you have to buy a wireless adaptor around £60 or plug the ethernet cable from your router if you have one to the xbox at the back

For your Xbox360 to wirelessly connect to your router you will need to buy a Wireless Network Adapter Shown Here but you can get them for cheaper than shown there. So then you plug that into your 360's usb ports and it should scan for your router (not sure about the rest as i don't use one) |

Connect it directly using an ethernet cable between your 360 and router...otherwise no
Xbox live for a year is £35-£40, cheaper on Ebay though i think i payed £30

I had an adapter and cost me £50 odd but bloody thieves added VAT so it cost £61.00 and then two weeks later sold it again for £62.00 buy it now!!!
(nifty pound made!!)
My xbox live membership cost me £30 from HMV with a discount offer and free delivery if you wanna wait fourteen days(I waited fifteen though!!)

Xbox Live cost me £40 for 2 years ;D I used to connect to live thorugh Ethernet cable but i cba anymore so i bought a Wireless adpater from Play for £55 Online play is soooooo much better on the 360, theres a sense of community with it rather than just going on and then leaving and not making any new friends on the ps3  I think in the far future the PS3 might be better with the blu-ray but at the moment 360 wins for me |

The only problem is those darn americans though hey Chris????
I keep telling them all to calm down and go eat a burger and they tell me to calm down and drink some tea...
We once entered a game putting on dead posh accents and saying:
'Montogmery, what are you injesting for your delighgts this fine British dusk???
Beef Wellington, ah i thought as much, Jeeves has made me the same with a remarkable Raspberry ripple cake for afters!'

The yanks are something special to be fair. Tea and Crumpets, bad teeth, the Queen...you can't help but go without those being mentioned. We're speaking our own language wrong because they can't understand us? Put on a stupid yank accent and they talk to you fine ;D English/England doesn't come into their vocabulary and we're all British/ from Britain/Brits Tell them you're Australian and they believe you  They think everyone in England (Britain) is from London Playing up to their stereotypes is fun though, putting on an accent which LordEffingham must possess and declaring your need for crumpets and tea followed by ''Jolly good show old chap!'' |
