A new 360 doesn't have any profiles on it.
I know I received a refurbished after sending mine in for repair. As of July or August of 07, 360s were supposed to have a HDMI port on them. When I got 360 back from repair center, had a serial number tag that was a bit crooked, and had a manufacture date of October 07. No HDMI port. Different serial number as well, by the way...
Wow.
First of all, System Link does as it implies. Links systems together. Consider a 'System' as an X-Box/X-Box 360 and the TV it is connected to. Each needs its own TV.
As to finding fun co-op games to play, there are actually a lot to play, especially considering original X-Box games as well. It depends more on the type of games you are looking for. A lot of FPS games have co-op, as you pointed out. There are many sports/racing games that do as well. Some 'party' games. Too many to list. It depends on what you are looking for.
I think you first need to explain your setup a bit better.
The typical setup would be a DSL or Cable Modem that physically connects to your phone or Cable line. That modem is then connected to a Router via a network cable. A Router typically has 4 ports to connect other devices, such as a computer, or 360, using network cables. A wireless router usually still has these 4 ports, as well as an antenna for the wireless connections. Sometime, and Router and Modem may be combined into one unit. The funtion of a router is to allow multiple devices to use one connection. So, given all that, what is your setup exactly? What connects to what?
so did u get urs back really fast too?russian4life
Same as above poster. Took about a week both times for me.
[QUOTE="APOLLOCJD"][QUOTE="FUBAR24"]nope the official one is the only way to get wireless to the 360DataDream
Actually that is not true, if you own a macbook or macbook pro there is a way to use it as a router for your 360. I don't know the full details but if you own a macbook you should try googling it.
Also there are 3rd party ones available as I posted links to above.
Not sure what the best option with your current setup is, but I was able to plan ahead. ****** makes a router that can also be setup as a wireless bridge. Router was only $30 to $35 each. I bought two. ($60 - $70) One is setup as my main router, upstairs, and the second is setup as a wireless bridge, and sits downstairs next to my 360. 360 connects to it with the supplied network cable. I have used it this way for 2 years, and have never had any problems. Have even had some game parties, and have had two other 360's connected to the downstairs router, since it does have four ports on it. Also, I stream pictures and audio from my PC to my 360 using the router setup. A lot more functionality, and saved money when the 360 adapter was $100.
There are definitely options to go wirelessly.
I've been streaming music to my 360 from my PC for over 2 years now. First used Windows Media Connect, then WMP11. In addition to music and video, with WMP11 you can also access photos on a PC to view on 360. A lot easier to show photos to family on TV instead of gathering around a computer screen.
So, you can stream music while looking at photos, or while playing games. 360 is a great machine.
