Seems like a good deal to me when you consider how robust it is and fact that it's a lot easier to get all your friends in the same game (when compared to the PSN). Also, downloads take ages on the PSN, so it's "free" but also inferior to the Live. I'm not saying everyone should get the 360 version of any game but for me, having paid my dues, I'm always going to get the 360 versions for the better online. The fact that the 360 games usually run slightly better is just the icing on the cake. Good point on the reviews but is there a better way to decide what games to buy? I probably put too much faith in them but with limited time / money I don't want to take a chance on a game that might be rubbish. This does mean that there's a lot of good games I miss out on as tend to play it safe and go for the top rated games. Gold works out at 77p / week if you pay full price for it.
