Xbox Live!

I had my first taste of Xbox Live this evening. Riaan (my brother-in-law) also got a 360 yesterday but last night we didnt manage to get any gaming going due to the router on my side blocking the Xbox Live traffic. All we could do was send some text messages. They came over here (we are housesitting for friends at the moment) this afternoon and brought my headset and my copy of Gears of War along. I managed to change some settings on the router and we were able to start a voice chat. We then played some Gears of War coop and just finished playing some Crackdown coop now. I don't have a Gold account at the moment and I'm just using a 48 hour Gold trial. I know for a fact that I am getting a 12 month Gold subscription for my birthday on Tuesday though and Im very excited about that. Here's to many hours of future Xbox Live gaming!
