sounds familiar.. Thats what my wife's friend said after getting beaten numerous times by her boyfriend... Mike beats me even times he's drunk and steal money from my purse but I still roll from him though....
You're making excuses for them. If Microsoft would make those apps & features available to silver members, I'd seriously consider getting the next gen Xbox. But if not, I'm sticking with Sony again. I'm not paying extra for stuff that should be free.Can't afford $5 a month, go and enjoy netflix on your laptop
This chart explains it...Were any of the apps ever available for use for free? What can an XBox silver member do?
Thanks for the info...
And when it comes to the arcade/phone/PC stuff, I guess that will be cool...right now I don't have either of those things...but I guess that once I do, I might appreciate it a hell of a lot more.
I didn't like the current dashboard when it was first introduced...but once I started using "My Pins" (which is very similar to their Windows Phone stuff [gf had a Windows Phone]), it was pretty damn slick.
I just get a little worried when it seems like they focus more on multimedia and less on games...there's still plenty of room for improvement. Then again, with how slick the setup is now, no need to fix something that's not broken.
Hmm. Why would you have sold your Xbox breh? Looks like you're saying you enjoy PS3's games more than the 360 but the online infrastructure is holding you back :mjpls2:
That reminds me, they BETTER increase the damn friends list limit (only 100, after all this time, is a travesty), and let you pick and choose which types of notifications pop up...
Are you serious? Have you been paying attention to what MS has been promoting the past 2 years? Last year's E3 focused mainly on these apps.
And I'm actually someone who actually uses these apps much more than I play games on the console now.
ESPN and NBA League Pass is the only reason my Xbox gets turned on.
There are some pretty dumb mufukkaz out there... The point is that free apps like Hulu and Netflix shouldn't be behind the gold firewall

Like I explained in another post, there are reasons why you gotta pay for XBox Live.
I'd imagine they'd have to increase it significantly if they want to implement skype
What MS promotes and how I use my XBox is not related
For real though, unless you don't have cable, why would you use your XBox for League Pass or ESPN? Unless ESPN is not part of your Cable package and you're trying to skirt paying that extra money to include espn in your cable package. ESPN is part of a bigger sports package that you'll be missing out though and you won't get the same HD feed through your XBOX as you do through your cable provider. It's an extra few $ a month which is worth it if you're a sports fan.
which is one of the reasons why they probably used DDR3 vs GDDR5 since the former is more system ram vs graphics card ram. The "rumored' 3 gigs of the 8 going to the OS also makes sense if they are using a skype type setup.
