    Microsoft announced the price of the Xbox LIVE Gold subscription will increase for users in Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom and the United States starting November 1st 2010:


    Since launching Xbox LIVE in 2002 we have continually added more content and entertainment experiences for our members, while keeping the price the same. We're confident that when the new pricing takes effect, an Xbox LIVE Gold membership will continue to offer the best value in the industry.

    However, we do want to thank our loyal members and give you the opportunity to lock in your current price with an additional discount, so now would be a good time to renew your subscription.


    The prices change as follow (unlisted packages do not change in price):

    * USA
    1M Gold: $7.99 (now) - $9.99 (starting Nov 1, 2010)
    3M Gold: $19.99 (now) - $24.99 (starting Nov 1, 2010)
    12M Gold: $49.99 (now) - $59.99 (starting Nov 1, 2010)

    * UK
    1M Gold: 4.99 GBP (now) - 5.99 GBP (starting Nov 1, 2010)

    * Canada
    1M Gold: $8.99 CAD (now) - $9.99 CAD (starting Nov 1, 2010)

    I have a TV with a cable box for a reason. I pay for that. Now, I'm forced to pay more for stuff I won't use.

    Until the xbox has TV qualities the same as my cable box, I won't use it.

    Halo Reach mulitplayer might be the only reason to get this. That and being able to chat with friends. CoD Black Ops looks like every other CoD game that has already come out. Same grphics and everything.

    I might wait a bit before getting Live so soon.
