Xbox Rocks The Vote

If you’re a gaming addict who hasn’t registered to vote, life just became a whole lot easier. Starting today, thanks to a partnership between Microsoft and activist group Rock the Vote, you can now register to vote using the interactive Xbox Live service.

Additionally, there will be polls about how people are likely to vote on the service as well as forums where people can express opinions that will be forwarded to the Presidential candidates.

It's a definite bummer for subscribers, especially since Forza Horizon 4 still holds up even next to its successor (but not unexpected, as its DLC was delisted in June).
