I  couldn't find the option, it was just joining other players waiting for a deathmatch, i wanted to play against a mate only. Is that possible #504466 by Carpy (Anti - Royalist) at 2006-01-05 23:56:15 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] @easy1- yes you can play the 360 in hd so long as you get the vga cable. you should be able to play games in 720p and 1080i, but they will be upscaled, unless you dont own a 16:9 monitor @bowie07 - you will have to find your own server, or link up. @ DaMaster - you dont need gold to play online with the 360, you get a free account out of the box. gold only adds a couple of features. @fozburt - not yet but im working on it. You? #504538 by unknown[103723] at 2006-01-06 01:10:57 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] Carpy wrote: @fozburt - not yet but im working on it. You? Yeah, I got live up and running - using the wireless adapter - and it works really nicely, hardly any lag and makes the games more fun as well - especially PDZ and PGR3. Anyone who is not sure about whether to get live or not, i would say just do it because it is really good! #504596 by GodZilla81 (Power User) at 2006-01-06 02:22:16 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] Carpy wrote: @easy1- yes you can play the 360 in hd so long as you get the vga cable. you should be able to play games in 720p and 1080i, but they will be upscaled, unless you dont own a 16:9 monitor @bowie07 - you will have to find your own server, or link up. @ DaMaster - you dont need gold to play online with the 360, you get a free account out of the box. gold only adds a couple of features. @fozburt - not yet but im working on it. You? Nope, u DO need gold to play online with 360, only games u can play online without it are mmorpg ones (the coming Final Fantasy for exsample) #504702 by unknown[116451] at 2006-01-06 05:06:20 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] the lithium icemodchip appears to be a hoax only created by infinitymods , bogus #504715 by unknown[4068] at 2006-01-06 05:34:48 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] I fucking LOVE the smell of Xbox 360 & HDTV in the morning... #504778 by DaMaster (Power User) at 2006-01-06 08:02:07 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] Carpy wrote: @ DaMaster - you dont need gold to play online with the 360, you get a free account out of the box. gold only adds a couple of features. GodZilla81 already said it and i'll say it again: you DO need Gold to play games online, the only games you can play online with Silver are the MMO's (like the upcoming FFXI). Yes, you do get a 1 month free Gold trial with your 360 (which ends tomorrow for me), after that you are automatically dropped to Silver and you need to purchase either 1 month, 3 month or 12 month subscribition of Gold-membership. #505346 by unknown[44170] at 2006-01-06 20:31:39 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] hmm does the x-box360 support linksys WUSB54G becuase it keeps saing connect the wireless adpter to your x-box .and yup i did the wizard #505538 by Carpy (Anti - Royalist) at 2006-01-06 23:58:22 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] DaMaster wrote: GodZilla81 already said it and i'll say it again: you DO need Gold to play games online, the only games you can play online with Silver are the MMO's (like the upcoming FFXI).

(some guys were goin wow in a movie about it when they were messing about with 1 in a shop) how much is the xbox live after the 6months free with it? (read some where u can get 6months free but no info about how much) whats the difference with playing it with say a normal widescreen tv to a HD tv?

Yup you will need to vga cable, also make sure your screen can display 1280x720 (720p) or else it will not work correct. Aother thing to think about is the screen ratio most tft's are 4:3, this will create a streched look when playing 360 games. Tho it should not look to bad, and some games have the option to change back to 4:3 #515464 by unknown[103723] at 2006-01-17 18:23:19 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] I was looking for a monitor which i could use with an xbox 360 and a PC and i came across the FSC Scaleoview W19-1 for £240 inc del from  http://www.hardwarearea.com. The monitor is 19" and is widescreen - perfect for the 360 and stunning results on your PC games! I reccommend you get one if you are after a multipurpose monitor for PC and 360 - it also has DVI and VGA input so you can use a 360DVI output if, as Carpy said, "microsoft will get there fecking finger out there ass". ----------- #516784 by starwarseye (Power User) at 2006-01-19 05:05:48 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] does anyone know when the xbox 360 will be avalible again in the uk? i just saw at a site it says the 7th but cant find the date anywhere else. #516848 by unknown[26171] at 2006-01-19 08:23:07 (7 years ago) - [Quote] - [Report] starwarseye wrote: does anyone know when the xbox 360 will be avalible again in the uk? i just saw at a site it says the 7th but cant find the date anywhere else. Look around and ye shall find... They are popping up everywhere.  Online, and in the high street.  If you want one you will find one within a couple of days... if you'd like one but can't be arsed with any effort then it's gonna be a while till you can just walk into a store and pick one off the shelf, unless you're lucky.
