Xbox has always charged for their online service, but isnt that a little much? We have to pay for the console, buy all our games and accessories, we spend countless amounts of MSP on the Marketplace, we have to pay for our online service provider and they still charge 50 dollars a year just to play the games we buy?

However the leading competetor, Sony, can get by with giving their users free online service?

Im not saying they have to completely not charge us at all, but the price shouldn't be as steep as 60 dollars a year.

Okay Im done ranting now:)

yes but ps3 online isnt near as good. their mics suck, cant turn them off. you cant mute somebody without going to their profile and clicking mute, cant listen to music while u play without headpones and a mp3. But xbl is fun but im not sure if its worth all the money it is great for sure. just microsoft points and shit

Probably. But he has a good point, although Sony's servers aren't as good as the Xbox Live Connection and we have a wider variety of games on Xbox. If anything should be cheaper, it should be Call of Duty: Elite.

Xbox live is so much better than the playstation network. They go down every few weeks for matanince. (spelling) And remember the month down they had? Yeah.

Xbox is so much secure/advanced. We have so much better features, and its constantly getting updated. For what? 5 a month? Its worth it.

I have both systems and I do agree that xbox is much much more secure and overall better, but for some people who just play every now and then its too expensive on them.
