Sounds like a good reason not to bother with an xbox to me.

to be honest pc gaming isnt really as cheap as console gaming.
ok
u by x box £250 then use it for 5 years, play all the latest games until u by the next gen console.
x box live = £35 a year x 5 = £175
total cost = £425
by gaming pc = £900 plus u have to upgrade to play the latest games near enough every year.
if your really into online pc gaming it cost over a £1000 a year on top of any pc you have bought.
and please no one mention that online is free with ps3 because psn as awful
