I have several newbie questions to ask. I just bought Xbox 360 4days ago.
1) On my xbox 360 limited edition box (asia version), stated that free Xbox Live Silver membership and include one month Xbox Live Gold membership. How i gonna enable the xbox Live Gold with one month free?.
2) How do i change the picture (avatar) in xbox live gamercard provided by xbox.com other than what they have provided in the gamer picture?
3) My xbox is NTSC/J. How do i know which game support for my xbox?.
4) What is region free and region locked?. I have a game that prompt for region locked, is there any other way to enable it?
p/s: If others want to ask noobie question, u can also post it here.

Ohh ic on the top right corner stated NTSC/J. I already read that thread, just want to gain more info. By the way thank u for your valuable information  This post has been edited by ron4: Dec 29 2006, 12:39 AM |

Another question.
How do i know that my xbox 360 is 1st batch or 2nd batch?. I bought mine on December 2006.
How to prevent from 3 Red Light Ring Of Death? (ex: Every 2 hours playing, rest for about half an hour. Or intercooler?)

I try to connect Gears Of War to join online battle. But every time i do that, this error message appear
Cannot play online
Your current gamer profile settings do not allow playing online games. To continue, all signed-in gamer profiles must be allowed to play online.
What does it mean actually?, bcos i checked my gamer profile is already connected to xbox live. How do i connect to play GoW online with others, or maybe somebody need to invite me first?. By the way my GoW game is original one. Kindly please advice.
