Xbox Live

So, last night I picked up the new version of the Xbox Live kit. After I struggled through the setup process and input all my billing information using the bloody controller, I was pleasantly surprised.

Tetris Worlds is a blast, MotoGP worked really, really well, and Mechassault was awesome. I’m expecting a copy of Wolfenstein today or tomorrow. I’ll be sure to let you know how I feel about that.

Voice support is a little odd for the most part. I’m a little uncomfortable hurling insults to someone across the country that I don’t even know, but apparently that’s just me. Maybe with a more team oriented game, it will show up as more useful.

I’m really looking forward to good football and baseball games for Live. A hockey game could be very fun too.

My gamertag is Willski. Look me up if you’re online. I’m going to hork a copy of Ghost Recon from a friend this week and see how that is. It seems to be widely regarded as the best Live game.
