it was the ONLY one for quite a while. im signed up for it...and i don't even own a 360.(for when im over friends houses)
How much you wanna bet MS payed Guinness to do that? My bet is ooonnnn... $100k
MS would rather pay for games and DLC than being on a piece of paper
Quite the "world record".
This just in *touches ear with index finger*, Nintendo has been given the Guiness World Record for the Least Popular Online Gaming Service.
might as well windows wins the world record for having the most games lol
A world record in a pool of 3? Thats kinda silly. If a man named Bill makes a comic book company out of his garage he should get a world record for "Greatest comic book company started by a man named bill in Florida out of his garage". It'd be just as legit as this.
Wouldnt put it past them
