    XBox 360 Questions

    I just got my XBox and been playing it all night, offline.

    I'm preparing to connect it to the internet, but I'm just wondering about 2 things.

    1) Do I get free month(s) of Xbox Live?
    2) If so, which? Silver, Gold?
    3) Can you take screenshots within games? (My XBox 1, being modchipped allows this, have MS thrown that capability in?)

    Thanks.

    1) Yes
    2) I think a month or two of xbox live gold
    3) PGR3 allows you in photo mode to take photo's and upload them to the Internet to download. Only instance that I know of with a 'screenshot' feature

    This thread really should have been in the microsoft gaming section

    I don't own a 360 yet but...

    1)If it comes with a game. Maybe something else to this too.
    2)Gold. Silver is free for everyone. Its worth paying for Gold if you want online play. Its not that much for a year iirc.
    3) dunno sorry

    Other people will probably clarify it for you a bit more particularly 1 and 3.


    BTW theres 3 things your wondering about .

    Check out Xboxlive.com. Use IE if your not already. FF doesn't display the styling properly for me.

    EDIT: Beaten to it.

    Well it's connecting fine through my router, just plugged it in, turned it on and its updating the system.

    So I have Silver for a fact, it's whether I have Gold or not. No games I bought come with a Gold Trial/free month(s)

    EDIT:



    Just signed up to silver, and it's said Im eligable for one months free subscription to Gold
