Right, I should be getting an XBox soon enough and I was wanting to know a little bit about LIVE. I know BB is needed, but I have really, really crappy BroadBand and don't know whether LIVE will support it; what kind can be used/works best?

Also, any good games I should get? I should be getting Halo, MM3, TS2 and Rally Fusion (no prizes for guessing where I'll get that from) and perhaps some others at XMas, but I'm still undecided about them.

Anyway, cheers in advance.

Is JSR: F online, or is a bit too early for online? I've been wanting to get it, played it and loved it. Also is it worth getting both PGR and PGR 2? I don't to waste my money in a GTA III/Vice City kind of a way.

I have been without an xbox for the whole summer holidays... I can wait a few days for a headset...






I LIE, IT'S ALL I LIE! I've already ripped three of my eyes out in anticipation!

Well some people say it is. Not all though. Depends if you can stand the wait for R63 to arrive.

Apparantly the starter kit headset is uncomfy so i'm just waiting for R63 and i shall buy a years subrsricption which is the same as the starter kit.

Makes little sense to others but it's not to me!

That made very little sense. What about buying an Xbox live starter kit, £40 with a headset and when your two month trial runs out use the years subscription you get with it?

I'm going to use the one i get with R63 next week or the week after. I might after stop using Live before i fo insane of having no headset. But i hate people knowing what i sound like (a prat that's about 8 years old) so i might use the sound mask. But then again i won't be bothered to activate so i won't.
