Xbox Live: What Are We Paying For?

[Clownilingus]

For the past couple of hours, I've been trying to get onto CoD4 and get the new maps. However, it won't let me download the updates for the game and the Market Place wouldn't come up (I was told to try again later). I've checked my internet connection, and everything tests out normal. Right now I'm pissed off because my friends can get on fine, but I won't let me.

That being said, I still think the Live service is currently the best and is worth paying for. I think they could stand to charge a little less, especially since the company already makes such large profits. But I still like it overall.

Over 100,000 people are trying to get to those maps. Thats why your having trouble. You should have stayed up like me

I like xbox live, I think its worth the price tag seeing as how I have no plan on coughing up the $1000 dollar investment for a PS3 or the $300 dollar upgrade for my PC I'll just stick with my Xbox named Clarice.

It took a couple of hours to download, but I finally got it.

You named your 360 too? I've been trying to think up a good name for mine, but nothing comes to mind.

Just look at it and call it the first name that comes to your head.

Or just name it Vera. That's what I named my guitar. I call her Vera.

Fire Daemon, I looked at it, but nothing came to mind.

Vera? I like the name, but for some reason I consider my 360 'masculine'...probably because I say and do things near it that I would want no woman to have to see/hear...plus my friend and I used to hang out and play with it, so I considered it 'one of the guys'.

I'm sure I'll come up with a name, but it might take a while.

name it Steve.

I personally dont mind paying for XBL, compared to PSN and the Wii's online capabilities I feel like Im paying for a better service.

Its true there are alot of morons on XBL but thats hardly Microsoft's fault. I bought a years subscription for 30 GBP on ebay which came with an additional free month. So thats under 3 GBP a month, Im not really gonna lose sleep over it.

...And I though I was alone in naming my Xbox 360. Her name is Hystaene.
