You MOST LIKLEY won't have to pay for XboxLIVE to play this game online. You just need an ethernet cable, and a silver xboxlive subscription (That's the free one). You probably just go to the main menu once your all connected and stuff, and click whatever it is that lets you connect. I played this other MMO (you can download the demo in the marketplace, it's pretty good) called Phantasy Star Univerese, and you didn't need a gold subscription to play. You just have to pay the monthley fee and you can get on their server. Come to think of it, you don't even have to pay for xboxlive to play halo 3 online. You just can't play with player created content in Halo 3 with a silver subscription. If you really want to, you could cancel your xboxlive (you will still have a silver subscription) and use the money to pay the fee to play this.

btw. Microtransactions would suck
