Question about Xbox 360

1- How does a Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit works? burnout4

It's a stand alone unit that charges two battery packs at once. It's preferable to some people over the plug and charge kit because, with the plug and charge, you're wiring your controller to the console. With the Quick Charge, you remove the battery pack and stick it in the charge unit.

2- How many rechargeable battery pack the wireless controller need?burnout4

It needs one to run the controller. It's best to have two - one that you're using, one either charging or charged for when the one in the controller runs down.

3- What does a Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter do? burnout4

It receives a wireless internet signal from your wireless router (assuming you have one) so you can connect to Xbox Live without running cables to the console. If you don't have a wireless router, it's not something you need.

4- How does a Xbox 360 Live Wireless Headset works? And where/how do i plug it? burnout4

It works by allowing you to talk to people and send voice messages over Live, either through the Dashboard or within a game. It's essential to online play, especially for team based games like Gears of War and Rainbow Six: Vegas. It plugs into the bottom of the controller.

5- How does the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller works? And where/how do i plug it? (Just to be sure)burnout4

You don't plug wireless controllers into anything. They're wireless. You synchronize the console with the controller (instructions in the manual - it's really easy), and you're good to go.

6- What's the deferents between the Memory Card And Hard Drive except for the memory? burnout4

Well, the Hard Drive is just better in all respects. It's almost twenty times the memory size of the card, for one thing. For another, you need it for playing backward compatible Xbox games (the memory card wont allow it). With the number of downloads available on the Marketplace, you need as much space as you can get. Many downloads, including almost all trailers, videos and demos, are far, far too big to fit on the card. And the prices for the amount of space available make the choice simple - forty bucks for 64mb, a hundred bucks for 20gb. Not a tough choice.

Am planing to get a Xbox 360 and i want some question about it to buy only the very useful Accessories.

1- How does a Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit works?

I dont have one, but it is a stand-alone charger. The other charger you can buy basically is a cable that you plug into your 360's controller ports to charge your batteries. This is good because if your battery is dead, you can still use your controller, it just has to be plugged in. But then it is bad because your 360 has to be on to charge the controller, so if you dont want to have it plugged in while you play to charge (the whole point of a wireless controller), you have to leave your 360 on for a few hours just to charge your controller. I wish I had gotten a quick charge instead.

2- How many rechargeable battery pack the wireless controller need?

Depends on your playing habits and number of controllers. I virtually never play two player on one console, so while I have two controllers, I only really use one. I only have one battery pack now, and just charge my battery when Im not playing. If someone else does come over, they use AA batteries. As stated above, I think im going to pick up a quick charge eventually and get another battery with it.

3- What does a Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter do?

If you have a wireless router, and don't want to hook your 360 up to live via a cable (if your router supports it-most do), then this will allow you to connect to live. From what Im told, any traditional USB wireless internet adapter will not work bc it lacks the 360-specific drivers. Someone may have found a work around for this, if they have, please let me know. I have an adapter Id like to use but dont think I can. What you can do, instead of spending $100 for the first party adapter is pick up an internet bridge. basically it picks up the wireless signal, but then plugs into your 360, or other device, with a standard cable and as far as your 360 can tell, you are on a wired network. Alot of them are still $80 or so but you can find them on sale sometimes for good prices, I got one for $50 and it works great, I just want to use it for something else.

4- How does a Xbox 360 Live Wireless Headset works? And where/how do i plug it?

They plug into a port on the bottom of your controller, they work as youd expect, no suprises.

5- How does the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller works? And where/how do i plug it?

you press a button on your 360 to pair it with your system. They come with a battery pack which requires you to put AA batteries in it. They dont plug in unless you have the standard charger I mentioned above (doesn't come with either version of the 360)

6- What's the deferents between the Memory Card And Hard Drive except for the memory?

Memory cards are much smaller, but allow you to take your saves with you. You really want the harddrive. The harddrive allows you to download demos and other things. The price for the harddrive is $100 vs the memory of $40. Some people may want a Memory card as well as a harddrive (I dont think its necessary), but you definately want a HDD. The nice thing about the HDD is that it is detachable so if you get one of the defective units, you at least wont loose your saves or profiles. Im sure HDD fail sometimes, because they do from time to time regardless of the device, but I haven't heard anyone complain about it. In fact, Id expect the memory cards to be more likely to corrupt, Ive had bad experiences with console memory cards, but none with harddrives..

SEE ABOVE

Also, it seems that you may be considering getting the core system instead of the premium one. DONT. The premium system comes with the wireless controller, which you really want (core doesnt) - $50, It comes with an HDD - $100, and it comes with a headset. -$not sure.

[QUOTE="burnout4"]ONE LAST QUESTION 7- If i get a premium system, is there gonna be a rechargeable battery pack in the box?Death_Masta187

Exactly, it comes with a pack that you put AA batteries in, so you can start playing wirelessly from day one with nothing but the system and any games you may pick up.  fortunatly the quick charge comes with a battery though.
