Maybe but it could be you. Even though the 1st 3 steps are ok the 4th can still be you. I've had the problem that if the PC has been on and connected to the internet and then I connect the XBox up after the PC has been on for the whole day the XBox doesnt like to use the internet for XBox Live. A reboot with all the wires in and the XBox turned on is a good thing to do.
But it could be just down.
Anyway gamertag is in the tag to the right <----.

MY only full online game is Ghost Recon. I mainly play GR, so if you play it a lot, then feel free to add me.

Got the updates earlier today, all seems well, GR is hard online, i'll add you all tonite :) see you online!
Ghost Recon does get easier, just don't give up and DONT play games where they use explosives as these are for unskilled idiots (no offence intended)
Ghost Recon is not hard. I DID find it hard when I first started, but soon your mind gets used to spotting enemies in the distance. Its alll about finding cover and having a good eye for spotting enemies.
Funnily enough, my favourite gun is one of those with explosives on it. I forgot the name of it, but its the gun that fires grenades which automatically reload. I dont use the grenades much, only for clearing houses. But I LOVE the actual gun. I find its bursts are very well controlled, especially since you can choose from 3 rates of fire.
People who use explosives are not unskilled, its only unskilled if you play with Ghost Recon on arcade mode where you have unlimited EVERYTHING! That makes it toooo easy. With the proper mode, you may have a gun with grenades, but you have a limit, like you would have in real life and you must choose when it is the best time to use them.
I dont use grenades that much but as I said, that gun is my fav.

Yeah grenades are cool. When I pay its always the real game not arcade. I love sneeking around and then seeing some other person running in the distance, and then getting the angle right and shoving a grenade 2 inchs from them.
