Well, I just bought a used 360 off of ebay.  However, I have a few questions and I was wondering if you guys could help me out.

1) Can I get on xbox live without the harddrive?  Will the 64mb memory card suffice for that and setup?

2) Can I pay for xbox live monthly or do I have to buy the 6 month subscriptions?

3) If you could only choose one game right now, what game would it be?  I need to buy a game, and I'm teetering between GoW, Crackdown, GRAW2, LOTR BfME, and Chromehounds.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Heya people

I recently brought a Nyko Intercooler, and a Pelican Fan Stand.  The problem with the Nyko Intercooler only resulted in the first batch, ever released I heard.

So I went ahead and brought them, I plugged up the Nyko Intercooler correctly, and the console and the fans did'nt boot, I thought the Intercooler was broken, so I took it off, asked friends, and they said that they had the problem, wiggle it around abit, so I did and after 3 days of trying to get it to work, I gave up and started using the Fan stand.  So I plugged that up and great it works, cause it only uses the AC on the mains, not the 360, and yet it don't keep the console cool, the console still warms up the same and still feels hot.  So I don't think it works, but the fans are spinning cause I felt the air when I lifted the console up.

I plugged the Nyko up to my friends and instant working, I did'nt know how or why it works on his, and not on mine.  And his console is working great now for a week.  The console feels like it's not even on when it's been on all day, it's completely cold.

Could someone help me on why it would'nt work in mine, and did in my friends, also help me with the fan stand on why my 360 still warms up, and not keep it cool.  I need to keep it cool.

I been thinking of opening up the 360 so you see inside, and leaving it open, so air actually gets inside it, what you lot think.

Thanks in advanced

when i had mine (before i got my intercooler which works great) it used to heat up like yours. but i found out after playing for hours straght with a friend that it takes time to cool. so after about 2-3 hours of playing it was actually pretty cool.

those are good prices, i'd do that in a heartbeat2ndWonder

same, i had to buy both of mine for a total of $40

[QUOTE="burnout4"]1- How does a Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit works? Devallyk

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.

it is basically what he said
