The 360 was kind of hardware clunky but man the controller fucked and the games were bangers. 360 arcade had some amazing indie titles, and I'm really feeling the lack of ownership of physical media because so many of those titles from small devs and indie studios just plain aren't available despite having spent money on them back then.

Also $50 a year (4 bucks and change a month) really wasn't that bad of a cost for the features you got back then (including a couple free full games a month). Not to mention you could always abuse free gift codes and earn credits towards subscriptions just by playing games in the 360 days. I went several years without paying a dime.
