Help me get on XBox Live

~~Toonami Tom~~ · 03-10-2007, 12:38 AM

I really want to get on XBox Live. If I buy the $100 dollar 360 adaptor, do I Just plug it into my XBox 360 and select Live and that's it? I really hope it's that simple. I tried getting on XBox Live by uses a cable connected to my 360 and my PC, no such luck.

Are there any other easy ways to get on XBox Live?

Advice?

You know, I really tried that goddamn Windows PC connect thing for eons, but I finally gave up. My setup is wireless, but my Xbox sits right above my PC, so I wanted to do it that way, but Windows XP is such a piece of garbage--no. So I bought that overpriced wireless adapter, pluged it in, went to the dashboard settings and did a connection test. The adapter detected the Linksys router in the other room, connected properly, then I just signed in and went from there. That's my story. Sorry the Windows Connect thing is such a piece of sh*t bud. It's Microsoft's way of screwing you out of $99.

Oh.... well, I will probably just buy the over priced adapter then.

Thanks for the information.

I wonder if Microsoft did this on purpose, so they could get even more money out of everyone.
