This is something my grandson asks for every year. He is very happy with this product, and he feels like it is worth the money spent on it. He is an avid gamer along with his brother, and they like being able to play with friends that don't live in the area. They have one friend that lives overseas and they get together and play fairly often.

After a long hiatus I am back on Xbox Live, and the Games with Gold and Deals with Gold are very nice bonuses. The price is worth it, but at the same time PS only charges 50, and I honestly don't see that much of a difference between the 2. Either way, if you play online, this is a must, and I've never bought less than a year at a time. Best bang for your buck right here, and by the end, you can have a ton of free games so it all works out great.

If you utilize the streaming features of Xbox, you need this subscription. I'm not a fan of being forced to subscribe to something in order to utilize other items I already pay for elsewhere (Like Netflix and Amazon Streaming services) but it becomes a little more useful when you consider that you get a couple free games every month as well. Often one of the games isn't desirable to play or worth buying but there are at least a half dozen decent games each year. It's too bad they don't include warranty coverage as an option, that would be worth a little extra to me.

I like using this cause I receive 2 games a month and it's a great way to interact with others around the world .... And again U got to love free games

Quick, easy purchase. Easy to redeem and play. It is worth getting the 12 months rather than paying each month for the service.
