Today’s change has been in the works since January when Xbox tripped over themselves when they announced a price hike to Xbox Live Gold. After a swift community backlash, Xbox walked back the announced hike, and also announced free-to-play games would no longer require a Gold membership. During the January announcement, they said it would take some time to implement the change. Today, that change goes live.
