I joined xlink kai a few weeks ago. It is a great way to play via highspeed internet.

Instead of using live, you log onto the games using the "system link" on your xbox. Basically your xbox has to be hooked up via a router so kai can recognize it, and the game that you choose will show up in the system link function.

Pretty cool alternative, and very little lag that I saw....plus look at the library of xbox and ps2 games to play.

Thas cool but Xbox live isn't expensive. For the moey is worth it times 4.

I play live almost everyday , I find it so worth it.

avelanchefan,

no I didn't get it. My friends list was full and I had to clean it out a bit.Send another we should hook up on live.

swerve,

I'm a die hard Mechaasault player. I'm top 20 for over a year now. My best was #3 in the wolrd for a month.

I also have played many others. Halo 2 as of late but I'm not real into first person shooters.I lke 3rd person view.DOA ULTIMATE is sweet but alot of lag.

You can find me almost anynight playing Mech

It's hard not to like Halo2 or Burnout3- both are super addicting.
What about Sports?
NFL 2k5 is good, especially for the price. The whole 2k5 series is supposed to be decent. If EA is more your bag, then I'm sure you can find something in their plethora of offerings. Can't help you if fighting is what you crave- maybe check out the new DOA game.

I don't know I was about a hair away from Xbox a few months ago then my urge really died.
