Xbox Live
 

 

LIVE it up, you won’t regret it

Whether blasting in the amazing Geometry Wars or shooting the breeze with your pals in a Private Chat while sharing favourite tracks, Xbox LIVE is the ultimate entertainment chill out destination. It’s a unified community where you can always find your friends to share what you enjoy the most, accessible via a simple broadband connection to your Xbox 360 console. Every Xbox 360 console comes with a free Xbox LIVE Gold trial, so you can easily get a taste of what’s in store. Xbox LIVE also provides the ultimate way to expand your games with new content and updates available all the time.

Always something new

You have friends on LIVE
Connect to Xbox LIVE and your Gamer Tag makes your presence known. Friends already on LIVE will know you’re around for some good times, likewise you’ll know when a friend has just arrived. Having friends available on LIVE means the start of today’s quest for getting the most out of Xbox LIVE, and usually the first place to head is Gamer Profiles to see what everyone has been up to while you were away.
You’re invited to a game
Gaming with friends via Xbox LIVE is terrific, especially if some of your buddies are in other parts of the world. Playing co-op or competitively in multiplayer games via Xbox LIVE can provide some unforgettable experiences, and sending or responding to invites is a cinch. You needn’t worry about unwelcome guests either with complete control over your friends list. Old or young, you can have the experience that suits you by choosing your own Xbox LIVE Family Settings.


 

You’re invited to a Private Chat
You can send text messages and voice messages to friends via Xbox LIVE, which is great for when you’re not around. However, if you and a pal are sharing the network together, the fastest way to catch up is by requesting a Private Chat. The headset lets you talk to each other one-on-one, so you can brag about last night’s high scores while playing a game, watching a DVD movie or to get their thoughts on what you’re listening to on your play list. You might also want to recommend something new on Xbox LIVE Marketplace; the place to be for all kinds of terrific downloads.

Download free game demos
Xbox LIVE Marketplace is where all the download excitement happens, with new content arriving fast and often.Playable demos of upcoming games, movie trailers, music videos plus all the Gamer Pictures and Themes to personalise your Xbox 360 world are updated regularly, so it’s always worth a visit. Xbox LIVE Marketplace is also home to the hugely popularXbox LIVE Arcade where modern favourites such as Geometry Wars join coin-op classics that include Street Fighter II and Smash TV. You’ll find plenty of content to download free of charge, especially handy to experience new games first-hand, but buying is made easy using Microsoft Points.

Free Xbox LIVE Gold trial with every Xbox 360.
