Feel free to deltea this mods if you think its off topic but i need help i was going to get x-box live and heard some bad romours about it not letting you log into it sometimes and it being very random if it was jsut a few people i wodnt mind but alot have told me so so i was wondering if any has had it or seen it and can tell me if it does this and if its worth the money to by it

thanks all Billy

yes it is possible that X-box live will provide problems BUT the chance is very unlikely. Why would Microsoft put a product on the market that wouldn't work for half of the time. Now i'm not a pro about xbox-live but it sounds more like fanboyisch trouble makers to me. Now there are always people that are having problems with technology. But it would be better to inform you on a xbox forum, but you might be lucky if some botf2 user has experience with this.

btw I actually don't like the xbox i hate it for stealing RARE! so i'm not a fanboy (i think...)

I have live for my 360, have not had any problems, and absolutely love it. Most of the problems I have heard of involve problems with wireless routers. If you plan to use a wireless router, I would strongly recommend checking out http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/connecttolive/home/xbox360/connecttolive-networkingequipment.htm

If you already have a router, definitely try that first. But if you have problems or are looking to buy one, refer to this list. Also notice that many of the routers may need firmware updates to work properly with Live.

Hope this helps.

I couldn't agree more! Rare should never have been sold to Microsoft!

I'm just glad that they haven't been doing very well out of the move...



But I am - of Nintendo.

I haven't got an Xbox, or a 360, but what hammondm said makes sense.

If you're gonna get an Xbox, make sure it is compatible, Billy. This aplies to everything, really.

There isn't any point in having some piece of technology that doesn't work simply because you didn't check beforehand to see if it was compatible with your existing setup.

me too

its the most fun ive had with multiplayer in a very long time and cheap too (compared to WoW or SWG)

ok i knew about wireless routors but thanks anyway man

but i was thinking of purcaseing it and think i might go for 300GB hard drive now lol dont know hahah confused lol

i have a 120gb hd - and the only reason I got one that big is for movies.

i got in the habit of ripping and compressing my movies. I have perfected it to getting a full length DVD down to 1000(or so)mb. Thats with virtually NO quality change. I cant tell the difference between my version and the dvd, other than its far easier to use, and there are no skips.

300gb hard drive already got it but i got let down its a usb one buts its better its ace lol

usb can be good


i'll assume its 7200rpm? and USB2.0?

nods

good guss
