Expect an announcement at E3. Looks like EA and Microsoft have sorted out their differences which can only be a good thing for Xbox Live.
Oh and there's a large possibility of getting Timesplitters 3 on Xbox Live for 2005.
Woohoo!

Yep
Christmas possible main LIVE game = Counter Strike.
January's biggest offline game = Mafia.
EA big LIVE announcement = Battlefield 1942 (long over due)
All very old PC games, hardly a selling point.
The big Xmas game was Project Gotham 2. This years main games will be Halo 2, Fable, Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Prince of Persia, Ninja Gaiden, Sudeki etc etc
The PC ports are just nice extras and not supposed to be system sellers. The majority of console owners won't have played a lot of the PC ports anyway so it's a good chance to get hold of them without having to shell out for a PC and pair of jam-jar glasses.
a) aren't cretins and are decent people
b) won't tolerate cretins, and therefore will boot them if necessary
I very often go into rooms, and come straight back out, once the little gobshites have opened their mouths, and it becomes apparent that playing them will be as much fun as spending a night with Jade Goody.
I wonder who that's referring too.....
Sure there's a lot of cox, but there's also a lot of sound people on Live. Let's face it, we weren't exactly the most friendly group of people ourselves....specially when Americans found their way into our games.
Anyway, laughing at geeks is part of the fun of Live.
Seriously though, I really don't have problems with Live. I do find it better than PC gaming.
Foul mouthed cretins? Mute them.
As for being kicked off a server, its only happened to me 3 or 4 times. The only problems that I have are being totally outclassed. Which is you know obviously hypothetical.
