What was xbox live diamond

If anyone forgot, this is the program launched by Microsoft Xbox Live division that promised discounts on all kinds of things from lodging, to restaurants to clothing. Unfortunately, registration issues and cards not being sent out in a timely manner got the program off to a bad foot. To make matters worse, the discounts were predominately slanted toward the West and Northwest U.

The program seemed to get its feet on the ground by the summer, with quite a few discounts and some decent national programs. Unfortunately, when Quiznos was dropped or left I basically forgot about the website as no other discount had much use for me.

They said you could hand it to the cashier for discounts at certain places, but I always imagined that the person would be super confused and have no idea what Xbox Live Diamond even is. I remember stumbling across this website by accident in the past. I've certainly never found a resource for such a tool - no stores in my town offer discounts to gamers for having a little card.

If they gave discounts at places people actually eat at regularly like Subway, Wendys, and various Pizza places. Perhaps Best Buy discounts? If you play a lot of online multiplayers, you are going to need Gold. For free-to-play games, you will no longer need an Xbox Live Gold membership to play those games on Xbox. We are working hard to deliver this change as soon as possible in the coming months. For players who are fond of paid online games, an Xbox Live Gold subscription is still a requirement.

Additionally, the Xbox Live Gold service is still essential for those who anticipate its monthly free games, especially now that Microsoft is upping its game for its roster of Games with Gold.

Xbox Live Gold membership will not be required to play free-to-play multiplayer games, Microsoft has announced. The OS update that is currently being tested has been released for Xbox Insiders and brings some fixes, along with making free-to-play multiplayer games work without Xbox Live Gold membership.

You can only share gold on 1 console at a time. If only 1 of the kids is going to be using the 2nd console, the first could set that console as their Home in order to share their gold.
