So.........

[fishki]

Ok, so my kid won that new xbox playin monopoly at mcdonalds a while back, and i still have not hooked it up, not sure if i want to pay for online gaming, but i would like to get back to playing some xbox games, havent played any in years.....

so, since im out of the loop, how much is xbox live now per month?

[WHO_99]

because of the failing economy it is like $50 a month now, it suucks

[fishki]

you mean 50 a year dont you

[WHO_99]

ugh i wish. its 50 per month now. soooo lame. thats why i had to delete mine. wayyy to expensive for me

[Noodlez]

50 a month?...noooo...its 50 a year

[fishki]

no way anyone would pay 600 a year to play, i guess 50 a year aint to bad

[Noodlez]

honestly...its worth the 50 bucks a yer...if you really go through it thoroughly people think its just cross game voice chat and online play...but its way more than that

[krazykat]

$50/Year if your going to play your xbox a lot and make a ton of friends, then it is worth it. If your only going to pick it up to play once or twice a month (online), then don't bother.

You can get the cards on Amazon for like $35, $40.

[fishki]

yeah amazon has the cards for $37.29 and free shipping so yeah i might prolly do this, also wat are the cards for with the points?, like there was one with 1600 points and one with 4000 points.

[Noodlez]

points is what you use to buy stuff...for example an xbox live game might cost like 800 points or a map pack might be 500 points

[pineapple7811]

only reason i never liked xbox was because of the controller..

just sayin..

[fishki]

yeah i dont like the controller layout myself but damn there are some xbox only games that i want, plus my nephew has some that i can have since he doesnt play much anymore

[twistedblister]

ha. nice to have relatives and friends who share games. :-)

controller wise. mmmmmmmm its a damn odd shape but i got used to it. i guess if i had to choose though
i like the ps3 one better.

[fishki]

gonna have to hook it up so i can play reach

[twistedblister]

reach is / was fun in the beta. IDK how much i will do online. its so solid as both single and multi though. i got a few kills in multi so i might not feel to reluctant to play
