That's why you need a memory card or the HDD to use XBL

the dashboard and the xbox guide are apparently two separate things so im guessing that one is stored internally while another is hardrive. If the dashboard uses all of the xbox resources while the guide uses some then im guessing the dashboard is coming of the hdd or something while the guide is internal. especially since the dashboard can be updated and changed and stuff. Also The fact that the guide is accessible at ALL times even when in the dashboard.

That's not quite what I meant.... I mean, if you go to your friends' house, and all 4 of you want to sign in with your Gamertags, do you swap out each HDD and or memory card? I'll assume MS isn't putting 4 HDD ports on the thing. I'll spell out my question a bit more clearly: How do 4 people get their GamerTags on another's 360?

whats with this? You guys love the xbox1 and not being able to sign into your xbox live account wasn't ever a problem or evena concern... but, all of a sudden, you are dying to be able to, for some reason, sign into your xbox live account on someone elses xbox360.

Well id think there would be a login screen where you would have to enter your gamertag and "password". Then once loged in it would probably get all your info from the xbl server... that is if they allowed loging in from other xbox360s.

Just like how it was discussed in it's own thread... the thing with the controllers is with those other consoles they reinvented the controller and like the PS this one isn't really that different that's why some people think it's dumb not to support the old one... I am one of those people... if they added a Z button or something then OK there is a new function you can't use now... but all they did was add that gay ass "guide" button that I don't see being used in a game (maybe I'm wrong though).

So if it is so similar to the old one then why the F*** does it matter that you can't use the old one!? I think ms' stance is that the controller is a refined version of the first one, so why make the old ones compatible the new system? The world is not gonna end if you have to buy some new controllers for a new system. Isnt that what we been doing for years now!? Oh I can see myself using that guide button quite a bit; for music purposes (custom soundtrax in every game is a dream come true

)

word, that was a rather ignorant statement (ignorant as in uninformed). I think I could spend $30 bucks elsewhere... and if you have 4 controllers that's 120 to spend elsewheres... that's like 3 games... btw, the PS2 refinded their controllers too all the buttons became analog (execpt start and pause) yet they still didn't shove it up our arse for 120 in new controllers and accesories... btw, it's not just controllers some people have spent quite a bit of money on steering wheels and dance pads and all sorts of things that would be nice if it all came over cleanly. I'm willing to bet some people have 200-300 in accessories they would like to be able to bring to the new system. Unless you are volunteering to donate money to use that don't have it to blow on all new accessories.

You can buy a budget wired controller as well for Xbox 360. Most likely 360 games will only support 360 peripherals, so the old controllers would only work with Xbox games.
