You'll need an Xbox Live subscription, it costs £35 for a year, you get a month free with your xbox so that's not a primary concern.
If you're going to set it up near a router you won't need anything other than an ethernet cable, one of those comes with the Xbox I'm pretty sure anyway. If not, you'll probably end up needing an official Xbox Wireless Dongle thing, they cost like £50(!) and you can't use any 3rd party ones or anything.

Apart from those two things, nothing.

Hmm..ok. I guess I'll need one of those Wireless thingys because I'm going to move it from room to room..maybe I can check on Craigslist for a cheaper one. Thanks.

The only game he should have been in, was a fighting style game titled 'Nacho Libre Fighter Arcade'

The game looks pretty meh in my opinion, though I do enjoy Jack Black's voice acting.

Well he is just over the top and in my opinion he is a bad actor at times.

Eh, you don't go and watch Jack Black movies for his subdued and skilled acting.

I don't go and watch his movies full stop.

Name change sucks.

It depends how you look at it. I like names short and sweet. My original name was Simple82. Then changed to -_-Psycho-Simple-_-, after the username crack down Psycho-Simple and since then nothing. But it's just nice to see a plain and simple (sorry) name next to my posts.

Anyway, been playing through the new Wolverine game these past few days and I love it, combined with Banjo Tooie that has been my xbox gaming week.

Gratuitous amounts of blood.

I agree with you 100%

That video gets me pumped up for E3. I don't even like the game but just the shock and awe in the gaming world after this announcement just gets you so excited for what is next.

The best part was that Sony actually had no idea about it. =)

E3 is less than a month away boys.

Does anyone have an xbox live card to give?

Strange, I thought E3 was always in July. Still, I'm eager to see the new trailers and announcements they'll have.

Currently taking bets on whether Alan Wake gets a release date.

It varies from year to year but yes, it is very early this year.

Oh I agree with that prediction. There are a handful of previously announced games that I think we will hear about but what I'm most interested in are some new announced games.

At 5/4/09 10:31 AM, cornbin wrote: Jack Black needs to be in like,every game.

Not every game, but the odd few. This is THE game of the year for me. I've been anticipating it for ages now and I can't wait. Tim Schafer FTW.

Nah, it used to be in May before, wasn't it? Either way, I think this year will be big! Sony and MS seem to have a lot to show. Nintendo, not so much. MS may reveal a couple of games (Lionhead project, Rare project, some Bungie project) but (right now) it looks like Sony will be just showing off known games.

Mass Effect 2's getting a big reveal at E3 supposedly, that's all I care about.

I'm playing Resident Evil 5 again.

I had to start over because I ungraded my hard-drive and I didn't transfer any of the saved files.

The game seriously has some of the easiest boss fights ever. I think the potato bag, chainsaw guys are tougher then most of them.

Was in July last year, June this year, May prior. I'd say it varies. ;)

I think they all have a lot of to show actually. Nintendo has a few hardcore games. I think MS will have the best show.

This is fucking funny.

I have a question for you that should have an easy answer.

If I download something from the XBL Marketplace and it was removed from my hard drive (accidentally or purposely) would I have to pay to get another copy, or would it record that I've already paid for it and allow me to download it again free of charge?

Thanks in advance.

At 5/5/09 03:04 PM, Odyssic wrote: You can download it again if you delete it, it will have recorded that you have already brought it. Same with themes and game add-ons.

Thank for the fast response. I can tell you that I've never paid for any of the content available in the market place before. Now that I know this I think I'll be more likely to try it out as the fear of it getting deleted and me having to re-buy it is gone.

I could really do to upgrade my 20Gb hard drive to one of the 120Gb models.

I've missed out on so much stuff over the years. COD Maps, Fable II DLC, The Lost and the Damned, GH:3 tracks and all of the Oblivion add-ons to name just a few.

Ok so I really need some active friends to play with. Add me if you have any of these games and normally play them: NHL 09, Counter-Strike (Original Xbox), Skate 1, Gears 2, Halo 3, L4D, and COD 4 & 5.

Oh and I'm deciding between either Street Fighter 4 or Resident Evil 5 for my next game. Any thoughts?

YO CAN GET A NAME CHANGE?????? man i cant wait for E3 , i wonder if ther will be any new info for bioshock / and more DLC for fable..... oh yah! anyone know if there will be an info on halo3 odst? hmm, i need an infection on halo3 it is boring without on going on now..... all i see is slayers now, what with my AVG brethren getting ready for the online tounament for the 5K M$ points........

I got the Broken Steel DLC for Fallout 3, but since I'm on a character that is midway through the game, I won't be seeing the fruits of my purchase for a while. I could just upload an old save of a character that I have beaten the game with, but I feel like beating the game with this character as well. The new perks look interesting though.

PUPPIES!

Don't finish it just yet. You can't get the achievements yet for whatever reason and Beth is working on patching it.

Some interesting news today.

Gears of War 2 "All Fronts" it contains all the previous DLC plus 7 new maps and a deleted campaign mission!

1v100 should be coming next week, perhaps earlier for Canadians. This actually sounds really fun and worth it. Bes of all it is FREE. This is not an arcade game, this is a new channel whith more games on the way.
