Mandatory XBL membership ... wait to they mention silver is no longer free. Mind you Bungie/Activision are doing the same thing with Destiny ... didn't see too much rage about that idea when it got aired. And with the game it basically becomes useless as new DLC or editions get released, at least the console will last longer than 3 months. (unless you like wondering around alone in your virtual world whilst everyone else moves on to the newly release map space)
