I'm still a little confused on live. If I buy the $400 XBOX 360, will I have Live forever, or is it only for a couple of months before I have to pay for it?

1 month free trial. Once the trial's done you're "demoted" down to Xbox Live Silver. Gold costs 5.99 a month or 49.99 a year. If you're going to pay for it, pay the yearly, it's a better deal.

And what would Live Silver be? The Xbox Live Silver card-Is already built into your system. In less words, free. This live, you really can't do anything but have a buddy list (for chats). You can acess Xbox Live Marketplace, to download Demos and Videos, but some that are Free on Gold, have a price on Silver. Also, you can not play multiplayer on Silver (Online) Xbox Live Gold- * Great online multiplayer gameplay * Exclusive Xbox Live Marketplace downloads and content * Revolutionary TrueSkill™ matchmaking * Enhanced gamer feedback * Enhanced friends list management |

Do you think I could maybe like download updated sports games rosters via Live Silver? Or would I need Live Gold?

Basically, with Silver you can do anything except for actually playing online games.

Prey is really good so far. The weapons and how they look, how they are alive is awesome. Plus there is nothing like walking on the ceiling having a shoot-out with an enemy who is on the floor, also seeing a living breathing ship vomit is quite gross but interesting. The spirit walk is also interesting, you leave your body with a bow and collect spirits and reach places your body can't but your body can be harmed while in this mode. Overall I am impressed and the game is quite unique and very different than your average FPS....I'm also digging the whole native american setting and beliefs. Gameplay is solid, voice acting is solid, the storyline is solid so far and the graphics are pretty good.

In Oblivion... When you join the Theives thing, it states, "Amount Fenced" I went to a fence guy and sold him a bunch of stuff... and it still states amount fenced 0. What do I do ?

When I fenced I just did all at one time (I fenced in like 1,200 at once) so then I didn't have to fence anymore over the force of the rest of the missions. |

I just played Prey and had one of the most unique game experiences ever. I walked into a room with a stand in the middle with a glass box on top, well inside the box was what appeared to be a little planet. Well I then went through the portal in the room and I ended up on the little planet inside the glass box, so a enemy walks in and he is a giant (I shrunk) and he sees me in the glass box. So he then shrinks himself somehow and it was me and two enemies battling it out on the little planet.

The gameplay is what is mind blowing so far, the walking on walls, spirit walk and everything is awesome. I'm loving it so far. Ohh and for some people who might think this game is horror, I don't see where it is at all. The game might be somewhat dark in places but I don't think it's horror. Man this game is really unique and something that is refreshing in the FPS genre. |

Fence means sell right.. ? Yes sir. Do you know if it goes by each time you go to Ongor the weary, or total ? Like if I sell him 2,000 gold of stuff, and come back later, it says 0 fenced, is that for each time or overall ? (also is Ongar who you went to ?) |

(also is Ongar who you went to ?) I sold 1,200 all at once and never sold anything else because I had more than enough fenced all ready. I forgot who I sold it too, the guy in Bruma so yea I think it's who your talking about. |

I seen on Gamespot that Half-Life 2: Episode 2 is coming to Xbox 360 and PS3. Hopefully it include the full game of HL2. Great news.

Half-Life 2 confirmed for Xbox 360, PS3Speaking at EA's annual summer press event, Valve's Gabe Newell revealed that Half-Life 2 would be headed to the Xbox 360 and PS3, bolstered with extra content and presumably, plenty of opportunities to kill people with high velocity toilets. The full console package will be comprised of Half-Life 2, Episode One, Episode Two, Team Fortress 2 (it still exists!) and an entirely new title, Portal.
According to Gamespot, Team Fortress 2 now sports a cartoonish art style and a 60's spy feel akin to that of Monolith's No One Lives Forever -- certainly a description you'd never expect to be about a game from Valve. The developer is also trying new things with Portal, which incorporates a rather imaginative gun and encourages you to blast Prey-like portals into floors and walls for all manner of object shifting, puzzle solving hijinx.
The console versions of Half-Life 2 (along with all the extra goodies) are expected to launch alongside the PC game's second episodic expansion. Barring unforeseen code thefts and other delays, that means they'll be out by the end of the year.I'm just clarifying what Random Weddle said.

Nothing beats using a gravity gun to throw road signs at random bad guys.
Team Fortress 2 sounds bad ass.
