It's really not that big of a deal. Not to mention, Amazon has sells on 12 month live cards all the time. I've see it as low as 34.00.
Beside, I've been a live member for many years now. I'm fine with it. Most of the people writing and crying about it, don't even have an xbox.
I agree with you 100%. Good point. Bubbles.
^ ^SL1M DADDY, that was pretty lame how you changed your bios after being called out. But then again, it just further supports the point cold2000 was making in the first place.

Imaging if Microsoft discontinues the pro bundle and go with only two skus. The arcade and the elite, and then set the elite price to 299.00 where the pro use to be.
That would be huge, it would almost force Sony to cut the price of the PS3.
You're trying to make your story more compelling my quoting RRP at shopto.com. Well guess what people aren't paying RRP. The actual cost for KZ2 and Halo 3 on shopto.com is:
KZ2 - £27.85 Platinum Edition £19.99
Halo 3 - £17.95
So if you're going to try to make a point please tall the whole truth.
The DLC is not to blame here, it the greedy a$$ software houses and publishers that are ruining it. They want to squeeze every single penny they can out of their customers.
And when I say "They" I mean all of them. (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Ubisoft,etc.)
To make video games purchasing exclusive to stores is going to the lowest level. What do they do in small towns that don't have gamestop (I guess ubisoft don't giv-a-sh!t)
I think it sucks that cell phone companies does this, and it this business practice gets too out of hand, it will suck for us all.
The 360 made more that the entire Playstation trio combinded. Nice job 360, way to hold it steady.
Didn't notice that on mine.

What's wrong with avatars, you only need to look at them when you are on the friends tab or under the my xbox tab.
That's got to be in the top ten of the most rediculous spins I have ever seen put on anything. This guys is saying that the PS3 cost more per unit and this is why they are winners, yet the most repeated statement out there from sony and it's fanboys is that the 360 is more expensive.
With that being said and using this guys own analogies, the 360 is doing even better than though before his article.
Such a silly article, and if any of you need this spun up crap t...
Was this story just the problems that a single person was having with live? And it actually was approved as news? This dude probably has the network cable disconnected from his console...lol
pervs!
Perhaps developers think to themselves, why put any time into this PS3 game. All they are going to do is b!tch about it anyway and not buy it. I have never seen a PS3 fanboy say anything good about ANY game unless it was a Sony first party title.
You dudes are never happy. I like a good debate, but some of your guys are so difficult to reason with that it just makes me disgusted with you. The PS3 is a great I mean really great console, it's the attitude and arrogance of the...
Wow, this place has a serious smell of "TROLL SH!T".
I need an oxygen mask!
You're kidding right?
Every and I mean EVERY single PS3 exclusive that get's announced received massive hype from the fanboys on N4G. Suddenly when 360 fans have something to talk about you can't understand it.
Additionally, there is obviously something different hear that the damn eyetoy or perhaps sony would have done it. Stop hating. And stop being a hypocrit.
Drop the double standard.
If you look up top, this article is for PS3 and for E3 2009. So now were trolls if we read E3 news.
@Bsiegel81 - You were actually making some since and start to sound like you had half a brain until you made the following comment.
" But, it is granted to say that ultimolu is the closet you ever had any conversation with a female since grade school LOL :"
How can anyone take you seriously if you are going to make a comment like that. Al...
You know I was watching the conversation between you and 360FTW2 and I think it was pretty lame of you to completely erase your last statement and change it to something totally different as to make yourself appear to be the mature one. (after his edit time was over)
You made smartass comments to him and after people started disagreeing with you, you completely erased your comment and wrote something totally different. You are a coward and your sh!t is WEAK!
Haha, it's funny you say that, because on N4G most of the time if you say something about the PS3 that's not positive, you practically don't get to express an opinion with getting bombarded with bashes and negative backlashes. Which means the only way you can have an opinion around these guys is ONLY if your opinion matches theirs.
People are always talking about Microsoft copying something, yet no one is saying that the sony motion control is a copy of the wiimote. That's ex...
Funny thing is everytime a new high graphic game comes out, people start chanting that the 360 is being pushed to it's max. The games are looking increasingly better yet, the 360 limits/upper limits seems to continue to rise with them.
I wonder when will we ever reach this so-called 360 limits that everyone keeps talking about. Wasn't the first modern warfare suppose to do that? Hmmm, sounds like my BS to me.
Morganfell - get off the damn soapbox, one could say the same thing about your last comment. Desperation? Are you kidding me, Sony saying that they are not going to drop the price of the PS3 while secretly making yet another "Slim" could be seen as desperation. Although personally I hope the PS3 slim is real, I'd like to get one as long as Sony don't make it "too" slim, like in all the features removed.
We'll see, but this backdoor bureaucratic smack you'...
