@ Operator 141 Microsoft wants non-Xbox Live players to buy Xbox Live. And even if not, they don't lose anything. They're not being held back on anything; they simply choose not to pay. If anything, this would be part of Microsoft's plan to promote Live services. PS: Hey Smuff, I thought Halo still belongs to Bungie, but Bungie just won't be partnered with Microsoft, which may mean Halo will branch off from its previous state as an Xbox exclusive. That's what I'm not quite sure, though.
