Xbox Live Subscription Cost Rising

Even less of a reason for me to get it now. I wouldnt pay previous prices for it, no way in hell Im going to pay more for it.

I can play games free on my pc and my ps3 so there is no reason why I would pay to play games on my 360.

I cant believe people do pay for it myself because it nickel and dimes you to death. Say I want to get netflix on my 360 I cant just buy the service I have to buy xbl gold also. Or if I have say left 4 dead 1 and want to download the free content pack for it, I have to pay MS to download it "free" and have to buy xbl to play it online. F that, I have the pc version that was cheaper to buy to begin with by half and I got the content pack actually free through steam and I can play it online for free.

When xbl first hit I used my free month code when I got a 360 when it came out and hated it. Was 85% annoying kids screaming racist shit and yelling, 10% was adults that act like bastards and trying to piss people off and they all sounded like they were as smart as a hammer. So I never paid for it. Like couple years later I got a free 2 week code in a game so I tried it again and nothing had changed, it was still jam packed with fucking idiots.

Yeah pc and ps3 online players can be assholes also, but atleast Im not paying to deal with them. Let alone paying more than previously to deal with them.
 
I'm not a gold subscriber at the moment so this news doesn't affect me overall. Since I find the existing subscription prices too high to justify personally however it does ensure that I will not be a gold subscriber even more now.

Also this is a dick move considering the recession in the US. With that said XBox Live has not not even existed when the US economy was good anyway (since 2002) so they were probably holding out as much as they could, but still this is a dick move.
 
Well anyone who currently pays $7.99/month is a fucking moron and shouldn't be on CAG anyway. $35 XBL 12 month cards are readily available on Amazon.com and other sites. I just hope these XBL card prices don't raise too much.
 
Yea i don't understand why they are raising the price...it's not justified or fair ...but for the past 3 years i have been patient and i only renew my subscription when i can get it for 30$ from Walmart or Amazon,etc. so, i would suggest the same thing for the OP otherwise go silver. But personally I can't give up XBLA until PSN brings their server up to par. ( By the way i'm willing to pay PSN a FEE as well if they were to do so...."PLUS" doesn't cut it)
 
my thoughts are i hate it and xbots/sheep/fanboys all over are yelling and arguing with each other over the differences/comparisons of LIVE/PSN

but we're better than that
