Xbox 360 online question?

ok my friend has borderlands 2 and I have an xbox, do I need to have a gold membership to play with him, if he is on my friends list could it count as a local game so I don't technically need to use any of microsofts servers and it is just me and my friends internet's that is getting the strain

    The only way you and your friend can play together is if you both have the game itself and 1 of 2 other things.

    You both have the game and both xboxs in the same place with two tvs and a Ethernet cable to plug into both Xboxs then you could play LAN play

    Or

    You both have the game and both have Xbox live gold membership.

    Silver membership alone will not allow you to connect to the Xbox live servers to be able to connect to each other.

    Sorry for the Bad news. Hope I helped.
