Uno, it probably is.

But I even though wishing it was free or less in cost is greedy, I still wish it was free or less in cost.

On the other hand though that would be bad for the Xbox people, or Microsoft or whoever runs this thang.

The thing is, Microsoft doesn't NEED more money.
Seriously, you know how much they make an hour because everyone is buying a computer? A lot of money. They could at least lower the 3 month card a little.

OOOOOOOOOOOHH, I never thought of that either. That is also very true. This is getting to be a very good debate.=P

Yes. Because Microsoft is like...totally rich, while Sony and Nintendo(They'll be gone soon enough) are not as rich, and still the better profit.

So the Xbox Live price is way too much? Or priced just right?

Cause Xbox Live could cost just the right amount for its worth, but still be expensive.

While I feel Microsoft is going a bit over the top with the $50 a year, you can't really argue with the service they're giving.

Although with Microsoft in the heated console war, they really should lower the price. Perhaps more Silver members would make the move over to Gold.

Yes, it does. Now, I don't own an Xbox, but I know Wii's Wi-Fi and PS3's online are FREE! Xbox Live costs $4, but it may be worth it.

I don't think you guys who have said it costs too much have ever played Xbox Live with your friends. You can't understand how great it is untill you pull an all-nighter with Xbox Live. It is so amazing, you wouldn't believe it! I don't have an Xbox 360, but I wish I did just for online play. It would be worth it if I had enough money. Talking to people, discussing tactics, getting rankings, and with online, no game is ever the same! You know what I mean if you have been playing team brawls and notice a person on the other team with really high %, but your partner just keeps attacking the guy with below 50% damage. Its tough to explain without playing Xbox Live!

Exactly, Xbox live is worth it. ;D

It's really not that much, IMO.
