GamerTag
 
This is the proposition:
add the gamertag in the profile of the members, because I think most of the members here have an Xbox and most of them have Xbox Live, so why not

SeaRex 05-28-2003 04:00 PM

Sure! Sounds good to me.

Joshy 05-29-2003 03:10 AM

Great idea if i had a X-Box...

Alcar 05-29-2003 03:19 AM

Sounds fine! But no major changes are going to be made until Abe Babe returns.

So, we must wait :)

the idea came to me when I was exploded by SeaRex on Unreal, great playing

Enlighten me, Xbox Live, do you need a credit card and shtuffs? Also, is it easy to set up? Also, what games can you play on it? Also is it lag-ridden?

Xavier 05-30-2003 05:31 PM

you may buy stuff in the futur but at the moment everything is free.
It doesn't lag too often, it goes pretty good
and for the games go here:

I think it would be interesting to ask the members here what their online gaming names are, and what games they play online with...

Personally, I systemwide use one name for all my games online on all platforms...

Yes.

Yes. The hardest part I had was deciding on a name.
:

Well, there are a few games... with a few more coming out in the future. I suggest renting Unreal Championship, MechAssault, and MotoGP if you get Live... to see what you like. But definitely pick up Return to Castle Wolfenstien. The single player game is enough reason to buy it.

Also is it lag-ridden?
Depends. Most games tell you how the speed is in a server. However, with games like RTCW, there is either no lag at all, or so much lag that you can't even play.

I know Xavier already explained all of that, but I wanted to feel special. Zeruel is mega-pissed that Brute Force isn't on Live.

*curses Reece's fancy sig, as my PC doesn't like it*

Well I am back ... sure, it's a good suggestion, seeing there are many Xbox players on here. Mind you, Xbox Live doesn't even seem to be coming anywhere for us Australians, so we'll have empty fields in that area!

Do you guys think it should just be a field for the Xbox GamerTag, or should we make it a more generic online tag thing? I guess it would get too confusing if it were generic though, as some people use different names for different online games.

Xavier 06-03-2003 02:07 PM

well I think the general "Xbox GamerTag" would be very good

Xavier 07-07-2003 08:56 AM

sorry but what about my gamertag Idea... is it forgotten?

Joshy 07-07-2003 09:25 AM

It twas... but then you brought it back up again :D

Alcar 07-07-2003 10:21 AM

Yes, we did forget! You have to remind us, because we have so much useless information clogging up our minds we can't remember things :p

Anyway, it be their now.

Xavier 07-07-2003 02:43 PM

thank you for putting it up :fuzgrin:

GrigtheSlig 08-10-2003 09:58 PM

I'm thinking about getting XBOX live, isn't the first year free? I think I heard that somewhere. Can you change your name if you don't like it later in life?

I think you're stuck with the same one forever.

GrigtheSlig 08-10-2003 10:31 PM

That's not cool! Why can't you?

Mac the Janitor 08-10-2003 10:38 PM

Don't ask me. I don't even have Xbox Live.

GrigtheSlig 08-10-2003 10:41 PM

Oh, nether do I, that's why I'm asking q's to see if it's worth it.

oddguy 08-10-2003 10:58 PM

I'm planning on getting Xbox Live............someday. Hopefully my gamertag can be oddguy, but chances are it's allready been used. oddguy was used on AIM, so I'm oddestguy........that might work on Xbox Live if oddguy is taken! :D

GrigtheSlig 08-11-2003 05:28 AM

I'd probably be GrigtheSlig, just cause I like the name! Now you guys have made me want to get Xbox live!:fuzgrin:

Nor us NZ'ers!

oddguy 08-11-2003 07:24 AM

You guys can get one on the internet......can't you?

Leto 08-14-2003 04:16 AM

(I am speaking for the NZ'ers, not the Aussie's 'cause they can get broadband!)
The thing is, we can. But, we need a broadband connection, and this I cannot do. Unless, I get a sattelite improt from America or somewhere, but it isn't worth the trouble! I'll wait till it come to my humble old country. :P

I don't and I'd be surprised if 25% of active members do!
