While Sony provides this online servuce for free at the moment for the Playstation 3, Micorsoft has put a MSRP of $49.99 on their online service. Voice chat is great because while playing a game, you can talk to your friend without having to use your cellphone minutes. With Xbox Live, you can now play that game against people all over the world for 100s of hours if you like. Every game played online has voice chat enabled. For instance if you bought Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, the single player campaign is only 6-8 hours long. Pretty short for a game that is costing you $60. Xbox Live is Microsoft's online service for the Xbox 360. Just pick your friend out from friend list and start chatting.While Live is great, there is a major problem that parents should know.
Now I play mostly Mature rated games so I assume this is not a problem for kid games, but it is an issue that parents need to know. You do not even need to be playing the same game to chat which is great. Always be sure to check the ESRB ratings found in front of games before buying.Live is a great feature that is definitely worth paying for so keep your eyes open for when retailers like Amazon have these cards on sale. Here you can buy Xbox Live Arcade games like Bejeweled, download demos of games released or soon to be released for free, rent/buy movies, buy DLC content for you games, etc. Though recently, retialers have been discounting these cards $10-20 off so keep your eyes open for a good deal.Xbox Live's main function is that it allows you to play the games you bought online, if the feature is included. This can lead to some players being complete jerks where they will use foul, vile language that is not suitable for kids.
In essence, Live can extend the life of a game pretty dramatically.Another cool feature is the access to Microsoft's Marketplace. Also Live has a ton of community features like Facebook, Last.fm, Twitter, friend list and voice chat. I guess some players find it funny to talk like sailors, but it can get very offensive. See you online.
This is a great value and one of the cheapest i can find. will probably be buying from Amazon again if it stays this cheap. item arrived quickly and had no issues.
Best deal to buy if you use Live a lot. The best deal your gonna find. Amazon ships it fast and free from tax. Comes with the bonus month and is the cheapest in the long run. Recommend to those who play on Live a lot.
This is the best buy you can find on this card and you get a bonus month. I have recommended it alot.
Fast delivery and easy. I highly recommend Amazon to firstcomers, it never fails with products
