I believe it comes with the required software for the more popular games, but support for more games is continually being added (via download).

PS: Get Firefox, put an end to bad spelling!

Go to options and make sure thats checked. If it is checked, uncheck it and recheck it, hit ok and exit firefox all the way and then open it again.

If it still doesn't work, right click the typing area you want to spell check and click on "spell check this field" if it isn't already checked.

Dont buy any intercoolers/ extra fans. They are known to cause the red ring of doom.

Ok I will try that now,

Is it the power drain or does the Xbox get too cold? If it is the power drain I could make my own and use a separate power supply if it needs it. But does it benefit from it?

Yep it's a power drain issue.

Trust mircosoft to make something that can do more harm than good.

Microsoft doesn't make intercoolers and even says not to use them...

I had a friend who's intercooler went out of control and totally wrecked his 360s case. I wouldn't suggest getting one. Also ironic is right, just goes to show you not a lot of stuff out there is going to stop the 360s lust for overheating wildly like a firecracker outta hell. :?

I got the xbox 360. yea :D :D :D :D :D

How come the 20gb hard drive that came with the pro only has 11gb usable space. Something like 5gbs is used for demos and those sort of things but that leaves 4gbs for system use. What i dont get is how can the xbox 360 need so much for system use? If windows xp uses about 1gb how can whats on the xbox 360 be so big?
