Sounds like a parental control issue. I believe you can set it to block M rated material from being downloaded...

So I was just messing around the the back of my xbox and my arm brushed up against the back of the harddrive and when it touched it, it felt like I got pricked by a needle or something. I didn't think nothing of it so I kept doing what I was doing, then it happened again, this time it was worse. I was like "wtf, son?" so I put my hand against the back of the HD and got nothing, then I put my arm(near my elbow) on it and felt it again. I then unplugged the xbox and put my arm on the same spot and got nothing. I've felt this "prick" before, it's like a static shock. So this leaves me wondering, why is there an electric current going through my 360 while it's off? Is this normal?

EDIT: Nevermind. I changed the outlet that it was plugged into and it doesn't seem to be doing it anymore.

When you sign up to hotmail, you have to enter your age. If your live account is linked to a hotmail account which has your age entered as less than that required to access mature content, then this could be what's causing the problem. If you log in to hotmail and lie about your age you should be OK. I had a similar problem when I first tried to access live because I just randomly clicked through the DOB section when creating my hotmail account.

I don't have a tough time figuring out achievements that make sense. I'm talking about dumb **** like on Lego Star Wars: TCS with the achievement "Shoot First" then in the description it says "Shoot First."

Now what the hell does that mean?

If it's proper, it's a reference to the cantina showdown between Han & Greedo on Mos Eisley. Originally Han shot first, then George Lucas changed it in the re-release of the late 90s so that Greedo shot first, and then I believe he changed it back to Han when the DVD set came out.

So you probably have to shoot/kill Greedo before he can shoot.

This would be my guess as to what "shoot first" means. And shame on the people who didn't know this.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

And Han totally shot first.

One of my friends told me Live will be free this summer. Is this true or is he just pulling my leg?
