I'm considering letting my Live Gold account expire when it falls due in a week. Anyone want to play anything online this week? Tues or Wed are probably the best days for me this week, though I should be on some tonight.
Flatout? NHL? Some other racing?

Tuesday or Wednesday should be good for me. Whatever everyone else wants to play is fine with me.

Just not using Live?
I'll definitely jump in if this is going to be a swan song for you.

Yeah, just not using live. I just realized that I'd lose streaming netflix, though, which is something that my family does use, so looks like I'll be keeping it up.

I was just about to ask you what you lose. I know you can't game online, but are game updates and game demos still available to Silver members?

Yep! Update, demos, marketplace, etc are still available. (Though Silver members have to wait longer for access to things in some cases...gold members may get a release first.) But you do lose Netflix, and my kids actually get a lot of use out of that. My wife and I catch a movie on it occasionally as well.
I'm still up for playing something, though. Maybe Flatout tonight?

I have that decision to make next month since I haven't done much online gaming lately. The biggest drawback for me, besides no online gaming, would be getting demos later than gold members.
Oh yeah, Flatout is fine with me.

Just a heads up: I had one power outage about 10 minutes ago due to the big snow storm heading our way, so if you don't see me online, it's because I lost power again.

Good racing tonight. I forgot how much fun the derbies were.

Yeah, thanks for finding some time, guys! Flatout is an odd game in that it can be relaxing and intense at the same time. Like, I can just chill playing it but at the same time all kinds of crazy stuff is going on on the screen.
I had a good time.
