Posted by TheChrisD on Monday the 7th of January, 2008 at 4:39:07am UTC

Are the Live services really worthwhile? With Xbox Live getting frequent issues, and me never trying most Windows Live services, it’s time I went and found out…

I soooo want to go home to my college dorm! Being away from my 360 is so difficult right now. All I have to keep me going are the weekly EVO MOHAA nights…
