ok so i'm gonna get a 360 pretty soon. i got an xbox live account on my normal xbox that i have right now and its valid till like july i think.. but i keep asking people and some say i need to pay for a whole new account to play on the 360 and others say i dont.. so whats the real answer here, do i need a new account?
no you dont have to, all you do is go on your 360 and go to gamertag recovery and you will be automatically upgraded on your 360 to a gold account
no you don't your original account will just carry onto your 360 as a gold account...don't listen to noobs...
No there is an option to transfer your regular xbox live account to your 360 so you should be good to go bro
