Free Gold status to anyone with a Xbox 360 this weekend! Today through Sunday you can log on to Xbox Live and play as a Gold member with Xbox's free Gold weekend event. It's sponsored by Verizon Wireless. This is a good idea, let people experience the Live world and give us some free time. I think this will happen more than once because it's a good advertisement. It's also not as volatile (or nice for the average consumer) as the two month subscriptions that used to come in Xbox games.
