Poll: Free XBox Live Gold For Life, Would you take it?

[Neeko Masochist]

Now, picture this, it's 10 years into the future and fanboys rule the gaming industry. Your one of a small minority of casual gamers who tries to stay clear of going online. You get a knock on the door, you open it, there are cameras everywhere and Bill Gates comes out to congratulate you on winning a competition for free XBox Live Gold time for LIFE. That's right, for LIFE. For you and 4 of your friends.

Now you're in a complete dilemma, none of your mates ever play online any more due to the amount of fanboys hogging the internet and gaming communities. You can't play one game together without fanboys jumping into your game, spouting crap, spamming the chat and yacking their heads of about you cheating because you kill them. Oh, how annoying...even writing this is annoying. (1)Also, imagine that Microsoft had removed the private games ability to "Promote a closer, friendlier community."

An XBox Live Gold account for you and 4 friends, free for LIFE. Would you take it? :]

I hope it's okay posting something like this i this forum, I'm new. >.>

It's like that already, so yes I'd take it.

I have the half a brain required to set up a private game, so yes....

 

[Neeko Masochist]

Okay then smarty pants, imagine that Microsoft had removed the private games ability to "Promote a closer, friendlier community."

Now answer.

 

[zacaron]

i would take it...

and if i didnt like it because of all the fan boys i would sell my account on ebay and get a bidding war with the fanboys.

 

[MindBullets]

Might as well.

Hooray for the mute button! Also, the cries of "Oh My God! Haxxor! Argh! *sobs*" are what drive me to get another headshot.

Haha, that's the best sentence I have read all day! Why not just listen to them crying and sobbing from all the headshots? lol

 

[rayman 101]

I'd probably won't be playing games by that time, but thanks to the glorious mute button of halo 3, I'd take with a 100% positive attitude!

Allow me to correct myself. Hooray for the mute button, until I want to hear the sobs and cries of 'Haxx0r!'

Well, I would take it, assuming it was free. I own a 360 and I refuse to pay for an online service that can't even do friggin' dedicated servers with admin tools, something that has been around in online gaming for years before LIVE.

 

[Break]

Don't be silly. If Bill Gates was at my front door while the online service was like that, I'd slap him in the face, and tell him to stop being a wanker and give us our private servers back. THEN I'd take the free Gold for life.

I'm guessing that you're nobody's *****, then.

*whaps break* How much do i have to hit you before you do right!?
Thats better *****

But yeah id take it, the fanboys are lulz worthy, and id set up a match with a 5-6 player limit lol

 

[Gooble]

I'd take it because I should just host games with private slots.

If this wasn't possible however, I'd still take it and take the piss out of all the fanboys with no real lives to play in.

 

[Jumplion]

It would be rude not to take it, so i'll be curtious and say to Bill "I don't have your Xbox360"

 

[fix-the-spade]

Take it, take and quietly sell your account to a fan boy for lots of money, because it'll still be a saving in the long run.

 

[Sennz0r]

Hell I'd take it, I love hearing those pre-pubescent fuckbags whose balls haven't dropped yet complaining about how I killed them while they supposedly have these 1337 sniping skills. I always laugh heartily directly into my mic whenever that happens.
Plus if you've grown out of online gaming you can always sell it for loads of cash, stupid fanboys.

 

[qbert4ever]

Hell ya. Plugged in headset + Volume turned down all the way = No need for mute button, and fun games ahead.
