i use xbox live all the time and i have my gc broadband adaptor, with PSO. it works fine.
xbox live is better due to headset etc and more online fun!
but again its only early days for gc online.
also in case you didnt know, i dont think blueyonder will back nintendo seeings as they are the official xbox live isp.
they sponsor it you see. whereas telewest are cheeky gits! as of march 2003 when xbox live is officially released in stores you will ned to pay a subscription fee to telewest. they say this is due to tha use of a seperate IP address. Now this is rubbish as if you think about it, having two or more PCs on a LAN in your own home uses more than one IP address and you dont get charged for that!
all you need to do is use ICS on your PC setup and use your PCs MAC address in the Xbox live setup

They'll be sure to have more titles going online soon enough.
Just wait - if Nintendo Online is ready, then Nintendo will be ready with some of their good games too, I'm sure.

I am not with AOL :) And I am not getting GC online as the only game planned is PSO which I dont want. If they had stuff like Mario Kart, Metriod Prime then I would get it.

Yep due to you having to connect with the browser. Any dial-up or broandband that need a special piece of software to connect to the internet wont work. AOL doesnt work with XBox Live either.
