Might I say, I'm mighty jealous of those who can afford Multiplayer. Wish I could play it. Ever since the DEMO dropped, when they had free online multiplayer, I've actually kinda dug it. Too bad I'm piss poor and unemployed.
Afford it? It's free. So long as you have the game.
Did I forget to mention I have my copy for 360? Yeah... Microsoft is a douche.
For charging for online play and other services such as Netflix, Hulu, etc? Naw, dude. You just cheap.
But you have to pay for that Netflix and/or Hulu Plus subscription on top of the Xbox Live subscription.
So they're only charging for online play, which PS3 and PC give you
for free. (Assuming you pay for an internet connection, which the Xbox requires as well.) Which is his point.
My opinion is that, spread out, $5 a month really isn't that much considering it will give you multiplayer in any game you have that has the capability, you just have to save it up. *shrug*
People who whine about 5 dollars a month REALLY don't understand that 5 dollars isnt anything.
It's a gallon of gas. It's a cheap movie at Walmart, its a 24 pack of soda on sale.
And to be honest, XBL's online is A LOT better than PS3's, so I'm more than happy to pay ( even though I've never paid for it anyways. xD ).
My boyfriend and I each have a subscription, and we have it instead of cable, essentially, because it's honestly cheaper ($10 per month). The best bundle pack offer I got was an additional $20 per month on our internet bill.
And I just find all my TV shows (even some live Sports events) for free online, if I
really want to watch them. (Considering most of the time I just left it on Law & Order just for noise, there are few shows I go out of my way to watch in this manner.) Some of the sports events (I'm a big fan of my university's football team, that's pretty much all I keep track of) were also available to watch via XBL (ESPN) for free and that was nice.

Also, if you were on PS3, you wouldn't get the Victory/Commendation Packs or any of the fun special weekends. >.>
