I'm sure some of this is my fault but still...

 

 I'm sitting here in my CHU playing Xbox and let me tell you without Live Xbox the Xbox just isn't the same!! The part that's my fault? I didn't do a license change on my arcade games. I thought because I was playing them at home on my new hard drive without the transfer I'd be ok, but no all my games are now "trial" games!! I have Gamer score for them but I guess my Xbox doesn't care about that!!

COD4 my favorite game sucks balls without Live. For some reason you can't play the downloadable maps in split screen and you can't play normal shit in a LAN setup. It's the same premade crap!!! Am I doing something wrong? When I hook up the Xbox to another Xbox will any of that change? Is the only way to see my gold cross on Live? This sucks!!

I'm super stoked about Halo: ODST, Forza 3, MW2, and AC2.

Hope yall have a good day!!!

Nope no clue here other than its just you. This Microsofts way of saying "NO" to piracy just like your Xbox live account is attributed to your credit/debit card.Without the license from the original console that each game was downloaded on.That's the whole point of license transfer you have to redownload arcade games to the new console or hard drive.The license will then be current for that console and hard drive anytime your account logs in or out of XBL. But if you fail to do this the only way to access your content with your new console or hard drive would to be sign into XBL and you have access to your stuff.As the license is already linked to your credit/debit card and your XBL account.

COD4 SUCKS when it comes to non-XBL play. No customizations, just 2 pre-made classes for each weapon type. And the choices were made by a moron. I want to cock-punch the guy who put the acog on the saw. They better fix that shit in MW2.
