of free live for day one.

While on the topic though, I see there are Day One Xbox Live Gold mamberships. Does this offer anything different to any other Gold code, or is it just pretty packaging? Can't seem to find out anywhere.

the Day One memberships have this printed on them:
play Killer Instinct: Round One, with the exclusive Shadow Jago character. Includes commemorative card and case.Microsoft
I thought KI was for everyone with gold though, unless they just wanted something to put on the package. lol
