What's preventing you from accessing Xbox Live?

I don't understand why you can't get it. You don't have to pay for patches and access to Marketplace, you only need to pay for Gold to play online gaming.

you just got beaten up with facts :intergalactic: oh well more EE for me than :celebration:

we can't get xbox live because our internet is a little verizion aircard with 5 thousand internet usage a month and xbox live would eat through that. so no live till i get my own place.

Here's some more info on Metro 2033.

Metro 20033 is a FPS with a great story, atmosphere, and some stealth elements.
The story is set in the metro in Russia a few years after a nuclear war.
The FPS game play is good with a few twist, like when you’re above ground you need to switch filters for your gas mask.

Overall, a great game that is a little short. (Less than 10 hours)

Do you not have a friend with unlimited broadband, who would let you take your xbox to their house for an afternoon?

that sounds cool... kinda short though :confused: any good action adventure sandbox games for 20 bucks or less? also any RPG's for 20 or less?

one friend does... but he lives an hour away and i don't want the xbox damaged in the car with no ac.

If you can cope with turn based, Lost Odyssey has a wonderful story. Also another jrpg is Infinite Undiscovery, an acquired taste, but real time party based, with a lot of crafting options.

bleh tuurn based is for handhelds IMO. anything else. i would prefer a normal RPG not a jrpg.
