Hi all, new to the xbox scene after finally getting one

can anyone advise how to get an xbox live account - been to xbox page but only showing everything for a 360 now - and it'll be another year a least before i kind buy one of them Sad

also is the gaming scene still strong online for old xbox, or is it mainly for the 360 now

regards
walkerx

Hey man, welcome to the site. First off, follow this link, it'll get you started on Xbox live!

http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/live/howdoigetxboxlive.htm

The gaming community is still very strong for Xbox, just because the 360 is out doesn't mean us Xbox-ers have all gone into hiding, lol.

Anything else, don't hesitate to ask mate. Cool

Indeed. I still see them around in shops, I'm sure you can get one.

You can get em from Play.com too if you can't find one, starter kit comes with PGR 2.

Very Happy

thanks peeps

I got with the xbox the following classic games

Fable - Lost Chapters, PGR-2, Halo 2, FORZR Racing

Cost me £50 for those plus the xbox from argos

I've also purchased burnout revenge, and nfs carbon. well I actually ordered underground 2, as would BOGOF and for £10 for 2 games new, i thought nice deal - but they sent me out carbon by mistake.

i've picked up a couple of 2nd hand games as well, and wife's bought me a couple of new ones of ebay.

In total spent about £90 and got xbox, 11 games, extra logic 3 controller, dvd kit, max drive (16mb), ps2 k/b and mouse adapter.

I think £90 well spent... Smile

The only unfortunate thing is that they've stopped releasing new games for Xbox Sad

Still, I'll never sell my xbox ever, even when I get a 360. I'm even considering getting a 2nd new xbox, for when the ol' girl finally kicks the bucket.....

Long Live Xbox 1!!!
