because if they didnt 360's internet would be terrible slow and the same for xbox they are simply looking towards the future i understand you distress, but its Microsoft
The Xbox is a Games Console developed by Microsoft it has its own Network "Xbox LIVE"
No Microsoft cut services for original Xbox games on Xbox Live but you can still play on your console just no live.
Microsoft's Windows Live lets you play cross platform games with Xbox players
I don't think you can play chipped games on xbox live because Microsoft can tell that it is copied
No. You earn gamer points playing games, Microsoft points are to buy things on the xbox live market place.
Not really. You only need an xbox live card. you can get them at wal-mart. you can, however purchase Microsoft points to download certain material once you have xbox live. it is optional. i don't really use Microsoft points much at all.
Yes, its Microsoft's attempt to bring the same standards to its PC games. Things like achievements and Microsoft points are carried over, and you use your xbox gamertag under windows live as well.
Xbox Live has been created by Microsoft cooperation.
You can play some Xbox games on the 360 but on April 14th Microsoft will be ending that feature for Xbox live but you will still be able to play them off line. go to Xbox.com to find the list of games that you can play.
Microsoft.
XBL stands for Xbox Live, and is Microsoft's online service that allows xbox users to play games online and download content from the marketplace.
Microsoft does not sell regular Xbox Cards.. Just says "XBox Live"
