    *Limited Time offer!

    • Applies to both US and UK residents.
    • I do know that current Xbox LIVE Gold members will NOT see this advert (my friend tried to find it, he's a Gold member).
    • Mastercard, American Express and Visa Credit Cards are only accepted.  No Maestro!
    • You can find this deal online too!  Go to:  Xbox.com > Your Profile > Join Xbox LIVE > Select "£1 for 1 month".
    • FINAL UPDATE:  Confirmed by Destructoid that this £1/month offer is ONLY FOR ONE MONTH!  Afterwards, standard price applies.  Sucks.

    They should do that here in the states.  I bet the Gold numbers will sky rocket here if they do it.

    I've never seen an FF theme on the Marketplace. I wouldn't want one, but how did you get it, may I ask?

    And what are the terms? I got suckered into subscribing to gold and although I don't want to cancel I hear there's no way to do so without phoning them and bitching, even then I've heard they're not helpful.

    I got it via Xbox.com > Marketplace.  It was FREE, which was awesome :D  Only a background picture though, not really a theme.

    When I clicked on it, it didn't list any terms - just went straight to "Upgrade now or not" (like when you upgrade from the dashboard the normal way).  You can cancel your subscription by removing your credit card on Xbox.com

    You go to:  Xbox.com > Profile > Contact Information > Manage Payment Options > Remove Credit Card

    @Insectecutor: When you get xbox live using a credit card they set your account to automatically renew.  It was a pretty long phone call to get them to eventually take my account off of auto renew but it was worth it.  I'm planning on buying a card from Amazon that gives you 13 months for $50.
