I'll be honest, since they patched 99% of account files that could be used for Free XBL Gold, I'll be stuck paying for it. I mean, the PS3 Blows, I know too much about the 360 to learn a different system, **** it.

Wait, what? Account files could never be used for free Xbox Live gold. Every gold account that anyone has ever touched (except Microsoft and related) was paid for.
Also how many predictions is Patcher really trying to make here. I'll see it like every week or two, another one of his "crazy" predictions about how things are going to be, BUT THEY NEVER HAPPEN. See what Patcher doesn't realize is Microsoft is generally smarter than him. If they continued the trend of trying to milk more money, the Xbox 360 arcade would still be $300. He defeats his OWN logic about xbox live gold. The idea is to hook every gamer to want to come and play on the xbox 360, buy the services, buy the games. If Microsoft were to double the price of their services, then not only would they lose a good bit of their userbase (PSN is free, computer gaming is free, people will find cheaper alternatives), but they will also lose a great share of the people who haven't yet come on board.

My cousin has some ****ed up account that I'm assuming had to be a credit card glitch because he had xbox live for 4 months after the credit card was canceled and the account wasn't renewed. The account was never closed until that 4months was paid for or anything. He just got 4 months for free and he didn't understand why.....but that 100$ **** is gay. I'd go to PC or playstation.
