REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 The recent discussion of Halo vs Counterstrike got me thinking about playing on LIVE, and I came to the conclusion that it would be most excellentable to play with fellow LFers. Of course the first thing you need to do is post your gamertag (so that someone can invite you to a friends list and let you join games) for example mine is... "J 7RED7" (with space, no quotes) I'll have to recheck the exact procedure to add a friend (it's not too complicated when you're actually doing it though), but basically one person sends a friend invite to the other who reads the message and either accepts or declines, if accepted, both users will appear in the other's friends list and can be invited into games. I can help anyone who has trouble with this. Pretty much all you need to do to add new friends is post your gamertag, but it would also be helpful to post which games you own/rent/etc. so someone can see if you even have the same games. Other helpfull info... Do you have a Headset? It makes playing online easier. Do you prefer to host games or join them? Can you bring a party or do you usually play alone? J 7RED7 Most commonly played LIVE-accessable games: Halo2, Ghost Recon, NFS:MostWanted I play at an arcade and have access to other games. I don't play them as much, but they have a decent selection and I can be persuaded to play almost anything:D Headset: Yes I play on a decent (4Mb) connection which allows me to host fairly well. I'll probably be alone, but I have access to a few consoles and could probably convince a couple friends there who have LIVE to join in. I'll try and make this organized (if anyone even bothers with this thread:lol: ) so any suggestions would be great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I have an XBox, but don't have a Live account. I just can't justify the cost for the amount I play. I'll unfortunately be sticking to my (limited) PC MP gaming. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I have an XBox, but don't have a Live account. I just can't justify the cost for the amount I play. I'll unfortunately be sticking to my (limited) PC MP gaming. Sorry! Same here. I have xbox but I don't play it near enough to pay for xbox live. Plus I already pay monthly fees for WoW so I can hardly afford it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hallucination Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Like everyone else here with an Xbox I don't play with mine enough to warrant getting Live. Besides I think WoW is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiestainabox Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 For those who don't want Xbox live, can't afford it, or Have a modded xbox, there Xlink Kai Evolution Seven, which works with any xbox, and is free. The only limitation is that it only works with System Link Games. So counterstrike, and halo are definatly on that list. My Xlink tag is iNutter if your interested.
