Shadowrun for Silver & Gold: SOLUTION


There are lots of non-believers of the connected PC to console service that Microsoft will be rolling out soon. People that don't pay for the LIVE service won't get to mingle via PC/console and Microsoft is betting and making a huge investment that this would be a phenomenon that takes off like LIVE and Achievements did. They are using Shadowrun to promote this service and many are skeptical about the beta's mixed reviews, or impressions rather.

Are you ready for what I'm about to say though as a possible awesome solution...!!?? Well, listening to Achievement Junkie.com, a listener wrote in by the name of Vince. He suggested something ingenious!!! Vince said, not word verbatim:

Since Shadowrun is the first and only game with huge ambitions for LIVE/Games for Windows service, Microsoft should also make it the only "Silver account" game... meaning that this would be the only game that Microsoft would allow Gold and Silver accounts to play together. I thought that was a huge idea even though I'm getting it(Shadowrun) none-the-less. But I think it would have people starting thinking about getting Gold accounts. Spread the word, maybe Microsoft is listening. What do you all think?
