Xbox Live
I got an Xbox 360 last week and a few minutes ago I just finished playing Pro Evolution Soccer with some guy in Ecuador. It was my first time playing on Xbox Live and it was pretty cool talking and playing with someone who was all the way across the world. I thought it wasn’t possible to play online because of lag but I am on a 512KB Qualitynet connection and I didn’t have any problems.

sometimes you get lag sometimes you dont. best thing is to play against someone who is in the middle east. Almost a guarantee No Lag.

man u should play a game where u need to cooperate, its so much funner, something like GoW, playing as a team and strategizing is the best part for me..damn i miss it..beware of the three red lights..they got me!

I agree with mutmut, beware of the red circle of doom. Don’t leave your xbox on for a day on pause thinking “haa..me so kewl”.
Anyway, you’ll be destroyed in Gears Of War. It’s full of pros, so don’t bother.

Gotta start somewhere! GoW is sick, and yes its full of pros but you do get better!

thought about it, decided didnt want to pay more then KD200 and i also didnt want to wait. Also don’t need HDMi. The 120gb drive is cool but i could buy it later if i need to.

I don’t know how they do it but playing online on the 360 is not like the PC. You can play with lag and have no problems. Don’t know how it really works.

two questions Mark:
you were using the whole connection speed for the game, right? i mean no downloads not torrents working alongside the game?
and second: isn’t this like WOWC which will lead you to addiction? i’m worried about you man. LoL :)
16. Mark | April 7th, 2007 at 4:12 pm
1) yeah no one was using or downloading anything off the connection. it was just gmail open on my laptop and me on xbox live.
2) its not THAT addictive. But it is cool. I played some Project Gotham online and that was fun. was racing with 3 other people, don’t know where they were from but they were talking french so they could have been in France.
