Live hits 6 million users 4 months early Posted Mar 6th 2007 12:00PM by David Dreger Filed under: News, Xbox Live GamerscoreBlog put up a fact sheet about Xbox Live to date, announcing they've hit 6,000,000 Xbox Live users four months ahead of schedule. Along with that, they have some spiffy trivia bullet points that might suit your fancy. First, Xbox Live members have unlocked around 300 million Achievements, netting a staggering total of 7.5 billion Gamerscore. Also, 5 billion MS points have been purchased for use over Xbox Live Marketplace. The top three played games worldwide on the 360 are Halo 2, Gears of War, and Hexic HD, and the top downloaded XBLA games Street Fighter II, Bankshot Billiards 2 and Marble Blast Ultra. So there's some cool news you can use. Or at least keep in mind next time you get an Achievement or use Marketplace. http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/03/06/live-hits-6-million-users-4-months-early/ I don't know about ya'll, but to me of the 3 major systems Live is by far the most advanced and user friendly online setup. Sony and Ninetendo have some catching up to do to catch the progress that Live has made.
I don't think Nintendo is even trying. And Sony wants to try something a little different it seems. It would be interesting to see how much of a factor the online strategies for each will be in the next 5-6 years.
I need some help from the xbox live crowd. I bought the wireless adapter today. The signal comes from another room in the house Im in. My computer detects as good of a signal as you can possible get, but the wireless adapter isnt picking up anything. Any advice? Im about to crush the 360 against the wall...that way, at least Ive taken it out of business before it gives me the 3 rings of death.
