You work for Microsoft Biggles ?
I'd argue the world just got a lot more divided, personally, and larger, not smaller. A criticism of Live is that there is no community, not like on these forums. Sure, we all biatch at each other and stuff, but generally everyone gets along and helps people who want help. Not so on Live.

Motogp2
I'm not giving up yet, Phantasy Star has been orderd and I'm changing to a router connection for convenience, plus OXM have detailed new changes to the system, such as a lobby chat room, and other stuff.
I'll be on Live in about a months time, i'll be getting SOF 2, Wolfenstein and most likely Midtown Madness 3.
I expect to be meeting up with some of you people so I can give you a right royal ass whooping....or maybe the other way round.

If you're losing faith in Xbox Live then get Phantasy Star Online. This makes for absolutely fantastic online play and is definitely worth the £5.95 a month you have to pay after 60 days.
Hadfix's post applies to me too. I'm desperate to get on Live. I would love it and I don't see your problem. Mute people if they are annoying and build a friends list with sound people.
Host games with set ups you like and invite people in from your friends list who you know are good for a laugh and wont muck about. Good online gaming then awaits as far as I can see.
Why don't you use this site as a notice board for live games? Say when you all want to meet up(online) and have a huge SR online Moto GP race or Wolfenstine battle. I can't belive it hasn't been done yet.
