supose they have to make pay live more attractive, makes sense really as bandwidth costs money.

[MartyG]

Can't really understand why they'd lock out silver members from a promotional trailer that's there to try and get you to buy the game - I know not being able to get trailers wouldn't make me want to upgrade ...

If PS3's online content like this turns out to be free to everyone, it's going to make Microsoft look very cheap.

[Yoshimax]

But it's still free to silver members it's just they'll have to wait a bit longer to see them !

Fair enough I think - I'm funding the service after all.

Map Pack 2 for PDZ out early november (next friday?)
Cost=Free
2 new (old) levels.
FACILITY AND RUIN.
Not new but remakes of 2 original maps and they are free.

Facility would be awesome! Haven't played PD0 in ages but I would love to play that.

What's this about a Halo3 faceplate and free theme ? Anybody got the theme ? I'm tempted to just pay the points for it sounds awesome !

[Kubrick]

Doesn't look like it - unless MS and co start pulling their finger out, they're not going to hit their target for XBLA game numbers for year end.

There is a Kameo Uno deck though for 150 points. Woo hoo, etc.

[SUMIRE]

They need to start flooding Live arcade with titles, whats currently up there in relation to how long 360LIVE has been...LIVE is piss poor.

Strange....I didn't see a price beside it & when I tried to download it I got a message to say I'd already done so. Was asked if I wanted to download it again (which I did) & haven't been charged for it

MS said they were aiming for 50 titles in XBLA by the end of the year. There are currently 34 titles available, and 9 weeks till the end of the year, so 1.78 titles need to be released a week to hit that
