5 days?
thats it!

i have been paying for LIVE for the past 2 years and have been tempted to quit sine im playing online less and less often
so they decide to be nice and give 5 days free?
BULLSHIT
i still have to pay for the month anyway
why not just make it free for feck sake
im sure they make more than enough money without it

then again for just $5 a month.......its worth every penny

beggars want to be choosers but the truth is they aren't and never will be.

We shouldn't have to pay for online on a gaming console. It's like paying to use Mozzila Firefox.

All you should have to have is Broadband. That's it. But no, Microsoft are money-hungry bastards. Their online service is okay but damn dude I have maybe one good game for live but even then it's boring after 15 minutes.

So no-thanks microsoft, I think I'll play Team Fortress 2 or Left4Dead WITHOUT FEES on my PC.


Prepare for unforeseen consequences.

WOW, five days to play on the new GTA expansion. Oh wait, GTA4 wasn't great and online was worse. Oh well, some people will have fun I guess.

lol i was just simply mocking the IGN article title.

But you gotta admit 5 whole days of free live is about a cheep as you can get. it's kind sad doing the math on it. I guess if you multiply 5 free days by the number of 360 owners its a lot but still to the average xbox liver, a whole 20 cents worth of a discount isn't much to go crazy over.
