Microsoft offers free Xbox Live Gold weekend
With the addition of Facebook, Twittter, and Last.fm compatibility, as well as the recent launches of Modern Warfare 2, Left 4 Dead 2, and Borderlands, there's no better time to show off what Xbox Live has to offer. European gamers will get the same treatment the following weekend, from the 25th until the 30th of November.
Keep in mind that not all features are available in all regions. Sky Player, for example, is available to European users whereas Netflix only applies to customers in the U.S.

This is their way of getting more people with modified consoles to connect to Xbox Live so that they can be banned permanently as well as having their consoles crippled. |

I agree. I'm no fan of microsoft but there's absolutely nothing negative about gold weekends. It just offers everyone a taste of online games for a weekend and if your console is modified, then you deserve to have it disabled. |
