Yeah, but doesn’t that cost you 30 euros for a lame game and a headset, when u can get a month trial for a £5 then buy a 2nd hand old xbox headset for £7. That comes to £12.

Either way - It’s worth it!!

I would do it more wisely. Buy an old Live with a game for the old xbox (and a headset included for the old box) in The Netherlands I bought Ralli Sport Challenge 2 with 12 months Live and the Communicator Headset for 29,95 Euro.

Set it on your old xbox, then upgrade Live to the 360 and you know what? You can play for 12 months with 2 consoles on Live for only 30 Euro’s!

Why doesn’t this surprise me? MS are just cheating us Europeans very badly indeed.
But Seth has a very good point, if you have a 360 (like me) and have a capable ROUTER, then do it, just choose the £5 (or what ever currency you have) a month option…don’t like it - cancel it. I’ve had Xbox-live for 3 years now, I love it!
