	Media center connection?
topshot_2k	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 21:32
	cant you use the media centre connection?

	Looks like you can only play .WMV files, So I would have to convert everything I wanted to watch which could be a right pain in the arse, Unless there would be a way of streaming stuff from my computer to the Xbox via a usb lead or something?

	nope its not too bad, in my house on 2mb i have had xbox, 2laptops and Pc all sharing the connection and no lag during gaming etc
Doug	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 13:48
	Does it hammer a Broadband connection? If i'm playing xbox live will other people in the house have lots of trouble browsing sites or downloading torrents?

	how about this for a cool feature: Playing on Xbox Live! with some mates (Project Gotham) and after a race going out to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee whilst still talking to them on the wireless headset :thumbs: I thought it was cool anyway :lol: Games look stunning on a normal TV as Topshot said, will look loads better on a HD set though :thumbs:
Doug	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 13:43
	Beacuse at the moment I have a laptop which I use as a TV/DVD player lol The main thing I will want to do is be able to connect my External HDD to the xbox and be able to browse through the folders and play .avi files I have etc. Will the xbox have DivX support etc?
dave17	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 13:40
	can connect to pc to stream video, audio and pictures straight from it :thumbs:
topshot_2k	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 13:35
	cool features include: can download new stuff in backgound such as pictures/levels/game updates, old games such as pacman etc can select your own music to play during games only HD games console out at the moment online gaming throught xbox live is brilliant fun completely wireless controllers and internet connection [Edited on 22-11-2006 by topshot_2k]

	Wont play US DVD's Yes it plays DVD's Yes USB No you cant copy them £30-50 new No looks 10x better than a ps2 on normal TV, looks superb on HD TV
dave17	posted on 22nd Nov 06 at 13:33
	Dont need anything else to play DVDs out the box. You can copy games, but need to hack the 360, which is dodgy if u want to use it on Live! Dont think you can copy them to the HDD Games are around £40 HD isnt essential, but what the 360 was built for

	Right i have a few unanswered questions that are bugging me! - Is there a way to remove the region coding so I can play american DVD's? - Can it play DVD's out of the box? or will it need that plug in DVD player? - I have a external HDD full of music and films etc.... Is there anyway I can link that to the XBOX to play stuff through the xbox to my TV? Bear in mind all the stuff is neatly ordered into folders etc. - How hard is it to copy games? If i got a HDD put into the Xbox could I rent a game and copy it to the HDD? - How much are games? - Is it wasted with a normall TV? do I NEED HD to play it? Any cool features I should know about? Really tempted to get one in Jan!! [Edited on 22-11-2006 by Doug]
