If you head on over to www.xboxdubai.com there's a lot of people living in the UAE and using Xbox live there.

There's a whole forum dedicated to it, I won't go into explaining it here, but some other kind soul might.

x-box live is simply a microsoft hosted server dedicated to x-box multi player games. You'll need internet access, and silver embership just to log ob. To effectively do anything beyond get patches and updates for your x-box console, you'll need gold membership. You can then use the platform and use it to access internet via the x-box. The whole idea being that consoles are now doing what computers had over them. i.e. multiplayer gaming.

If you've ever played Gears of War online... you would not summarise what is perhaps the greatest invention of the 21st Century with such a sentence.

Surely, the first thing you need...is an Xbox?

Then you need:

1.Far too much time on your hands
2.A pasty complexion from being sat in front of a screen all night
3.No life
4.No life
5.Still no life
6.No friends

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Is that where cyber people dress up in trendy gear with, like, pointy shoes and those black shirts with all the gold writing an glitter an that on...and then go to war? Well, I suppose if you are going to fight, you might as well get dressed up for the occasion!

Er... no.

It's wear you run around with big flocking guns shooting the crapola out of a relentless enemy who will stop at nothing to absolutely flock you up.

It's actually one of the best games I've ever played, my only complaint is that it is too short. And in HDTV it looks glorious.

Is someone accusing me of dressing tastelessly? I resemble that remark!
I am a paragon of fashion and class, the fact that I choose NOT to dress 'a la mode' is purely mine!
