I'd like it if when I got my console back from a warranty exchange, that all my XBLA games would freaking work on the replacement console! It's not acceptable that non-primary profiles can no longer access the full games, or that the primary account MUST be connected to Live to play.

I called 1-800-4MYXBOX. Their answer? If I can connect to Live, they don't do anything. If I can't, they would normally provide enough points to repurchase the games - but they're out of points now and can't do that? OUT OF POINTS? WTF!? Isn't that like the bank being out of money?

Viridium, Keep calling untill you get a rep who will help you. Your box failed under warranty - they have to fix this.

I had the same problem. I coudn't access many of my arcade titles or Oblivion content that my wife bought and vice versa. They hooked me up with enough points to get all my content fixed.

This is their problem - they need to fix it.

#4, Live is coming to Vista this year.

I've always assumed that Microsoft's acquisition of in-game ad company Massive was to do an ad-supported version of Live.

Not really an enhancement to Live - but enforcing clan support for all xbox live enabled games would be a HUGE plus that many have asked for.

What happen to silver membership's weekend online gaming for free? That was their first year plan. That would help sell more systems but less gold memberships.

5. No, Xbox Live should not be free.

Look at PS2's online or worst of all Nintendo's online (I'm sorry Nintendo, but it sucks).

They are just two examples of how a free online service will never work. Besides, the yearly fee is used to make Xbox Live as great as it is.

Free web browsing would be nice. If not, add it free to gold members only. A new look dash with tabs that has life to it. Expanding, moving, or floating thumbnails and gamertags. An interface that says "cool".

Faster Xbox Guide/Dashboard access, at least on my 360 its kind of slow. Also I concur with Post #11 a option where I could chose to play with my own age group; or at least play M rated games with players they are made for. Don’t know if its possible but it would be really sweet if like the hosts for multiplayer could give the clients the ability to hear the custom tracks the host is or may be playing.

I think that a customizable dashboard (not just pictures, but arrangement of tabs and menus as well as themes) along with web browsing (keyboard/mouse support) and a more selective matchmaking process (inputs for age brackets, gamerscores, etc.) would really take Xbox Live to the next level.
