[QUOTE="Taggsai"]In my house, we have 5 computers, so I plugged the ethernet cable into my labtop which is running from the Wireless router and it works just finethequietguy

Cool, can the laptop be off while you're playing Live, or do you have to keep it on? I don't want two things on at the same time.

no cause the laptop needs to be on so it can find the wifi signal to share with your 360.

Our router is in another room all together. If I was going to wire it to the router I would need about 60 feet of ethernet cable... not to mention the number of times that I would trip over the cord in the middle of the night on my way to the bathroom.laughlyn12

The only why that you can "piggyback" with the desktop, is if the computer itself is using wifi to get online. If so then yes as long as the the computer in question has internet sharing enabled then yes it should be able to "piggyback" a wifi signal to your 360. I used to do this with my laptop, worked great. However unless your computer is a mac I can't help you figure out how to do it but a quick google/youtube search should get you directions on how to do so.

As for Mercs 2, it had the destruction and it was awesome, which made mercs into mercs. Although the gunplay was not as amazing as Fallout 3's V.A.T.S.

So you admit that Mercs has disappointing gunplay, but good destruction? Well How is it going to have good destruction but bad gunplay, you can't have one without the other cause it will just feel incomplete. Also how do you know its not as good as Fallout 3???? How can you compare the two????

[QUOTE="Maidendude"] Yes it does, just check xbox.com it says it right on the description page for the arcade. Qwark161
