XBox Live
Reply
Posted 2005-01-03, 08:27 PM
I've never played on XBox Live, only through my school network with MP, so this might be a dumb question. Does it come with all the proper cables and whatnot when I get it, or do I need to buy the ethernet cable and all that shit to play online?

Also, is it possible to use 4 TVs with only 1 XBox so we each get our own screen when trying to kill bitches?

The cable's for xbox live do not come with the xbox itself. Yea, you need the cable to play online.

For question number 2, Nope, you can though get like 2x xboxs on 2x tvs and all play each other so it would be 8 people in one game.

I have heard of something that can split an image into 4 sections that go into 4TVs... but it is always like that, so trying to nav through menus would be a bitch. I have never actually seen it for sale, just some kids talking about it

Damnit. So all in all, after buying XBox Live, the cable, and year subscription, the total cost should be around $125?

Is that a safe estimate?

When you buy the xbox live kit it should come with a year subscription

People don't get it. You don't need that XBOX LIVE kit, all it gives you is head phones...big whoops. Waste of 50$$. You just need the cable and a year subscription is around 70 or 80 bucks....or at least here it is. When you buy the xbox, it's 3 months free though....

Don't even bother buying the subscription. Most games now come with something like 2+ months free. What I did was saved em up before I had live, use the free time they give u, and then use the ones from a game. If I buy another game, I'll get more free months too.

Wait a minute. I thought I needed to buy that XBox Live kit? Isn't there any kind of hardware that comes with it that is needed?

Also, if I use one of those 2 months free subscription things, can I keep using different ones consecutively?

Just get the kit, it's like 70 bucks for headphones, a free game, and a years subscription. Your ethernet cable going to the xbox should just be the same kind going to your computer for your internet. It will have to come from a router of some sort unless you get a wireless one.

No clue about the 4 TV's thing.

Heh, I actually use wireless for my internet. I think I have to get a wireless router for it? Do you have to use a computer to use XBox Live (These are probably the dumbest questions, but whatever)?
