The Offical FT.com Xbox Live & PS3 Online Post

A nice new look for this topic, Now adding Xbox and PS3 gamertags as the PS3 is picking up

Yes some of us own different consoles but no reason we can't all get along.

Got a good list going now :)

I will update the list here for easy reference :)

You can add friends on you xbox by going to http://www.xbox.com as you can sign in and add friends on there using copy and paste from here which should make it easier.

As for adding people on the PS3 it has been mentioned you can leave a note on your invite. It could be worth adding that you are from FT.com to avoid confusion.

Yes you can use XBL with a chipped XBOX, but you have to turn it off first. if you don't it will be blacklisted from the service. Furthermore, if you swap the HDD for a larger item (to play "backed up" games) XBL may spot the changes in partitioning and again blacklist the console.

If you want the big HDD and to play backups without the disc you'll have to live without XBL or get a second xbox (pick them up for 50 quid with a pile of games in free-ads etc)

yes unless you have a switchable chip, anf a stealth install

in short, easier to have 2 xboxes, one chipped and one standard

Top Ten Favourite Sayings & Practices
of the average pre-pubescent american xbl player

10 : SHODDY
This appears to be american for shotgun. No, really. Often used in phrases such as "Hey man, thats my shoddy. Gimme my goddamn shoddy you Bic™". Phrases such as this are often followed by a deliberate team kill on the part of the person who wants the weapon concerned. See : Bic™, TEAM KILL

9 : OWNED
To be beaten by another player. Often this will involve semi-homosexual practices such as teabagging. See : TEABAGGING, POON

8 : Bic™
A derogatory term used to insult and imply that you are a lesser player than everybody else. Used to punctuate almost every spoken sentence e.g. "Sit down Bic™".

7 : LAG
This the other thing Americans do in order to win games. There is little we can do about this. See : OWNED, SUSPEND

6 : POON
Again a perversion of an good and proper English word. Apparently it's too difficult for the majority of children to form the "oh" in the word "owned" and have resorted to using the term "POON" or "POONED". See : OWNED, Bic™, LAG

5 : TEABAGGING
A semi-homosexual practice where the male genetalia are pressed against the forehead of another male. This practice is carried out with an almost religious fervour to in-game caharacters following a kill by a player. See : POON, OWNED, TEAM KILL, Bic™

4 : TEAM KILL
Think online friendly fire. Imagine how these kids will behave if they ever make it into the armed forces. Oh no, wait, too late... See : SHODDY

3 : CAMPER
One who hides near start points in the game in order to achieve high scores by killing in-game characters as soon as they start the game with superior weaponary. This is usually carried out at long range in order to minimise risk to the camper. While this denies the player the "pleasure" of teabagging his now dead online foe, it allows them to achieve obscenely high scores. See : ONANIST, POON, OWNED, TEABAGGING

2 : SUSPEND
Suspend as in suspend button. This magic button is found on many, many US routers and DSL modems - it prevents data from arriving at the server xbox thus allowing the person / people playing behind the router to continue playing while all the opposing teams characters are suspended. This is a way of obtaining high scores with minimal effort. See : LAG, POON, Bic™, OWNED, ONANIST

1 : ONANIST
An English term for the atypical prepubescent US XBL player, one synonym sounds remarkably like the word "Banker". See : SUSPEND, LAG, CAMPER
