I am new to the Xbox scene. I have played Xbox stuff, but never used Live. Is there any reason to pay for Gold?
By the way, not into multiplayer online gaming.

Re: Why Xbox Gold
You just answered your own question. There's other perks, but they're not worth it if you're not going to play online (I don't blame you).wclem wrote:I am new to the Xbox scene. I have played Xbox stuff, but never used Live. Is there any reason to pay for Gold?

If I recall right you need Gold for Netflix or if you want the ESPN stuff.wclem wrote:I am new to the Xbox scene. I have played Xbox stuff, but never used Live. Is there any reason to pay for Gold?

Re: Why Xbox Gold
Gold allows you --
- to access online gaming;
- to access the "deal of the week" discounts;
- to access netflix;
- to access ESPN;
- to access the Facebook/Twitter applications;
- to access certain demos.
I don't buy into it either (nor do I play online), and I haven't really felt I've missed anything.

Re: Why Xbox Gold
Xbox Live Gold is only worth it for online multiplayer and Netflix streaming but otherwise Silver will suffice your needs.

Re: Why Xbox Gold
Everyone covered pretty much everything, ll I have to add is that if you do have Netflix the 360 client is by far the best on consoles. I've been using the PS3 one since I let my Gold subscription expire and it sucks in comparison.
