Ok, the Online play on X360 is great. I have had it for a little while, and this is how I set it up:
1. Buy an ethernet cable, they're cheap. I bought a Belkin 5e Ethernet Cable for $15, it is 50ft., and it should be able to reach your FiOS server without a problem, I have FiOS and X-live runs at a steady 100mbps, without any connection failure, which you would get with the $100 wireless internet adaptor.
And, $15%26lt;$100...do the math.
2. It does cost money to get on X-Live, no there is no way to use it for free (I looked all over), and if you are going to go for Live, you have no choice, get Gold. Even though it sounds cheap, you will actually get free demos that are not available to silver members, news, information, free stuff for certain games, it is WORTH IT to go for Gold, and the only way to get on Live...it is only $50 for a year subscription anyways.
P.S. The Wii does cost money to use its online feature as well.
And if you want a fun Live experience, get more than Halo 3 (but yes, get it as well), I would advise Forza 2, COD:WAW, COD:MW, Test Drive Unlimited, GOW:1 %26amp; 2.
If you want me to elaborate, submit another question about the best games for 360...i'll help you out!How dose xbox online work?
Xbox Live. Costs $7.99 dollars for a month 19.99 for three months and 49.99 for a yr. There is no way to play xbox live for free legally. You can download stuff for free. You have to be connected to the internet to play xbox Live via a CAT cord or a wireless adapter - tho you tend to lag with an adapter. The Wii is a decent system the graphics suck in comparisson with 360 or ps3 tho. Some games for Wii are ok but most are par or sub par. Despite the cost 360 is in my opinion a better system. Hope this helped.
Costs $8 a month, and you should be able to just plug the wire into your router. There is no way to play online for free though. I have a wii and an Xbox 360, and my wii just sits around an collects dust. I'm pretty sure the PS3 has free online.
it costs 50 dollars for a year of xbox live. you can buy a wirelless adapter if you cant use a wire. I think you can get a free month of live when you connect a new 360 to the internet.
You can connect it to the router wirelessly with XBOX wireless adapter, however I prefer to hard wire anytime I play on-line. Also, check out www.fixfiber.com for lots of fios links
1st by a adapter of you can use the internet cable they sent u with the xbox
2nd u hook the connection u want if your goin wireless the adapter is goin to cost u 100 dollars yea alot of money
3rd by a wireless router and a modem and hook them up to you computer. it should go computer modem and then wireless router ( p.s if u buy a adapter an u hook it up to the back of your 360 the light on the adapter should be green of else u don't have a connection)
4th have to make a yahoo acount so that when u sign up for xbox live it will say u have to put in your yahoo acount comcast acount, and your password
5th after u sign in a account of some sort go to sign up for xbox live and fill in all the info it needs you to (xbox will not scam u i swear)
6th once your signed in put in halo 3 odst beastlest game ever and meet some new friends (my gamertag Mr Ranatan Dran) if u want more info message me and i will help u out with anything i can
7th have fun and dont be a poor sport when u lose its just a game and u will do better next time if there is a next time if you want to verse me in gears of war 2. im black so we play videos to lata boys and ont forget the friend request me. ( 1 month 7.99, 3 month 19.99, and a year is 49.99 it include a month free of xbox live gold for free once u log on)
