Comments on: Get a 13-month Xbox Live Gold subscription for $39.99 shipped

Newegg's deal saves you 10 bucks on a 12-month subscription card (with one bonus month). No rebates, no hassles, just a solid offer for Xbox fans.

Screw it, Playstation Network is free. $40 or $50 makes no difference when the vast majority of XBox Live's Arcade content is dreck to begin with. The 360 suffers from the same problem that the PS2 did at the height of its popularity, everyone wants to make games for it and you have to dig through hundreds of games to find the one or two gems for games that stand out.

Pay $450 for the console and $60 for the game and they expect you to pay $50 to play it online? Playstation has it right. FREE. XBL is a joke. Even after you pay $50 you still have to pay for stuff like maps and crap. And $5 for an arcade game I played 25-30 years ago? Those games should free for my $50. Seriously $5 for Pac-Man? Sorry maybe $1 each.

wow, so to BCF above me...

- 450 for a system? if you want the elite, which very few want. The system is currently only 300

- 60 Dollars for the game? if you get brand new games, yes. and its the exact same price for games as the ps3. actually the ps3 games are often more expensive than the Xbox games, as the Xbox has been around longer!

- 50 Dollars for Xbox Live? Yep. and that is 13 months of Xbox live. and you get a free month when you sign up, so 14 months for 50. though I got my 13 month card for only 40 bucks. Which is UNDER 3$ A MONTH! Considering the online games are much better than ps3's (Halo, Gears of War) and the XBL set up demolishes PS3's, I'll go Xbl easy.

Please tell me that you meant the 360 was out longer than the PlayStation... Please....

And the only reason that Xbox games are 'better' than the ps3 ones is because Microsoft steals them all FROM the ps3; excluding Halo and Gears of War, which both, in my opinion, are gonna suck once Killzone 2 comes out.

While you may go XBL over PSN any day, You're going to end up wasting a lot of money on unnecessary things, like the arcade and extra maps as stated earlier.

Yeah and you pay by credit card which equals interest that makes up for the $10.00 you so called saved.
