Anyone else get the LIVE email?
Damn microsoft is raising the Live subscription fees on Nov 1st...greedy bastards.
1-Month Gold Subscription $7.99 to $9.99
3-Month Gold Subscription $19.99 to $24.99
12-Month Gold Subscription $49.99 to $59.99
The email looks legit and if you scroll down the email they're offering a "price lock" until Oct 31st...39.99 for a 12 month. In the fine print it says it doesn't lock shit though. After the 12 months it'll renew at the then current price...fuckers. So pretty much they're forcing everyone to renew early and the 3 month guys to buy a 12 month...shit why not it's only $15 more.
Least they're finally adding ESPN

He knows what i'm talking aboot he's just being Iroc
And hell no adding some content doesn't justify the price hike...most of the content will probably be fee based like on-demand ESPN pay per view crap. I think they're just shooting themselves in the foot and giving more ammo for the PS3 fanboys.

I had my account taken away for using a trainer someone else made and hacking shit out of cod, and had to get a new one. Therefore, I'm cooler than you.

Has't the 1 year always been $59.99? IDK I have mine on auto pay. Although it is kinda lame if there raising the price $60 is still a deal for the hours and hours of game play you get.
