Anyone know the requirments for xbox live? Like the upload/download rate that it needs. 2 way cable is finally available in my area and is getting installed today, but I noticed in World of Warcraft, my latency was alot lower then usual. I ordered the economy 2 way package which is 3mb downstream and 128kb upstream....will that be ok to play on or will I need to upgrade it?

Those numbers are better than I get, youll do fine in 99.9% situations, but dont host.

Well I just tried half life 2 death match and it seemed to be working fine with no lag...other then the simple fact of me being horrible lol. Guess I'll have to find time when I'm not playing World of Warcraft to get xbox live

    Yeah right lol I'll pretend you didn't say that. I have no friends really, so I can do both. also got another question, I've had Live Silver, but I don't like my screen name....is there a way to change it without making another account because I don't want to lose my achievments.
