I've been seeing so many complaints saying that you'll get a PC or PS3 and dump your 360 by the time Microsoft raises the price of Xbox Live. If you actually go through with it, that only shows how simple minded a portion of you are.
The reality is YOU brought this on yourselves by paying for $15 map packs and titles that are only 3 hours long
and horse armor of all things! (Don't believe me? Go look up the Bethesda sales chart, it continues to sell to this very day!) Paying for a service that should have been free to begin with, at least the multiplayer portion.
Buying a console that has gone trough at-least 2 revisions a year and a major redesign (Along with overpriced accessories) that still manages to break. All of this shows how willing you are to Microsoft and every major publisher in the industry to give them your money. All you've done is slowly cut your own throats by showing that they can raise prices and you'll still pay, so don't complain because the only one at fault is the person in the mirror.
You've let Microsoft take years old technology that have been available on PCs, restrict the functions that can be preformed, and charge people for it (like just the simple ability to be able to play a game online). Then slowly add in "advanced features" (like 8 person chat and the ability to use thumbdrives in your USB ports) and charge extra for things a large majority of users have stated they don't like and/or use.
I decided years ago before the raise in price for Live I would never pay for such a thing. Anyone that is old enough to know how MS operates should have known that eventually they would screw the customer over once again when they felt they had leverage. Again. Like they always have.
P.S.
Don't even start the whole "But 60 dollars in nothing" argument you've been using for years. You obviously operate on an "I can afford it" structure rather than the principle.
