1.Yes but not HD-DVD unless you buy the $169 add on

2. Yes but you can only play half of the Xbox 1 game list. Basically, the good ones. Search backwards compatibilty on xbox.com.

3.Um...My dad set it up, lol

4.Silver = free Download updates, DLC, Xbox Live Arcade, movies, music, TV shows

Gold = about $5 a month Play against or with others and get special DLC price offers

5.Dead Rising ($29) + Call of Duty 2 ($29) + Perfect Dark Zero ($29)

Gold has everything silver has AND it can let u play online multiplayer, which is a HUGE part of most xbox games, like shadow run, which is a no-campaign, multiplayer only game. Oh and the wire that comes with it is 20 ft. if that is not log enough u can buy a perfectly good 50 foot cable for 20$

Not even going to answer questions that are clearly displayed on the 360 box and can be asked in a store. As for what games you like, look in the bargain bins and the second hand market on Ebay.EnigmaticBeauty

1. The 360 can only play any DVD/PC music,movies,clips,pictures but not games unless the game is specifically made for 360 then yes.

2. I am sure someone above gave you a good answer, personally I don't really understand what you are saying since your sentences are short and unmeaningful.

3. Come again?

4. Silver membership offers just a taste of the online play. Gold membership offers just about everything, playing with people, talking with more then one person at a time etc etc.

5. Oblivion, Perfect Dark Zero, Saints Row are classic games and 'almost' good games. Check your local game store for information.
