I read something of a website that is linked to bungie.net that said that you are going to have to pay for xbox live on the xbox 360. It said that there is different packages. You can buy subscriptions online iwth a credit card or you can go to a store. Which buying them at the store is more money. But back to the different packages. Each package has different limitations. Each are different. I wouldnt reccomend the basic.

All I heard of is that the very basic version of Xbox Live is free. But that's just stuff like news and stuff if you hook it up. The next package is the Xbox Live we all know and love with online gaming, headset, and a cam. I havn't heard of any other packages or if it costs more in stores though. I hope not. The 360 is already pretty pricey for me.

dude, you pulled a jesus!

As far as I know (unless they've changed the information), there are 2 versions:* Siver- free and comes with basic components (friends list, news, chats with Gold members, and you can play MMORPGs...)* Gold- every component you have now plus video chat and other things. It will probably be a little more expensive than it is now (+$10 at the max), but it's worth it.
