After receiving a Nintendo Wii for xmas (which I feel is the superior system)I decided to cancel my Xbox Live subscription and sell my360 to a friend. So I called the Xbox hotline and the woman I spoke to said she would cancel the automatic renewal that usually takes effect once your membership runs out. But that sounds a little sketchy to me... Why can't they just delete my account entirely?

Should I be concerned about this, oris cancelling the automatic renewal the same thing as cancelling the account entirely?

The wii is not the superior system, i got one at launch i played through zelda and loved it but after that i haven't found any games on it that are worth playing (god know's how people can like SMG), you are making a huge mistake and besides you should only get rid off a console if you are going to use it to help pay towards a better one(and only if you have no other choice) which is impossible because the 360 IS the best console.

Wii is a fun console but gaming ability, they don't compare.

I'm sure you'll regret this.. But on topic. Don't worry they'll sort it, Live is tough atm they have alot of things to sort out, just be patient.

She stopped XBL Gold from being renewed for your profile, she did not delete the profile itself. If you want you can delete your profile from the HDD.

Just keep them both man. I agree the Wii is kind of a cool console, but it just seems crazy to me to give up on such an amazing lineup of games that the 360 has to offer. Nintendo is the only publisher that makes anything good for the Wii. Are you just going to play Nintendo games the next 5 years?

I got a Wii last Christmas. It showed me nothing. I sold it on Ebay with 3 games for 375.00 USD. None of their games interested me.

Xbox Live has the screwiest cancelation policey. There's no way to just delete your account. As for trading in your wii, it is a mistake. The great games on the Wii are better than most 360 games, but they're rare. Mario Galaxy, Zelda, Wii Sports, and Paper Mario are all amazing. Rayman Raving Rabbits is a sweet party game. But beyond that there's little to play and they can't sustain a true gamer for too long. Keep both systems and you're set for the current gen.

I appreciate all of the feedback guys, even though only three of you actually addressed my issue. lol. Call of Duty 4 is the only game I truly love for the Xbox, and to me it seems silly to own a system just for one game. The Wii, on the other hand, has a bunch of games that I adore such as Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, not to mention the game that is sure to be nominated for Game of the Year for 2008: Smash Bros Brawl.
