Many times I've looked across the water and thought "hey, why am I paying $50.00 a year for something the other guy is getting for free?" and then stuff like this happens and I go...."oh yeah" lol.
Look, I'm not a fanboy or anything. I don't give a rats you know what about which console you like. Games are games and we're all brothers imo. But if you're REALLY serious about gaming, you need XBL. Yes, it sucks having to pay for it but I mean, if something like this bothers you alot and you're that passionate, it's probably worth it.
Or, you could just give it up all together, get a Wii and play some mini games with your grandmother.
