The best things in life are free. Free as a bird. Get on the freeway. Pick your favorite I'm-a-cheap-bastard cliche this weekend and put it to good use, because a special promotion will give every Xbox 360 owner unrestricted Xbox Live access for 72 hours.
From Friday March 31 to Sunday April 2, Verizon and Microsoft will unlock the gates to anybody with an Xbox Live Silver account (which is free to all Xbox 360 owners) and give them temporary Gold status, so they can play against other gamers instead of merely downloading demos, games and trailers from Xbox Live Arcade and the Marketplace.
