I think you get a month free Gold when you get the premium pack.
At least I did.

Hey alex5813,

Once you get your Xbox 360, and once you register to XBox Live, you'll get a 1 month Gold free. But best register at the beginning of the month, so at least you can keep track of it.

Sure... join us in Xbox Live Gamers Group or Community for that matter. Check us up in the player's name list.

Here are some famous games played in Malaysian Community today:-

Gears of War
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon - Advanced Warfighter 2

But if you talk about playing with other players around the world, here's what games they play most of the time:-

Call of Duty 2 & 3
Fight Night Round 3
Gears of War
Halo 2 (Xbox, not the 360 version)
Texas Hold'em (Xbox Live Arcade)
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon - Advanced Warfighter 1 & 2
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
UNO (from Xbox Live Arcade)


I'm using Maxis Broadband... and it's very good playing LIVE. My friends use Streamyx and so far no problem... with a few normal lags lar...

Hi, I am planning to get myself a Xbox 360, the sales person recommended me with both modded and unmodded console.

The salesperson only briefly explain to me that modded consoles are unable to connect to the Internet or join Xbox Live, but he was unable to explain further when I enquire about the details....anyone able to assist to tell me why ?

But the package that he is selling me, is the Premium Console, that includes an original copy of N3 - Asia version. So despite I am using a modded Xbox 360, do I still encounter problem if I use an original copy of a game ?

And of course, what are the other drawbacks of a modded console?

Thanks in advance

once u regis a new gamertag/profile form the 360 itself, it'll auto 1 month gold trial. ( i think u can do this a maximum of 4 tries)

if u regis new gamertag/profile from xbox.xom 1st, then no more gold trial.

if u not ready to enjoy the gold trial yet, just create a profile and play offline 1st. smile.gif

Ok, thanks guys for the advise...

I am very new to this Xbox 360, been trying to dig more details, but is there anyone that can tell me what are the steps that I should do when i get my Xbox 360 for the very first time ?

This is my planned outline
- Get my Xbox 360 for the first time
- Direct connection to Broadband
- Get into Xbox Live
- Get a Gamertag / Profile ready
- Not subscribe to Gold membership yet (coz i wanna try out the functions and play offline first)

That's about it.... so is there anything i missed out or i've mistaken ? Please do advise.

After I register my Gamertag, can I come here to join the Live Gamers group ?

Thanks !

There's a one month free gold trial if you register for Live using your Xbox 360 online instead of registering from xbox.com icon_rolleyes.gif

Not true. I registered my Gamertag on Xbox.com first, then transfered the Gamertag on my Xbox 360. When I transfered the Gamertag to my Xbox 360, I was prompted to fill in my address & phone number, and after that I was given free 1-month Gold membership.

If they asked you for your add and phone number it means the registration you've done on xbox.com was incomplete.

If you've registered at xbox.com you would only have to recover your gamertag and it will be silver, with no free gold option available.

So you're giving false information. wink.gif

hhmm
this question appear everytime someone is buying a new 360, just undecided if they should go straight or brokeback.

why dont we pinned it up?

like

"NO MODDED CONSOLE DISCUSSION HERE"
or
"TOP 100 REASONS TO GO UNMODDED"

the person who ask this question did nothing wrong but i see this type of question way too many times already. laugh.gif
Just my 2 cents la smile.gif

haha, pinned this up for newcomers also good idea.

1. no modded discussion here, pls use google tongue.gif
2. pls enjoy ur piracy elsewhere tongue.gif tongue.gif
3. most of the ori supporters here already max their 100 friendlist, if really keen to play pirated games online, best start another group/friendlist lor, that way the old psp-console-flamewars wont be repeated.
