[almadawarrior]

also, does anyone know
any plans of microsoft to
slash xbox360 price?

[Macca]

If there are any plans they will come at E3 next week. I don't think they will though.

[almadawarrior]

I forgot to mention that
my dad is going to help me buying the 360
94 euros left
what happens is that i also have a silver slimline ps2
buyed it, because i didn't want to give 420 euros for a new 360
and i was wainting for a slash in it's price
now i got this cool deal (400 euros = x360+win11+GoW)
and i'm willing to pay that for the console
but i don't want to sell my ps2 (those are the conditions/the agreement that i maked up)
after hearing you guys talking about having 3 psp, 2 360, 3 ps2 LOL
so on (thats ridicullus)

XBOX LIVE should be free
is to damn complicated
the suckers ask for credit card and other related things
instead of only activate the free trial version
with no questions or required future membership
besides, everyone pay for internet connection

[whitehawk]

You don't need to use a credit card. You can buy a prepaid one for 13 months. I suggest ebay since it's a lot cheaper.

i wouldnt sell your ps2 either see if u can make sum deal with your dad so u can keep that too, i love my ps2 as much as my 360. i doubt there will be any price cuts because the elite just came out too.

[almadawarrior]

i don't want to sell my ps2
i commited the same mistake with my original xbox (sold it)

its not a package its like a little card with a number on the back. when u create a account it ask for a credit card or live card. and i would think any live card would work but im not sure.

[almadawarrior]

ok
so it's an official microsoft pre-payd card
i can get one at the store where i'm buying the xbox360 pack

Also, your last sentence uses fake words and makes no sense whatsoever.

with this sentence i was trying to tell you guys (as if you already didn't know that),
how expensive is xbox360 and also it's extra features (LIVE, camera, hdcable, GAMES, so on)

also, thanks for the links Abe_Froeman

edit: i have another question
when i was searching for the XBOX LIVE CARD, i saw that at the store they were also selling XBOX LIVE points card
they told me that i would need them (points) to download content from LIVE
does these points also apply to the download of demos
if "yes", were can i get them (points)?
if "no", then their also absolutely free to download, and i only need the subscrition to LIVE service?

to play xbox 1 games put the game in while connected to live and it will automatically update it so u can play xbox 1 games.

[almadawarrior]

there isn't another way
i'm not even connected to live
and i don't know if i will
since it's to expensive
i only wanted a link
where i could obtaine all the updates
FW version and the emulators for the xbox1 games
can anyone provide me one or we simply can't do that?
must be with live

[Macca]

You only need Live Silver. Just make a new account, you don't need a credit card or anything.

[almadawarrior]

basically connect my xbox360 to my linksys router
then fallow the steps on screen
and there is no credit card request for silver subscrition
thats strange
but it would be cool if it was just like this
i think we must pay for silver too am i right?

[whitehawk]

No, Silver is free. 100% FREE.

Just connect it to your router, and then it should update it for you once it's connected to XBox live.

[almadawarrior]

tnks
i will try that out
if the cable could reach the router lol

edit: damn, it's to far

[whitehawk]

The 360 comes with a cable that is really long.

[almadawarrior]

yeah i know
that was the one i used

my room(xbox360)____________ ______________/ /_office (router)

[whitehawk]

You could always get the wireless adapter for the 360 if you have wireless network in your house. But it costs $99.99.

[almadawarrior]

damn
going to by a larger ethernet cable from pc store or w/e
$99.99 , thats to much
the adaptor should come in built
so on
tnks

[Macca]

Just buy a large ethernet cable. They're like $5.
