sorry to bump a long dead thread but...
I never got around to buying the wifi for xbox but, now that I"ve moved, my router is located very close to my TV and I've been able to hardwire my xbox.
So I've got xBox LIVE now. (currently halfway through my 1-month Gold Membership free trial)
My friend and I played some multilayer Halo3 last night and got are asses kicked pretty hard for a couple hours before we called it a night.
It was fun though. I'm not sure if it was fun enough to pay $50 a year or $20 every 3 months to continue the membership though. I don't have any real-world friends that have their own xbox and, playing with strangers sucks because I suck and get killed every 10 seconds.
Anyone else still use xbox live? recommendations?
