Microsoft Xbox Live

GTA V Online goes live tomorrow

GTA V Online goes live tomorrow. For those of us who have waited since the day we got our Grand Theft Auto 5 games, the wait is over come October 1, 2013 which is tomorrow. So here's some information to know:

  • Money will not be carried over from single player. 
  • Cash will have to be earned from scratch. If time is a concern, no worries. You can purchase cash in the game store for weapons, cars, clothes, etc.
  • You will be able to get together with your crew to do heists or just explore the city of Los Santos and enjoy the scenery :)

Looking forward to getting on there tomorrow with my crew and this is going to be fun. We're going to have some fun doing some crazy stunts and causing some mayhem together like the old days of America's Army lol. :D

 

Microsoft Xbox Live changes are coming

Looks like it is the end for those of us who subscribe to Microsoft Xbox Live's Family Pack where it allows you and your family members to have Xbox live accounts for a total of $99.99 per year. Great money saver but Microsoft is doing away with it so it can implement changes on Xbox live to make room for the Xbox One. So what does this mean for those of us that have accounts on this plan? No worries, Microsoft will compensate us with 3 additional months to each account.

Additional changes include the Microsoft  Xbox live points system being phased out and will be replaced with local currency. So instead of purchasing downloadable content with Microsoft points, you will use actual currency. Got existing Microsoft points on your account? No worries, because these points will be converted to your local currency. More information can be found on the Microsoft Account Transition to Local Currency page.
