Quote:Who, exactly, is going to pay $50 a year just to play against someone who's playing on an Xbox360?
But wait, you get three other benefits too! ... whatever TrueSkill matchmaking is, that is... and what do they mean by '* Multiplayer matchmaking with friends'? Ah, can't you play with people you know without paying $50? Yes, I'm sure that there's a way that you can do that...
... but you get multiplayer achievements, so people who want more GamerScore will pay, I guess...

No, PC-to-PC multiplayer is free (Silver).
