No, you don't need one. It's just easier communicating to others via XBOX live with it.

Thank God I start my new job February 1st and I will be getting an X-Box 360 with my first paycheck because I really wanna get in on the action!

Pssst... send the package first. ;)

So I went and spent about $300 on my 360 yesterday. Got 5 games, 12 month subscription to Xbox live, A second headset, one of those keyboards you plug into the bottom of your controller so its easier to type stuff now, a set of rechargable battery packs with the charger and and a charger that you plug into the 360. And I signed up for netflix.

Games:
1) Let 4 Dead
2)Call of Duty 4
3)Call or Duty: World At War
4)The Orange Box
5)Project Gotham Racing 4(Free with the live subscription)

Planning on Getting Fallout3 after I've broken these games in a little bit. :D

Fallout 3 is immense! So is left 4 dead, which I'm gonna start saving up for.

AIDS nf

I will also try and do that.

I need to find out where my mom stuck the damn thing.

She cleaned for Christmas and moved it somewhere.

I sent you a request but who's AIDS nf?

my bf's gamertag.. he's always playing h3, gears2, and left 4 dead.

Cool, I play 2 out of 3 of those regularly. I'll have to add him.
