Xbox LIVE South Africa - pros and cons discussion

[OmegaFenix]

I've tried to make UK based e-mail accounts with addresses I know (stayed in the UK for 2 years and had 4 different addresses there and still had my friends to use - so like 12 legit addresses with their approval to use them).
But and can't remember 100% when last I tried but it kept picking up my I.P. address been from SA causing a conflict.
Just thought with this new Live SA topic it might bring light to this - its not gonna destroy my world if Xbox Live doesnt count as Microsoft Live account, just something nice to have.

Feel like Street Fighter 4 is like 30% complete :/

Set your pc's region to UK and see if that works. Worked for me when I linked my xbox and windows live accounts, even got 2 Fallout 3 achievements that now show up on my Xbox live account.

My gold sub expires end of this month, would there be any reason to wait for this? Or just renew via mspoints?
