Twitter and Facebook on Xbox 360 Require Gold Membership
Those who don't pay for Xbox Live excluded from social networks
A representative for Microsoft confirmed to IGN that the upcoming Facebook and Twitter functionality to be tied into Xbox Live is for Gold members only. This means that if you want to use the Xbox 360 versions of the popular social networking services, you'll need to pay the Xbox Live subscription fee.
As a contrast, use of Facebook and Twitter are normally free, which if you use the services you know already.
This news came from a footnote in a recent press release where Microsoft announced a price drop on its Xbox 360 Elite model. An Xbox Live Gold membership will also be required for Live Party and Last.fm, according to the release.
