do we have live support for xbox yet?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_Live
wiki says we do?

[GavinMannion]

No we don't

Go sign the petition www.sayyoursay.com

You can connect and play though... there are hundreds of us who are doing that

[GangStarr]

but let me guess i have to use a uk addy?

[GavinMannion]

Nope...

You can use a US one if you like

[Fudzy]

Do you use just any random name / address or is there verification behind the registration?

[GangStarr]

Dam... Looks like im goa have to wait

The Address check validates the postal code, that's it, so there's a lot of South Africa's registered at Buckingham palace

If you want to play, you don't have to wait, you can buy prepaid subs from the likes of Take 2, or just do it through the console with a credit card and "fudged" address.

If you don't, you're missing out in a big way

As Doobiwan said it validates the Postal Code.... Just use

E16 2SP - My old place

I would also highly recommend signing up, Live is 40% of the enjoyment of the Xbox

When I signed my boy up I had to use my credit card address ( so that it would validate the CC transaction ) but I added a UK postal code at the end. I had a very doubtful Nedbank on the phone the next day to ask if the Microsoft transaction was legit LOL
