Alright, just got this a couple days ago, but haven't really used it yet. What is everyone's handle and what games you got that are Live enabled?

Handle:
DrRosenFetus (three gold stars to whomever knows where that is from)

Games:
NCAA Football 2005
ESPN Football 2K5
TOCA: Race Driver 2

Who wants some?!?

 

Xbox Live is pretty addictive...

Handle: MrB****

Games (right now):
ESPN Basketball
Amped 2
NFL Fever 2004

Games (getting this week):
ESPN NFL 2k5
Full Spectrum Warrior

BTW, how is ESPN NFL 2k5 compared to the EA series?

 

for $15.88 at Target with a 2-month live subscription I am not gonna complain.

I actually like it a lot. It is set up like an actual broadcast with the way replays are shown and the Steve Berman halftime show. It also saves every play in memory temporarily so that at the end of the game you can watch any play over again. The first person mode is hard to play, but it is cool. I'll probably still try out Madden when it comes out, but I am definitly keeping this one.

Sounds good. I have been hearing a lot of good reviews on it and the fact that a brand NEW Xbox game is $20 is unbelieveable. I heard Full Spectrum Warrior is amazing online, so I plan on pick that up later

 

c'mon, there has to be other people.......

 

I need your help guys,

My son wants it for his B-Day this month, how do I hook it up ???
I mean I know how, but here's the question

X-box is on the Living room TV (got 4 other systems too)
but my cable Modem is in this little computer room of mine on the other side of the house. What do I need to do this ????
Some said I have to buy a router, others tell me X-Box makes some kind of gadget, All I know is it has to work so we can use both the Computer and the X-box at the same time

WHAT DO I NEED ???

 

Rob,

I could explain it all but here is the easy way. http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/Connect.htm
Wired or wireless, it's your choice. It's about $100 more for wireless and a little more difficult, but worth it if you are limited on space. Wired is just plug and play, except for setting up the router, 10 minutes maybe. I have a full basement so I just measured and ran the wires. He will love it, my son is addicted.
Good luck

 

Thanks DR, exactly what I needed to know.
Looks like the router is the way to go, I see this is going to be more expensive than I thought but hey it's only plastic right, hehehehe

 

handle is Qiterplop

games currently owned
Ninja gaiden
mechassualt

Rob -
I wouldn't plan on being able to use both at the same time to a satisfying level. Unless you have a rediculous amount of bandwidth the Xbox will lag when using both and when the lag gets too bad the person you are playing usually leaves, lol. I have a 3 mb/s cannection and I dont even try to play when someone is online anymore, just not worth it. Just some info to think about.

Also, if you are going to get a router, you might as well get a wireless router as it has the same plug and play cababilities, yet has the option to go wireless if you want to as well. Prices on these setups are much more reasonable than when I set the system up.

Q -
what is this about Halo 2? I dont know anything about it....... lol

-Kimball

 

I have a wireless router in the computer room that the 3 computers plug into, and a wireless bridge in the living room that plugs into a 5 port hub with my xbox, PS2, and gamecube..

 

go to bed brooks, lol.

But heck, since I'm up too. Ive got my wireless router with the 42" Widescreen and Xbox downstairs and beam all my late night internet upstairs.

It looks like all you are missing is a Sega Dreamcast. I know where you can find one with House of the Dead and two guns!

Do you remember a game system called Colecovision? At least I think that's what it was. It was introduced sometime between the Atari 2600 and 5200 I think. There were some cool games for that system, and it had great graphics! Well, great when I was 13 or so

 

Brooks is also missing a TurboDuo.

I currently have:

Xbox
Dreamcast
TurboDuo
TurboExpress x2

Had, but gone:

Atari 2600
TurboGraphx 16 (upgraded to Duo)
Gamecube x2
PS2 x2

PS---

Just got my hands on a copy of Doom 3!!! yipee! Time to see how well my GeForce3 Ti500 holds up, lol.
