If you ever want to play online then you'll need to accept the update anyway, there's no point in holding off.

No update = no live and you may aswell be banned!

That's the risk that some people take, when they play games too early, before the official release with their hard drive plugged in....and the inevitability is they get banned from Live sooner or later. Microsoft ain't stupid when it comes to money or big game releases, they did it with Halo 3 when that was coming out and I guarantee they will do it again with GTA IV.

It's only been on newsgroups a couple of days and already they got MS attention with the mass downloading and playing of it.

lm sure alot of these is dowm to luck and not checking the stelth patch .. well that was the main problem with halo , l played that well before the release date . cant remember the group l downloaded it from but the guys that downloaded the different one seem the be the ones that where banned , unless your witchy and plays anything at any time and never seen a ban ..

my m8 has 5.3 on his box and plays them when ever l give him a disc , its been ok for over a year ..

r names might be down on the next wave ??

A mate told me about xbconnect.

I downloaded it and gave it a try and hey presto it worked.
Instead of going through xbox live you set up or search for a game using system link on your xbox 360 game and runninng xbc on your PC/latop as long as you have a network set up.

here is a link to download xbc, I thoughtg it may be of use to you guys.
