sure.... ill do it quickly i am at work.....
it is only 4 v 4 with a style like counter strike (one life, when you die you spectate)...there are 3 or 4 different types of online matches ranging from attack and defend to deathmatch in both ranked and non ranked formats
the best part of the online is 2 player co-op... i rarely play 4v4 although it is fun coop is better (you just play the regular game with someone on xbl)...
i still think Rainbow six vegas online is better but GOW is still a great game on or offline.... |

That berzerker thing in the second level had me shook. (hint: become a matador so it can knock down the wall for you) also the wretches piss me off. I still am horrible at throwing the grenades. I like the halo grenades alot better. Any tips on how I should throw them?

You have to aim them... its fairly easy but it sucks because you leave yourself open to being shot

its about 100.00 which is ridiculous imo...but it just connects to your internet and works the same way a wireless adapter in a laptop would work...simply put connects you to internet wirelessly?
i need one but im old fashioned...would rather have hard-wired which means I gotta run it down through the ground and across the basement ceiling and back up....gonna be a nice saturday project sometime. |

so you have a wireless router right? If so, just move the router and modem to another phone jack in the room youll be playing in. Since its a wireless router and I assume you guys are using laptops, then it shouldt be a problem for the others to still connect.
Once you've moved the router and modem run a wire from one of the ports(behind the router) and connect it to the xbox.
Thats how Ive got mine setup. |

I forgot to ask again about the ONline play.
So how many would be interested in creating a LG party?
How many have Halo?
How many have GOW? |

^^ true.
As a matter of fact, Theres even issues with the wireless mic online. At times, At least on GOW, people cant hear you even though your mic icon is displayed. Had the same issue on Halo2 where the feed was choppy. I have to unplug and reconnect to get a good signal. On GOW I havent been able to communicate with ANYONE. I can hear them , but they cant hear me. |

LuminousEight is my gamertag if anyone wants to play. Just add me and lemme know you're from LG.
Or hell, PM me on here and tell me to go get on the 360, I'm up for some Gears most any time.

I'm using a desktop, I dont have a laptop. The downstairs computer is the one that has internet service and the modem and router.... my computer is upstairs and basically steals internet from the downstairs computer..... btw I am not exactly the most computer savvy person in the world....
So someone tell me the best couse of action. I'm assuming the wireless thing that Xbox makes for $100

sou you have a wireless card installed on your desktop right?
If so, you can always remove the card from "your" computer and install it on the computer downstairs. That way, youll be able to move the modem/router into your room, and the computer downstairs will still be able to get internet access. |
