Xbox Live And Online Gaming

October 10th, 2009 at 03:32pm Under xbox 360+ xbox gaming+ xbox live

The Xbox 360 currently offers users with the opportunity to interact with each other, by utilizing the add-on function that is the Xbox Live. If you’re an Xbox Live member, you are immediately included in the chat list. Therefore, you are able to chat and discuss any point with your friends and family through the Xbox 360 headset. Moreover, you can interact and plan a gaming throwdown with countless other Xbox gamers. Xbox Live can also permit you to shop in the Xbox Live Marketplace, download extra video game features and even access the preview to videos.

If players are enticed by these features and want to become an Xbox Live member, then there are two accounts to select from, divided into two distinct services, these are the – silver and gold accounts.

Firstly, the silver service is just the free version of the Xbox Live. Using this version, gamers can easily go online and download the video games. In addition to this, gamers are even given the capacity to use your very own voice to talk and meet with other Xbox Live gamers. However, this is all the Xbox Live silver provides customers with. If you’re searching for the best Xbox Live experience,the Xbox Live gold account is what you need to go for.

Lastly, the Xbox Live Gold option has additional functions that make it an awesome way to game onthe internet. Apart from the awesome Xbox Live functions, it will provide the users with a bunch of further add-ons. There’s augmented chat compatability, as well as interaction with many Microsoft products, including messenger and other chat and video programs. The most prominent function of the Xbox Live gold is the method in which your web avatar is displayed to the reast of the community. Each account is allowed to create a distinct ‘motto’ displaying to other gamers online, even linking them to Facebook. In addition, you’re also able to hold a record of your achievements. As you play more and more you gradually forge a rep, and if gamers warm to you they are able to rank you positively, making it much better to avoid interacting with gamers holding bad feedback.

Players can also build a full friends list that will list all your chosen buddies. It will also tell you when any of your friends go online. There’s also a recent player list which will record the last 50 friends that you have played with.

The Xbox Live is as good as the Xbox gaming will get. Not only does it provide you with some great gaming but it will also provide you with the opportunity to share your experiences with other users!

Evil Xbox on sale Friday 13 March – Zombies not far behind

February 25th, 2009 at 02:17pm Under collectibles+ xbox 360 games+ xbox gaming

Microsoft seems to be trying to create a Halo-type frenzy by releasing a Resident Evil 5 themed Red Xbox 360 Elite Console to coincide with the launch of the game on Friday 13th March.

If you’re not in the market for a new box, there’s also a Limited Edition Red Wireless Controller on sale now, though I prefer the RE Controller Faceplate – and it’s cheaper.

The release of RE5 seems to have flipped a switch somewhere because there appears to be an almost zombie-like determination to get on the bandwagon. Just a cursory look through Amazon’s catalog for RE5 related items found the following: the Elite Console, Wireless Controller and Controller Faceplate already mentioned; Resident Evil 5 standard edition and the Collector’s Edition; two different sets of Resident Evil faceplate and skinz – one featuring the Logo and the other the Characters; a cloth wall scroll featuring Chris and another featuring Sheva; The Complete Official Guide to Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 5 Limited Edition Collector’s Guide: The Complete Official Guide (really); dvds of Resident Evil: Degeneration (2008) and Resident Evil – Extinction – Widescreen Special Edition (2007); and a Canvas Messenger Bag to stuff it all in.

Phew.

Exclusive GTA IV Zombie content “just a joke”

October 25th, 2008 at 01:57pm Under rrod+ xbox 360 games+ xbox gaming+ xbox live

GTA IV is zombie freeIt seems that the announcement on Rockstar’s site that there was to be exclusive Zombie content for Grand Theft Auto on the Xbox 360 was just a Halloween joke.

But the joke may turn out to be on them – quite a few people seem to’ve been looking forward to this new twist to an old game. Maybe they’ll have to do it anyway – if they can. Anyway, don’t hold your breath, it’s not going to happen any time soon, if at all.
