Well as some of you may have read in my previous thread, I just got my 360! woohoo! Anyway, I am new to XBox and XBox live, and have some questions.
1. So my girlfriend, while not as into gaming as me, does enjoy to play sometimes, but not sure if you can set up multiple users on a 360. I want her to have her own user so when she makes accomplishments or whatever, we can keep track separately. We also want to race each other on PGR3. So as you can see I need some schooling on what can and can't be done in this regard.
2. I also am curious how the whole XBox live silver and gold memberships work. When I first turned on the xbox, i created my gamertag name, and I assume that since it gave me no errors that there is no one else on Live with that particular gamertag, although I'm not sure if it checks this in the initial setup phase. I would hate to have to change it at some point. In any case, I never put in any credit card info or my address or anything else like that, so I'm not sure if the free silver membership is activated or not. And, if I decide to go for a gold membership at some point I'm not sure how to upgrade this. I'm sure I will want to play online at some point.
Can some of you help to enlighten me on how all this works? I know I am clearly a novice, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance! :)
