    What more can you ask for!! if you own a xbox 360 your stupid not to have LIVE best thing you could buy for your console and yourself. Why buy a game complete single player and then never play it again 90% of games have some sort of online playing so bring your old games back to life with this cheap! for a whole year! subscription!

    This is the best place to buy this item even xbox themselfs still sell it for 39.99 buy from amazon and you save enough to make it worth it!!

    my advice when making your name on xbox live make it different not like the "Dark Knight" that'll be gone! just be orignal try not to use numbers either you regret it!



    5 out of 5 stars You really must have Xbox Live if you own a 360   October 30, 2008

    Its simple, without xbox live gold membership your gaming experience is limited. You will not be able to play any online multiplayer or online coop, you will be left with just the single player campaign.

    Online COOP is the future of gaming and all the big developers and rushing to add to compatibility. This is bringing people together like never before and effectively removing the single player aspect of gaming ( of course you can still use it).

    The service overall is excellent but i recently had a one hour anger attack at the customer service people because i was banned with no reason given.

    I don't buy into the new idea of buying movies over xbox live, a bit to much for me but i can see why people would see the benefit.

    Compared to PS3 and Wii services this is by far the easiest interface to use, its easily the best as well with all the features.

    Overall, this service is essential if you want to get the best from your gaming time. I would be concerned if i had young children playing it though because sometimes the language gets colorful but parents need to properly supervise there children while they are using it.



    1 out of 5 stars a rip off !   September 27, 2008

    don't get me wrong xbox live is essential and great fun. But ea games do not work if you are under 18.Yet the biggest problem is its 40.00. Playstation 3 online services (playstation network) is free and so is wii. wii is inferior to xbox in online play but ps3 is the same quality online yet free. So why do 360 owners have to pay? A COMPLETE RIP OFF!

    Xbox Live is essential to get the most from your xbox. Although it is 40 pounds the game play is seamless unlike archaic PC and Playstation online games where you have to connect to various servers. Microsoft funds and runs all the game servers so they are virtually lag free and rarely down.
    With the new system you don't have to ring any more to cancel the account if you register with this card on your xbox 360 console, your account will just revert to silver after the 12 months which is free.
    If you're buying this product for the first time I suggest you register a silver account on your xbox first to make sure that you can connect to the service. Just set up a silver account which is free to see if it works, and if you have a new xbox you will get a 1 month free trial to see if you like it.
    Defintely a must buy for any gamer, serious or just for fun!
