Well they're consistent anyway.

Very well said, DJ. It doesn't cost nearly that much, lazy. To get my X-Box online I needed an extra 100 feet of ethernet cable ($20) and a $50 X-Box Live starter kit, which comes with a year of service, two free games, and a headset. No keyboards, no mice. MS has it all figured out. Then I just needed to buy games that had online modes. It's as simple as that. Very cheap, and it really adds a lot to games. Why do you think EA's sports games sell so much better on PS2's than the Xbox and GC versions? Because they're only online-enabled on the PS2. When EA goes online on the X-Box you can bet your ass that sales will increase dramatically for the xbox ports.
