You could connect to the Internet through your PC. Do you have a spare ethernet port on your PC and how far from your console will your PC be? You would also need a cross-over ethernet cable.

I'd highly recommend you purchase an Xbox 360. As an earlier post mentioned - such games as Fight Night and Ghost Recon are superb.

Asad the standard connections for networking are ethernet connections. It's not going to be too much bother as you could always but a network card for your PC (should only be around £10) and then buy a cross over ethernet cable (again only a few pound from places such as Cable Universe). This would enable you to setup a network bridge.

Before you do anything else take a look at:

The above link is for the original Xbox but the information still applies for the Xbox 360 too.

Is they more players on the 360 than the PC version?

It's just because it says on here http://www.sigames.com/news.php?type...rticle_id=1203 that they's 280,00 and on the FM 06 article it says 275,000 +

Where yah get that from? I'm not saying it's necessarily untrue, but I doubt a firm of idiocy like GAME can produce pre-ordered games in thep ost a day early like Gameplay can.
