Microsoft to discontinue the Gold Family Pack

4.3

Microsoft has confirmed to Joystiq that they have discontinued the popular Gold family pack. What this means for current Family gold pack customers is that their family center settings management suite is still available for them... at this time.

When asked why this bundle which for just $99.99 gave the user four year long gold subscriptions they responded the following:

"We continually evaluate our business focus and work to offer services that make the most sense for our customers and Xbox."

This really sucks on my part because I just recently bought a family pack. Me and my friends decided to chip in some money and just buy a family pack.

Sucks there discounting it but I hope it comes back when the new xboxes come out in some way, shape or form :D

Relations I don't think alot off people will pay $100 to play xbox together.


100$ for 4 accounts is cheaper than the standard 200$..Alot of people used this
Yeah it was way cheaper, but I guess now people have to buy their own individual membership.

Never needed to buy this, I only need live for my one account. This sucks for houses with multiple live accounts though. :/

I was going to use this (one day) as I have multiple accounts that I'd like all to have gold. Not really bothered though.

That's a good business ploy which never worked, hopefully they bring in something better because hardly any full families play xbox

Frog This is good, I highly doubt many people bought this subscription. I mean, what family spends its free time playing Xbox together? =/


A good family.

haha no, I don't think many people used this.
Some people used it as a special deal. They would get people to all pay for the $100 for they can all get the one year gold.
