Is LIVE worth getting?

[MrMuscle]

Im pondering if i should get myself a year subscription to xbox LIVE.
What do you guys think? Is it worth it, and what exactly am i buying?

you are buying access to play xbox games on the net. Go to http://www.xbox.com/en-us/live/default.htm for info.

yes...and its more than that, content downloads(more levels,guns etc.etc). Broadband only, voice communication.

It's definetly worth $50 a year.

I wont buy a game now unless it's live enabled.

I have to agree. Definitely get live, once you do you will never go with out it. Online games are the best in my opinion.

You don't need live to play online, but it's much easer finding others who want to play. You can connect your xbox to the internet and just play with friends who have the same setup with out paying for live.

Yeah but it's limited games,no voice comm.(a must), no free downloads and lag.

No lag here, maybe if your on dialup.

are you guys aware of XLINK? http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/

It allows you to play system link games as if you were on live. Works great for halo/2, and its 100% free. You just run their software on a pc and the games show up under system link.

I just got LIVE a while back. Boy! I regret not getting this from first day it came out. Its so much fun. But you have to join an adult gaming website in order to play with adults bro. Because if you play with the little bastards that play on LIVE...your going to want to fucking kill them. They are fucking rude and ignorant and make LIVE a real bitch!

LIVE is the best thing I ever bought, which is sad.
