Microsoft wants to Increase Friend Limit

[Leftwich]

So, it's not quite the "ZOMG Friends List Increase Confirmed" announcement that we hoped for but Xbox director Aaron Greenberg came as close as we've heard to revealing that it's in the works.

When we spoke to him at CES today (more on that later) Greenberg told us "I can't commit to when that will happen, but that is something we want to do. It's definitely something we're looking at expanding and, as this social network grows, we've absolutely heard the pleas for that. It's on the list."

Greenberg explained that original Xbox games were coded to be limited to 100 friends, and that limit was brought into the current generation. But now that Live is built in to the system, they've got a little more flexibility. We, and the thousands of potential friends we turn away daily, can't wait to hear more.

I find it crazy how people have their friends list full.

Good cause I'm always erasing people that haven't been on in a while. Then when they get back on they fucking send me another friends request then I end up erasing someone else..lol. A cycle I've been doing since I got XBL.

Im the shit, I know

Thank the lord, i've had a full friends list for almost a year, its a pain in the ass.

i know when you have had xbox live since the old xbox you might have a lot of friends i know i do its a hassle i have already decided not to add any more people unless i know them

 

[LC AAU]

About 60-70 are friends from school/ neighbors. The rest are from here/SH, My NBA leagues (Contract Player and DUBA), and the first people i met on xbox live,

Yea. But on a good note add me as a friend if you still have space.

What games do you play?

I always have a full friend list. I guess that what I get for being so damned likeable. I always clear out inactive people tho, but I get friend requests out the wazoo.

Rush > Rest.

Nice we have a NBA 2k9 ladder & leagues you should checkout. I am thinking about getting WAW, how is it?

 

[MvP]

I usually don't let my friends list get over 50 but it's good that they're changing this.
