XBL was just one of many stepping stones leading me to the glorious PC gaming master race. Guess I gotta be grateful that there was a bad enough service to turn me away from consoles.

Going into a depression because I have to pay extra money to play online.

Congrats.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Kivell Well, honestly, I would have never got XBL if it wasnt for Bungie.[/quote] Same here. I got the Halo 2/Live box set about 7-8 years ago for Christmas. Been playing Halo ever since. I feel a bit nostalgic for the time when Map packs became free after 6 or so months. What happened to that? Did Microsoft change their policy?
-
If it wasn't for Halo, I wouldn't be on LIVE.
-
I probably would have never bothered with anything online if it was not for Halo. So thank you Bungie.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] spartain ken 15 I get it, you made a thread in Mythic group and asked people about xbox live. Hey Deej, non Mythic members like xbox live too. [/quote] Only Mythic member opinions count.

I wonder if we'd be playing xbox live right now if it wasnt for halo 2 [Edited on 11.16.2012 6:39 AM PST]

XBL has completely changed my outlooking in gaming. I forever only played games for their content and could have cared less for online play. bought my first xbox and Reach my world changed forever. I'm now obsessed with new parts of games, but i'm still every bit as picky... Battlefield 3 was garbage to me, so I'm excited for a new Universe to play in next year!

Well, XBL actually has impacted my life. Before I got into online gaming, I was a hardcore solo player. Never was much for playing nicely with others. So when I finally decided to plug in the modem to the Xbox (after buying H3), I realized I was only reducing my own gaming experience by not being involved in online co-op or head-to-head games. Some of my really good friends I've met through Live and I'm glad that XBL has been a platform for like-minded people to get together and have some good times. So thanks for the great years so far XBL and hope that it's another awesome 10 years ahead of us.

Honestly, I don't think I would have become the gamer I am today without XBL.. It opened me up to online interactions with whole communities, got me interested in actually checking out the developers, and allowed me to sharpen and hone my skills much more so than I would have ever been able to with my small circle of friends. I'm pretty sure it was a Halo game that finally got me to subscribe to Xbox Live, but I am so glad I did, and I wish that I had been financially able to earlier :)

Damn, it's been quite the journey hasn't it?

Halo 2 was the reason I got XBL.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Kivell Well, honestly, I would have never got XBL if it wasnt for Bungie.[/quote]Same; I wanted to play Halo 3 with some friends I'd made on IRC and driving some 1,500+ miles to hang out with the nearest one wasn't a practical option, and hopping a plane to England even less so.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] American Recoil Guess I wasn't good enough for the Mail Sack.. :( Guess I'll just copy what I posted in the thread in the Mythix group:[/quote] [quote]Xbox Live introduced me to two of my five or so closest friends I have today. I know one of them in person, and I will soon be meeting the other. These friends have shaped who I am and made me a better person. It's gained me a pen-pal from Britain, with whom I regularly share ideas and philosophies. It awakened my inner competitive gamer. It introduced me to the communities, such as this one, that love the games they play just as much as I do. In short, I would be a lot less confident and social without Xbox Live.[/quote]

Ive only been on live for 4 wow. It feels like a long time.

Guess I wasn't good enough for the Mail Sack.. :( Guess I'll just copy what I posted in the thread in the Mythix group:[quote]I am a long time gamer. From the days I was around 7 to when I was 11 I would play regular games on my Playstation and N64. I discovered Xbox Live when I was playing Halo CE and every aspect of gaming has changed for me. From Halo Wheelmen in Halo 3 to joining the VFL on Madden 12, the communities I have discovered and the people I have met have made my experiences and memories all the better. Xbox Live is definitely one of my cornerstones and it helps me keep up with some close friends now that I'm in college.[/quote]
