Gaming Hub contributor Koreginald dishes on why he has finally decided to not renew Xbox Live Gold
Online multiplayer is back for 11 more games thanks to Insignia's XBL 1.0 replacement service running on Original Xbox consoles and the Xemu emulator on PC. Multiplayer, voice chat, leaderboards, etc. have been a monthly addition for many games from Xbox's past library thank to the team at Insignia.live! The 11 new games are now playable online once again after 13+ years.
Booo!! I was hoping that was Rainbow Six: Black Arrow...Boo!! again. I thought this coming to Xbox. I don't even read it I was so excited.
Has everyone completely forgotten Blinx?
Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own
Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!
Without a doubt, one of our highlights from EGX Rezzed 2016 was Table Top Racing. It was almost a classic love tale…”As soon as we locked eyes… (enter mushy crap here…)” – We think you get the picture. It just reminded us of a time where gaming was much less complicated and way more colourful, however at the time the game was only due to be released on the PS4… That’s not a bad thing. It just mean’t that being my primary console of choice is Xbox One, we wouldn’t get to play this any time soon as the majority of my games and friends reside in the Microsoft ecosystem – so when we got word this was getting a release on Xbox One, we immediately put our hands up and said “Yes, Please!”.
I see this guy's point. Other services I use are "catching up," if you will, and making it harder and harder to justify the soon-to-be $60 price of live. Just like the author, the bulk of the features I use most on Live as a Gold subscriber are available on PSN or Steam for free.
Oh well...loving Halo Reach
already pay 60 dollars so it's nothing new for us. I wish i can say no more Xbox live, but you know how it is....
$60 a month for live? hell I could get cable TV for a month or even pay my internet/phone bill with that...
WHO CARES YOU WON'T BE MISSED. XBL IS BIGGER AND BETTER.
I enjoyed this article and made the same decision when my account expired early September. If Live were free, I'd be in gaming heaven but for now, you'll find me on PSN and PC.
