I was chosen! A few ???

[Ground_Pounder]

Hey all,

I WAS PICKED! It's great, the only part I didn't like was the $40 shipping to canada... what's up with that! Anyone else in Northern Ontario chosen ? I'll play you, HA! I'm just wondering if there's any lag from up here ? And are there any commercially available games yet ? Because I know I won't like fever, and I have doubt's about Whacked, but i'm looking forward to GP... I was expecting ReVolt though :( I'll live!

How did everyone here connect there Xbox ? I have an open port on my router, can I just run a cable from there ? or do I need a second nic card? I'm not sure here.

Thanx for the help!

$40 for shipping geez that isnt even worth it just for 2 extra weeks play..... i would have just held off and bought it on release

If you are using a router, just connect the Xbox that
way with a regular cat5 patch cable. If your router
is set up to use DHCP it's even easier.

I just got picked too! I live in Ottawa... so I chose not to buy it. My friend has it anyway and I can go over to his house whenever. He shipped his through his dad in Florida.

Anyway.. yeah.
