 Xbox Live Gold Membership November 24, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The first thing people usually say when they find out you need to pay to online game with other people on Xbox Live is, "What?! Its not free?"
Honestly, 40 - 50 dollars a year is hardly anything. That is less than 5 dollars a month, which equates to about one less Taco Bell stop per month.
Xbox Live is where it's at. Having played on both, Xbox Live is far superior to Playstation's network, for a few reasons. First of all, since Microsoft is getting 50 dollars a year from subscibers, that means the connections, servers, etc. tend to work really well with all that influx of cash. Second of all, the individuals who use Xbox Live are more likely to be gamers, not just some socially inept individual who decided to make a free account just to screw with people. Thirdly, because Xbox Live is a paying service, users tend to not be overly vile or rude, because they can be reported and thus lose their privilages.
Sorry I focused on the negative side of the positives. Bottom line, it is a great bargain; and if you own an Xbox 360 and do not have Xbox Live, then you are not tapping into all the capabilities of your system.
 Does it work in Europe? November 23, 2008

Just a quick question, because this is very cheap, does this card work in Europe??? I have tried it once with Xbox live points and it did not work.
Why buy this anywhere else? November 21, 2008

For $11 less than anywhere else that I have found, why would anyone go somewhere besides Amazon? I now have 13 months of being able to play against friends all over the country, and I saved enough money to get my wife to allow me to get World At War ;) With the New XBox Experience coming out a couple days ago, I'm really glad that I got this item, so I can take full advantage. If your looking for some fun online gaming, get Live right here.
A better value than found in stores November 20, 2008
If you buy this in the store or direct from Microsoft, it's normally $50 for a 12 month membership. By ordering here you get the extra month for a cheaper price. Seriously. Why would you go to the store?
And as anyone who has an xbox360 knows, having a gold Live membership really amps up the experience. You get to play against friends and people across the world. Pretty cool stuff, my friends.
12+1 Month of XBOX Live Fun November 19, 2008
It's exactly what it says it is. Can't beat that, cheaper than paying for it directly through XBOX Live with an extra 1 month to boot. Good stuff.
