I have one of the first model of the core xbox to ever come out, and now that im finacially able i have what it takes to pay for xbox live and i have a wire internet with high speed power. I have a 1 month trail to xbox live and to my surprise everytime i try to play DOA 4 or Smackdown or Virtua Fighter, it says disconnected from messenger, then it tells me disconnected from xbox live and the best connect i got was 5 minutes then i get cut off. I thought it was my cords but so i tried it on my Ps3 but everything works fine on my Ps3 no drops, no disconnection nothing. I state that because if it works on my P3 it should work on my xbox also. I had my xbox for 2 flippin' years and i dont wanna give em up because i figured out his connection was faulty, i will buy another one but that is totally unfair, i was one of the lucky ones to still be proud to have his 1st n only one. I really want to play everyone on both side of the spectrum Ps3 and Xbox, so what the hell do i do get rid of my xbox 360 thats been through thick and thin or get rid of em and buy another if the connection is improved which will completely f'd up because it will feel like stabbin' a buddy in the back. idk help me out
