Why Xbox Live is Worth the Price
Microsoft's Xbox 360 has been going head to head with Sony's PlayStation 3 since the beginning of this generation. So far Microsoft's Xbox 360 has come out on top, and Microsoft's success is at least partly due to the success of Microsoft's paid online service, Xbox Live.

Unfortunately for gamers, Microsoft decided to make Xbox Live $50 a year for a gold membership (which is needed to play online as well as use many other premium features). When Sony decided to provide online for PlayStation 3 gamers for free, their service was so inferior anyone used to Xbox Live could hardly consider it. Nowadays Sony's PlayStation Network has made great strides in catching up to Xbox Live, and so gamers must ask themselves: Is Xbox Live worth the money?
