I am deciding weather to buy xbox 360.

One of the big factor that would prompt me to buy one
is the Online Gaming experience... in Malaysia

Hope you folks can assist me to make my decision....

What is the latency on Live for 1st person shooter games like COD 4?
Is it playable? Is there a 1-2 sec delay in firing a shot?

How about other games like beat-em-up, racing, etc... where latency counts as well.
Is it playable?

How easy is it to find players within SEA?

Hope you "gurus" can help. Thx.

Thanks for the feedback so far...


So when you guys say "playable" I assume
you mean generally no lag in terms for "instant feedback"?

Like no 1-2 sec delay or anything for "firing a shot"...

Is it often we get a MAS or SG host for xbox live?
Meaning lots of SG & MAS players around so far?

Am i able to test out xBox Live performance in Gamers Hideout?

I guess it's best I experience it my-self
as i do realize my defination of "playable" may be different from others.

No one has yet confirm with me if
there's a 1 sec delay in firing a shot if I play a 1st person shooter.


How's PS3 community and thier online performance...
similar to xBox Live?

Thanks for the feedback folks...
I tried out xBox Live at indeed it's instantaneous...

It's likely I will be joining you folks at XBL soon!
Now... if only i can find a place where xBox elite is in stock..

Does anyone know if there's any place that still sells COD 4?

What other games should i get for XBL experience?

Yup eismeal..... XBL is the key reason i decided to go get my xBox Elite this weekend.

After trying out XBL and seeing how playable it is (just try a while, hopefully it's really just little lag)
I decided to get one.

I was deciding on a PS 3 (reason for the Blu-Ray) but I guess I personally have
more reason to get an xBox (gaming, integration with PC, etc.)

Yes, the Arcade sounds like fun too.... i believe playing simple games (even if its just Chess)
online can be fun as well.
