Re: Xbox Live
Definitely get yourself an Xbox Live Gold subscription. I couldn't live without mine. Playing Gears of War co-op online is just too awesome. To be honest, there aren't a ton of games I've played since then haven't been half as fun as playing Gears but Halo 3 is pretty good, too.
Only problem I have with Xbox Live Gold is that, and it isn't the services' fault, certain games that I love playing, such as: Burnout Revenge, Splinter Cell Double Agent, Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, Team Fortress 2, etc, don't have a whole lot of people playing on them.
However, if you like Call of Duty 3, Rainbow Six: Vegas, Halo 3 and Gears of War then you're in luck. There's like a zillion people playing those games online at any given time.

speaking of gold membership, im gona be joining the priemiem members list as soon as my debit card comes through
Cool! Thanks a lot, ctj! Just a quick question before I steer this thread too far into the wrong direction: Which bank or building society are you getting a debit card from? If you haven't already, be sure to check out Nationwide or Lloyds TSB if you haven't already - they're both just great. Lloyds TSB are really lenient if you are overdrawn and Nationwide has a great online Flexi and e-Savings setup.
And just to brag: When I got my Nationwide Gold credit card at the age of 20, the staff at Nationwide told me I was the youngest person to ever qualify for their gold card. Something which is reserved for people with very high income and generally way over the age of... 20. That was cool. Their eyes light up every time I go into my local Nationwide branch, too. Hehe.
K, I'm done.
Get Xbox Live Gold. You'll love it. ^_^
But, then again, Call of Duty 3 might be doing quite nicely in the online multiplayer department, too. You never know!
