Happy Birthday to Xbox Live!

By: GamingAngel

Xbox Live

Today is Xbox Live’s birthday! That’s right, the service on the Xbox 360 is now 7 years old. The service has gone through many changes, every time re-inventing itself. Next week Xbox Live gets another update where Gold users get access to Facebook, Twitter, and Last.FM. Inside Xbox is getting a makeover and 1 vs 100 is back again!

It’s great to see the Xbox Live team always pushing itself to improve. Being the most used online service they definitely could turn their focus on other things. But they constantly challenge themselves to make the service even better.

Thank you to everyone that has worked on Xbox Live for creating a service that really brings community on the 360 together. In honor of the birthday, comment below with what you love about Xbox Live!

Here are some pics of the various versions of Xbox Live:

Even though my Live account has only been active for a couple years, I did share an account with someone back when it started. Its been great seeing the evolution of the service. I have no problems paying the $50/yr to have the excellent connectivity and service that Xbox Live offers. Happy Birthday Xbox & Xbox Live!
