what do you mean by buying an un-modded 1 that can play xbox live safely???
and I have read articles that saying going online has payment but i read another article saying that it is free which 1 is right ???

ok, in order to go LIVE, u can go for free, but there is 2 types of online, silver and gold....
Silver is the default, free type, u can dl SOME videos, game demos, arcade games and still be able to chat with people(and occasionally microsoft will let u play multiplayer games online for free during special promotions....
Gold is the 2nd one, and paid one (malaysian price for subscription - 3months for RM89), u will get to dl exclusive videos, demos, game add ons, although some of them will need to be paid also with bought POINTS, same as online game points (1600 points costs RM 89).
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, IN ORDER TO PLAY MULTIPLAYER ONLINE, U WILL NEED THE GOLD ACCOUNT!!!SILVER DOESNT ALLOW FREE MULTIPLAYER IN GAMES!!!
nothing is free, but if it's in your budget, go for it....anymore questions ill be happy to answer u...cheaaarrs!
p.s.-and also if u buy modded,if caught they'll ban u for like, forever maybe, so no more online even with silver account....
