The progress of games has little to do with how intensive they are on connections. The only information that gets sent in an online game are player locations and actions, and neither of those require much data to be sent. Streaming a YouTube video is actually more intensive on your connection than playing a game like MW2.gameguy6700

Aren't video games, processors, and hardware of all kinds constantly being improved and becoming cheaper and broadband is going absolutely nowhere? If video game console technology (or any other online technology, for that matter) keeps advancing and becoming cheaper and nothing happens to broadband connections, aren't sacrifices of some sort going to have to be made or can everyone just play 1-player games on the futuristic consoles and PCs unless everyone suddenly becomes like Japan for speeds and has high quality broadband in everyone's homes or whatever? Or is everyone going to have to pay a thousand dollars a month in the future for connections that keep up with the rest of technology. It doesn't have to be any time real soon, really... Broadband and internet connections are not getting cheaper and when they advance they aren't advancing to cheaper technologies. Why is all technology advancing (AND GETTING CHEAPER) at 100 times the speed of broadband internet connections!? What problems could come up in the (not so near?) future if T* lines don't start getting real affordable? And why on BBC's list of top nations for broadband is the United States not even close to making the top 10? Latvia's in the top five, and a few years ago I wouldn't have known it existed if it weren't for cigarettes from Latvia that I smoked at the time. (Not that I know too much about the nations of the world, and I don't mean it as an insult to Latvia, but come on...). :cry:

The entire time I've been playing this game until recently I didn't pay much attention to the intel at the bottom, and thought that it was saying killstreaks don't add to your overall streak for some reason... One of the reasons I just started thinking about it is because on the leaderboards it says my highest streak is 18, and I've never boosted or anything so I'm sure that counts killstreaks. Plus I've seen people get nukes using helicopters and pave lows and everything. But when I looked it up on the internet to see if there were any weird details about it or anything, I came across ten different descriptions of how it works and what works... :?

EDIT: I've been using Google and I've found a lot of references to the Pave Low not counting toward the next killstreak... Unless they've patched it by now, it seems to be a definite problem.

Why does it say on the bottom of the screen as a hint that killstreak rewards don't add to your overall killstreak count or something along those lines, then I read online that it's something along the lines of crate killstreaks not adding to it, then a lot of stuff online says that killstreaks do add to your overall killstreak count but not care package killstreaks, then I read that some care package killstreaks do add to your overall count, then I read that the Pave Lows have some sort of glitch and they're supposed to but don't but other people say they do. It's ridiculous. Does anyone really know for a fact how they work exactly? I'm wondering how exactly the buildup of killstreak count works when it comes to using killstreaks.

I've seen people get nukes using killstreaks quite a few times now, but I don't understand why everyone disagrees about what works and how it works all the time.

Modern Warfare 2.

I don't understand. I never realized that they'd put the Xbox Live logo on games just because they have marketplace content. I thought that meant that they had multiplayer or online play features. That's kind of strange to me. It can't be just because it has achievements, because all Xbox 360 games have achievements and not all of them have the Xbox Live logo... but it's weird to me that they'd put the Xbox Live logo just because they have marketplace content, because that covers almost every game that I can think of.

I've been looking all over the place for an explanation. Why does it have the Xbox Live logo on the top-right of the box? I haven't seen one sentence anywhere that explains how it uses Xbox Live.

I had an original xbox that fell from a combined height of a pretty large stand and a television three times and kept working. My xbox 360 fell from the upright position to the flat position a few times, and not long afterward I got a RROD. The Kool-Aid I just splashed on the front of this one didn't get into the console though, it just splashed on the top and on the front and didn't get in anything so it should be in very good condition. I've left this one in the flat position since I bought it so nothing can happen to it. I'm hoping it lasts years, because I don't want to have to buy another one. :(

The one I just bought is an Arcade... I had a 20GB hard disk for my normal one, but I'm going to get a 60GB disk now. I don't understand why they have to have problems so often. Falling like mine did is a better reason than just not working, but still... I've had my computer for around 4 years and it still works perfectly. I haven't had one problem with it. They should figure out a way to make all their consoles last about 10 years if nothing happens to them. :evil:

If you've had to replace an xbox 360 console, how long did it take before it wouldn't work any more? If you haven't had to replace your xbox 360 console, how long have you owned it?

I'm on my second, my first one only lasted a few years. And a couple of nights ago a little bit of spilled Kool-Aid splashed onto the front of it...

:cry:
