xboxliveshouldbefree motto?

I have gotten tons of messages telling me to make my motto xboxliveshouldbefree and it would eventually be free. Is it really true?

and also, think about this. Xbox live shouldn't be free because then there would be no updates, not downloadable extra content, laggy as hell connections. Its the small 50 bucks a year that makes us have fun on xbox live.

Whoever said it will be free eventually is wrong.

PSN is free but has NONE of those problems. Considering Microsoft is richer than Sony, they could EASILY have Xbox live be free without changing it at all.

Yup, this same method would work for gas prices as well

50 dollars for a year is just 13 cents a day. That's pretty good.

re: xboxliveshouldbefree motto?

I really don't know why so many people want it to be free. The reason that it's the best online console network is because it costs money. That's where all the updates and shit come from. Seriously, it's only £40 a year (Or £35 if you get a 12 month card off Play.com). That's like the same price as a game.

re: xboxliveshouldbefree motto?

Free or not, Home still can't, and isn't, compete with Live.

You guys can talk it up as much as you like but Sony just hasn't delivered with the PS3 yet. I use yet because I like Sony as well. They just aren't cutting it right now.

Mayeb later they will and I'll go grab one.

Until then...

Many people have paid for a year and will feel riped off if it becomes free. If it was going to be free it would have been at the start not now or ever

re: xboxliveshouldbefree motto?

If LIVE would be free, MS would lose an average of $30 MILLION DOLLARS A MONTH ($5 a month, 6 million subscribers, I rounded) at minimum. They're not making it free.

I agree. I've been paying for Live for about two years now.

Still, a price drop of maybe 5 bucks might be plausible, but Live will never be free.

They'd probably refund you in Microsoft points.

re: xboxliveshouldbefree motto?

The only way LIVE will ever be free is if there are no more Halo games. We all know that most people only bought LIVE because of Halo 2 or Halo 3. Eventually without Halo people will realize that there are no good games for LIVE and will eventually cancel their subscriptions.
